Bella Thorne’s journey to her new role as amfAR youth ambassador began with a profound realization at last year’s Venice gala. The statistics she encountered, particularly the shocking fact that HIV is the third leading cause of death for women in reproductive years, ignited a deep sense of urgency within her.
In response, Thorne and amfAR have collaborated on six powerful PSAs to raise awareness and educate younger generations about the mission of amfAR. These initiatives aim to inspire and empower Gen Z, Millennials, and Gen X to get involved in the fight against HIV/AIDS.
Thorne’s preparation for the amfAR Gala in Cannes reflects her commitment to this cause. Her glamorous yet sophisticated style, inspired by the iconic fashion of the ’70s and ’80s, embodies the spirit of amfAR and the event itself. Her unwavering dedication to her own skincare routine, coupled with the expertise of her hair and makeup team, ensures that her presentation aligns perfectly with her message.
As Thorne prepares for the evening, she expresses her excitement about meeting influential figures and her unwavering commitment to using her voice to raise awareness and bring about change. Her personal experiences have instilled in her a deep understanding of the importance of support, and she is determined to be that beacon of hope for others.
Thorne’s advocacy for infectious diseases, education, and social justice stems from her deep-seated belief in the power of empowerment. She believes that every young person deserves to feel valued and heard, and she is dedicated to creating inclusive and supportive communities where all voices are celebrated.
