Bella Thorne: Stop speculating about me!

Bella Thorne has shot down rumours she is dating Tyler Posey.

The 17-year-old is firmly in the spotlight, especially now that her new movie The Duff has been released. With the fame and fortune comes speculation about her love life, which ramped up when she was spotted linking arms with 23-year-old actor-and-musician Tyler recently.

Now Bella has taken to Twitter to clear things up once and for all, revealing what looked like a romantic move was actually just a gesture of friendship.

"i dnw to address this again BUT sometimes u hold onto some 1 when there's tons of paps around 4 ur own safety. 2. i'm not dating everyone," she wrote.

"cont... that i am pictured with and lastly if u could get the names right when i am w/ someone that would be AWESOME. thanks. k. bye (sic)"

Bella and Tyler haven't exactly been secretive about their friendship and hung out together at the MTV Upfront Presentation earlier this month.

Rather than having boys on her mind, the redheaded star is thinking about catching up with her girlfriends.

"i actually need @Alexa_Yarnell to come to la and snuggle me, rub my head and just talk, (sic)" she later posted, with her pal responding: "@bellathorne two more weeks baby... Then we will have lots of cuddles and good laughs!! Face time me later (sic)"

But should Bella change her mind about dating, there could be one man waiting in the wings. Paris Hilton's model ex River Viiperi, 23, recently engaged in a Twitter Q&A, where he was asked to describe Bella in three words.

He admitted he'd never met her, but that he would guess she's "real, cute and a hard worker".
