Rob Lowe has blasted Bella Thorne for complaining about traffic chaos in Santa Barbara, Calif., as communities recover from the deadly mudslides that hit the county this week
The actress and singer has come under fire for an ill-advised tweet she posted and deleted on Wednesday after missing her rapper boyfriend Mod Sun’s show.

“F— u 101 (freeway) to santa barbra (sic),” Bella wrote. “I’m missing my boyfriends first date on his tour.”
Lowe shared a screenshot of the thoughtless tweet on Thursday on Instagram, and added the caption: “This attitude is why people hate celebrities/Hollywood.
“Bella, I’m sorry you were inconvenienced. We will try to move out our dead quicker.”
At least 17 people have lost their lives in the California mudslides and eight are still missing.
Lowe, who lives in the area affected, shared footage of the devastation online on Wednesday, writing: “More terrible stories of loss today. Friends missing, some gone forever. Pray for Montecito and know: EVERY day could be your last. Embrace that.”
Bella has since backtracked on her initial tweet, insisting she had no idea why the 101 freeway was so backed up as she tried to get to her boyfriend’s show.
“F— just caught up on some news had no idea why the 101 was shut down… get home to your family safe,” she tweeted.
