Millie Bobby Brown, actress from Stranger Things, has spoken out against body shaming in the media. In an emotional Instagram post, she expressed her frustration with critics who have publicly criticized her appearance.
Brown shared several headlines that have ridiculed her for her new look, including “What has Millie Bobby Brown done to her face?” and “Why are Gen Zers like Millie Bobby Brown ageing so badly?” She said this criticism is not journalism but bullying, adding that adult writers dissecting her face, body, and choices is disturbing.
The actress refused to apologize for growing up and becoming a woman on her own terms. Instead, she encouraged others to pay compliments rather than criticizing. Brown’s comments sparked a wave of support from other actors, including Sarah Jessica Parker, Matthew Modine, Sharon Stone, Aaron Paul, and Mckenna Grace, who praised her courage and confidence.
Brown is currently promoting her new film Electric State, which also stars Chris Pratt. She has been making headlines for her emotional farewell speech as she wrapped up the fifth season of Stranger Things.
