Bella Thorne is bikini clad on the cover of Seventeen magazine, but the teen actress covers up when she's dating. Also, news that 'Community's Ken Jeong will be joining the cast of her upcoming movie 'The DUFF."

Thorne, who starred on Disney's "Shake It Up," revealed in an interview to Seventeen magazine that she made her boyfriend wait six weeks for their first kiss.

"Tristan [Klier] was not a relationship guy before me. On our first date, he thought I was going to be just like the other girls he had met who would always give it up and kiss him right away...I waited six weeks - I had to make sure he was in it to win it," says the actress.

Thorne also reveals that she's a bit of a homebody and doesn't buy into the Hollywood party scene. "Honestly, I'd rather sit in my bed and watch Netflix," she said. "That is me all day long. Or my mom's like 'Bella, aren't you going to hang out with your friends?' And I'm like, 'I can't! I have math to do.' I can't be behind, I'll freak out."

Ken Jeong (Community, The Hangover) is in final negotiations to join The DUFF, a teen comedy coming from CBS Films according to the Hollywood Reporter. Ari Sandel is set to direct the film adaptation of the Kody Keplinger novel of the same title.

Mae Whitman (Arrested Development, Parenthood) is starring as Bianca Piper in The DUFF. The DUFF is about Bianca, an off-beat honor roll student who discovers she is considered the DUFF: designated ugly fat friend by slimy school hottie Wesley Rush. As things aren't so great at home, Bianca is desperate for a distraction and ends up kissing Wesley. And likes it. Then it turns out that Wesley isn't such a bad listener, and his life is pretty screwed up, too. Bianca soon realizes with absolute horror that she's falling for the guy she thought she hated more than anyone.

Bella Thorne is already cast in the movie, which is set to shoot in Atlanta in late May.

Jeong will play one of Bianca's teachers.
