If Bella Thorne Was Trying to Hit on Cole Sprouse, She Failed Miserably

Her Campus Placeholder Avatar Amanda Goecke

Let’s be real here. We’ve all done something pretty embarrassing in an attempt to flirt with a guy. However, if it’s any consolation, Bella Thorne may have just taken the cake in what is one of the biggest flirting fails ever—with Cole Sprouse, nonetheless!

So, what exactly went down here? Apparently, Cole posted a photo to Instagram that caught Bella’s eye. So what’s a girl to do? Slide into his DMs, of course!

 

Oh the pomposity. Casting call from @stevenkleinstudio for @vman Styling: @mjellenberger

A post shared by Cole Sprouse (@colesprouse) on

Bella sent the photo in a DM to his account followed by a simple “wow.” But it turns out, it wasn’t Cole’s account! 

Yup. Bella worked up the courage to slide into the DMs of a fan account rather than the real Cole Sprouse’s account, and the fan account owner took to Twitter with the receipts.

Damn. If Bella has taught me one thing, it’s definitely to double check *everything* before pressing send!
