Social media has been flooded with creative and stunning costumes after Halloween with many celebrities bagging praises for their looks. However, Bella Thorne received ample attention for her look, not for the best reasons.

The 22-year-old Midnight Sun actor turned to her Instagram to give a glimpse of her Halloween look, which did not sit very well with social media users.

Sporting a bruised-up and bloodied look, Bella shared the photos with the caption: “Hire me for your Halloween makeup I got u boo."

Soon after, the actor was getting called out by users over the insensitive glorification of physical abuse, which many netizens thought could trigger a massive lot.

"I just find this post slightly triggering and surprising as she is a strong spokeswoman against abuse and such," wrote one user, while another added: "Why is glamourising being physically abused culturally appropriate during Halloween?”

On the other hand, there were some loyal fans who perceived the situation differently, as one user wrote: “Girl is this really make-up because it looks real and I want to beat up whoever did it to you.”
