Bella - “Welcome To My World”
There’s a good chance that you follow Bella on Instagram (along with a whopping 18 million others) and that you know she leads a colourful life. You may have even seen some pretty wild evidence of it up close and personal. But recently, she tells us, there’s been a shift. In her quieter moments, Bella has been digging deep, figuring out what makes her tick, defining who she wants to be, and setting some hard-core goals that touch on every area of her life, from getting reacquainted with the gym to losing some psychological baggage that’s been weighing her down for years. The timing of these goals isn’t coincidental – Bella has a lot in store this year, and she wants to be on her game. She recently starred in Midnight Sun, in which she plays a young girl sheltered at home since childhood with a life-threatening sensitivity to sunlight; she’s hoping to go on tour with her band; and she would like to work with teenagers to help improve their self-esteem (Bella was a victim of bullying as a child). Here’s what else lies ahead for Bella.

WORK THE WEIGHT ROOM

“I was filming Midnight Sun in Canada at the beginning of 2017 for four months. It was 20 degrees below zero out, and we were shooting really heavy material all night. I also did all my own stunts. It made me not want to work out. Then I started another project and got lazy. But I recently decided it’s time to go back to the gym. I get stressed and antsy when I don’t go. I won’t do cardio – because it makes me lose too much weight, and my boobs are always the first thing to go – but I will do a lot of weightlifting, boxing, pilates, and hot yoga.”
