Bella Thorne's bikini-clad photos are pretty much the talk of the town lately. For one thing, the 16-year-old singer-actress has dared to show off some (or too much) skin for her Candie's and Kohl's promotional pics. Aside from noting her beautiful and sexy figure, it seems that everyone is left stunned by the fact that she is just a teenager.

Just this January, Bella Thorne bikini body landed a spread in Candie's catalogue of flirty clothing for young women. Egotastic reports that Disney might be controlling everything that goes in and out of Bella Thorne's career, but it's plain to see that she is also trying to break from the bondage 'Hannah Montana' star Miley Cyrus used to struggle to break free from.

The site further claims that Bella Thorne's bikini photos might already be her first step in engaging into a more grown-up style, and that more mature photoshoots might be underway for this young star.

On the other hand, fans and critics can't help but marvel over the fact that Bella Thorne's bikini photos don't seem to show her real age as a 16-year-old Disney Channel star.

Many of them commented on Thorne's sexy photos that landed online.

"I could never believe that she is just 16(or 15 last year)," a fan wrote.

"aww she is so beautiful but she looks 25 and not really 16," a Gonza Go commented.

"Gee....a girl in a bikini. How risque. It's not like you can't see this on every single beach in America any Saturday it's above 75 degrees. How ridiculous is this country? Get over it," another one wrote.

Additionally, there are also critics claiming that Thorne might just be the next Miley Cyrus of the showbiz industry.

"The next Miley Cyrus has arrived," a Skipper Tom commented.

"Right!! This is going to be the next SEXY thing!" an Annabelle Charlize Swingler wrote.

Now the thing about Bella Thorne though is she actually doesn't try too much in flaunting her more mature side.

In a recent interview with Us Weekly, the singing model revealed that she basically relies on her fast metabolism to maintain her bikini body.

"Between the film, the album and the book series, I'm not working out now. I get my workout running around," Thorne said. "I eat a lot."

Interestingly, the 16-year-old actress revealed that she is "so lazy" and she eats whenever she wants "but I also watch what I eat and snack throughout the day."

Aside from her perfect curves, Bella Thorne is also taking a lot of praises and compliments for her equally beautiful face with or without make-up.

HollywoodLife reported last week that the dashing 'Shake It Up' star looks very clean and natural when she does not wear any make-up.

Given her sheer beauty and appealing personality, it is not surprising that Bella Thorne is getting much attention and more projects lately.

She is currently working on an upcoming comedy titled 'Blended' alongside Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore. Thorne is reportedly playing Sandler's onscreen daughter named Hilary.

Apart from this, the Disney Channel star is set to release her debut album soon that features a collaboration with her 'Shake It Up' co-star Zendaya.
