Hollywood Popular Artists

We love the work Disney starlet Bella Thorne does with Get Schooled and The Thirst Project, but we can't help but wonder — does this busy bee ever have time to do normal teenager things? We asked, and it turns out, when Bella's not saving the world, she likes to play with animals, go to baseball games with friends and settle one of the world's most controversial debates: Ryan Gosling or Justin Timberlake?

+ Watch Bella Thorne talk about puppy love.

Bella loves the Humane Society and the work they do to find homes for displaced animals. "The Humane Society is so great to work with," she says. "Because everyone there is so nice and supportive, and they're all animal lovers like me." Volunteer at your local Humane Society if you're in puppy love like Bella.

+ Watch Bella Thorne take our pop culture quiz.

When we quizzed Bella on her fellow Disney alumni we learned that she'd pick Ryan Gosling over Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears over Christina Aguilera, and that she's a fan of Merida from "Brave." She totes loves that they're both redheads, but she's Team Merida mainly because "she's not afraid to stick up for herself, and be out there and different."

+ Watch Bella Thorne on keepin' it real.

Bella stays so grounded in Hollywood with the help of her family (shout-out to her awesome mom, Tamara, whom we met along with Bella) and friends. Whether you're a superstar or a rising one, it's important to have a strong support system of people who love you.
