As all celeb girls effectively know, with a spate of public appearances and picture opps comes unwarranted criticism and drained opinions. Brown, who started her profession as a baby star on Stranger Things, is not any exception in fact. Over the previous few weeks, she has been picked aside by “followers” and the media alike, for “ageing poorly.”
“Disillusioned folks can’t deal with seeing a woman grow to be a lady on her phrases, not theirs,” she wrote of the discourse on Instagram final week. On her March 11 look on the Call Her Daddy podcast, she elaborated, saying, “A factor that I get loads is like, ‘Oh my God, she appears like 40.’”
She continues, “And I’m like, effectively yeah, you probably did meet me after I was 10…I’m 21, it’s been 10 years. She grows. My face like, grew. What would you like me to do about that?”
It’s not simply her appears, nonetheless, that folks appear to have taken problem with. Her fashion has additionally been the topic of relentless chatter on-line, with haters latching onto the weak suggestion that she ought to “costume her age,” no matter meaning.
In the feedback of her Instagram in addition to on different vogue accounts, I’ve seen well-meaning critics not directly come for her style by way of assaults on her stylist or her glam workforce. “Girl wants a brand new stylist asap,” reads one remark under a photo of the star sporting an Annie’s Ibiza hooded costume on the 2025 Brit Awards. Another, this one shared underneath a photograph of the actor’s recent Tamara Ralph couture look, stated: “She wants to fireside her glam workforce.”
All are lacking one vital level: Millie Bobby Brown is not going to put on something that Millie Bobby Brown does not need to put on. Blaming her workforce removes her company. As she’s stated many times, she’s not a baby—she is a lady with energy, means, and entry. Isn’t that each fashion-obsessed individual’s dream?
Brown, like every 21-year-old, is experimenting together with her fashion. For proof, simply take a look at her latest transformation from mousy brunette to bombshell blonde. She appears to be significantly preoccupied with Pamela Anderson’s ‘90s fashion recently, and even had the privilege of raiding the Baywatch star’s archive for her method-dressing press tour.
“The Electric State is predicated within the ’90s,” she defined to Call Her Daddy’s Alex Cooper. “So I used to be like, ‘I need the whole lot I put on on this press tour to be ’90s archive. So I used to be like, ‘Who are the foremost blondes within the ’90s?’”
After connecting by way of a mutual pal, Anderson “pulled me a complete rack of garments that had been simply unbelievable,” Brown stated.
