Millie Bobby Brown Speaks Out Against Media Bullying

Millie Bobby Brown has spoken out against the intense public scrutiny young women face, especially those growing up in the spotlight. Recently, she became a target of body-shaming during The Electric State tour, with critics claiming she looked older than her age. In an emotional Instagram video, Brown addressed the criticism and the broader issue of tearing young women down.

“I want to address something bigger than me — something that affects every young woman growing up under public scrutiny,” she said.

Brown recalled starting her career at 10 years old and growing up in front of the world. “For some reason, people can’t seem to grow with me. They act like I should still look like I did in Stranger Things Season 1. And because I don’t, I’m now a target,” she shared.

She highlighted hurtful headlines that picked apart her looks and personal choices. “This isn’t journalism. This is bullying,” she stated. “It’s disturbing that adult writers spend time dissecting my face, body and choices. And when those articles come from women? Even worse.”

Brown stood firm in her response to the criticism. “I won’t shrink myself to fit unrealistic expectations. I won’t apologise for growing up or for how I look or dress,” she declared. She challenged people to change their mindset, asking, “Why criticise when it’s so easy to be kind?”

She ended with a powerful message: “Let’s do better. Not just for me, but for every young girl who deserves to grow up without fear of being torn apart for simply existing.”

On the work front, Brown is set to star in The Electric State with Chris Pratt, Ke Huy Quan, Stanley Tucci and Anthony Mackie. The film premieres on Netflix on March 7.
