Watch Millie Bobby Brown call out red carpet photographer who referred to husband Jake Bongiovi as her ‘boyfriend'
Millie Bobby Brown put a red carpet photographer on blast Monday night.
While posing at the 'Electric State' premiere in Los Angeles, the 'Stranger Things' star beckoned for her husband, Jake Bongiovi, to join her — and paused when a shutterbug asked, 'Can we get your boyfriend?'
Brown, 21, firmly declared, 'That's not my boyfriend.'
The actress then laughed off the mistake and accepted the photographer's profuse apologies, saying, 'It's OK.'
Brown was all smiles in subsequent shots with Jon Bon Jovi's son but did not engage in any PDA with her partner.
'I love that they're like no you got it wrong so we're not going to kiss actually,' one X user joked.
Another observed, 'He was blushing when she said that! He was so proud that his wife was standing on business for him!'
Brown married Bongiovi, 22, in May 2024, and the couple held a second wedding ceremony in Italy five months later.
They have been together since 2021, with the actor getting down on one knee in April 2023.
The Emmy nominee, who channeled Pamela Anderson with her updo at Monday's event, recently spoke to Vanity Fair about her decision to walk down the aisle at a young age.
'We were pretty united going into it,' she explained in her cover story earlier this month. 'We talked about our political views, what kind of family we want to build, the kind of home we want to live in, the kind of relationship we're looking for, the kind of careers we want.'
Brown clarified that she put a lot of thought into the 'important' choice to tie the knot.
'We wanted to make sure we were making the right one,' she told the magazine. 'I knew I was. It always felt right with him.'
Elsewhere in the interview, the 'Enola Holmes' star spoke about learning the difference between 'loving someone and being in love' while married.
She asked, 'If we're not fully invested, then what's the point? We have to be, and we always have been.'

Inside Gold Derby's first digital issue
I'll admit it: I don't love gambling, so odds are always a bit of mystery for me. What I do love, though, is watching the odds change on as momentum builds and more awards experts and thousands of users share and update their predictions on our website. Who's up and who's down in a given race can swing on a big episode (that shocking death on The Last of Us), a scene-stealing speech (looking at you, Carrie Coon), or a savvy, headline-grabbing FYC stunt that cements the show in the minds of voters as ballots land in their inboxes. Never let it be said that Emmy season is boring. While there will always be repeat nominees who seem to earn their slots on name recognition alone, this season promises plenty of surprises. Who would have predicted an unknown British teenager would break our hearts in Adolescence; Owen Cooper is the frontrunner for supporting actor in a limited series in his acting debut. Or that Noah Wyle would make a return to his scrubs, albeit in a far more sober role as Dr. Robby in The Pitt. Or that The Studio creators Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg would recruit a star-studded ensemble, from Scorsese to Cranston, to ruthlessly and brilliantly satirize our very business. (I can't wait for the Season 2 episode that takes down award campaigning.)

Click here to see the complete digital magazine. Even we're overwhelmed by the sheer number of worthy contenders across all categories. Here, we've assembled the ultimate voters' guide, with deep dives into all of the key categories, including interviews with the top contenders, from the front-runners to the challengers, along with the latest predictions and analysis as we navigate the twists and turns heading into the final stretch before voting starts on June 12. For our cover story, we summoned our innies and outies for a history lesson led by the cast and creators of Apple TV+'s Severance, the mind-bending drama that accomplished the rare feat of growing in its second season by every measure — viewership, buzz, critical acclaim (and time will tell if it can top its first season Emmy haul). At our exclusive roundtable interview, the cast were still buzzing over the fan reception at the previous night's screening at the Dolby Theater. Executive Editor Marcus Errico, who co-wrote the story with Kevin Polowy, told series stars Britt Lower and Zach Cherry that the innies had become the Nerd Beatles, prompting Lower to ask Cherry which Beatle that made him. 'Pete Best,' he deadpanned. (Fun fact: We also asked the cast about the first awards they ever won — and you'll never guess who claimed first place in a roller disco championship.) We also have some celebrating of our own to do — this year marks the 25th anniversary of Gold Derby, so we thought it was worth a trip down memory lane. It was also 25 years ago that The West Wing made its Emmy debut: The Aaron Sorkin-led drama won the first of four consecutive Emmys for Best Drama that year, and would go one to nab 96 nominations across its seven seasons, winning 26 in all. 'I'll never forget the love for that show,' Rob Lowe told us back then. 'It matched the love we had making it.' Which shows will we be still be talking about 25 years from now? Place your bets now!

What ‘The Handmaid's Tale' star Elisabeth Moss ‘stressed about' for a year and a half while filming the final season
Fresh off the series finale, The Handmaid's Tale cast and creatives gathered Wednesday at the Directors Guild of America in Los Angeles to reflect on the Emmy-winning show's full-circle moments — and to reveal a surprise guest. Calling the final scenes of the six-season series 'a very meta experience to film,' star, director, and executive producer Elisabeth Moss described the moment her character, June Osborne, walks through the ruins of the Waterfords' home and reflects on her past as a handmaid, known as Offred, in the Boston household. More from GoldDerby The nontraditional methods 'Deli Boys' casting director used to find an 'authentic' ensemble Guest acting Emmy odds: See how Kaitlyn Dever, Jeffrey Wright, Martin Scorsese, Bryan Cranston, and other hopefuls stack up TV directors roundtable: 'American Primeval,' 'The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power,' 'Paradise' 'It was a really beautiful experience, because we had a closed set just to keep it really nice and calm,' said Moss, who directed four episodes this season, including the finale, during the FYC event. 'Every single member of this crew took it upon themselves that this was going to be the best scene they had ever done, and everything had to be perfect.' Based on the 1985 novel by Margaret Atwood, The Handmaid's Tale imagines an alternate America overtaken by Gilead, a theocratic totalitarian regime where women are forced into reproductive servitude. The dystopian series premiered on Hulu in 2017, as a new political administration took power in the United States — coincidentally led by the same official who entered office as Season 6 debuted earlier this year. 'When I read [creator] Bruce Miller's words, I felt that it was such a powerful message of rebellion, of fighting — a very feminist story,' said executive producer Warren Littlefield during the panel. 'This was developed in the Obama years. We could see the far right on the horizon throughout the world. But we loved the message, echoed so much in this final season: Don't give up the fight.' In the finale, Boston is liberated from Gilead's control by American forces. June, now a free woman, walks the city and reconnects with a familiar face — Emily Malek, the first resistance fighter she encountered in the series, played by Alexis Bledel. Bledel joined the panel onstage as a surprise guest and reflected on what it meant to reunite the two characters. 'The fact that the finale brings us full circle and has June and Emily walking together in freedom felt so meaningful and seemed to inform so much about each of their journeys, as well as the way they were intertwined from the beginning,' Bledel said. 'Being back on set in the context of freedom felt very different. I almost expected to have the bonnet on again.' Moss admitted she had heard early on that Emily's character might return for the finale — but making it happen was the challenge. 'Our first official day one was with Alexis. And she's why June became who she is,' Moss said. 'Once I heard that, I was just basically stressed about it for the next year and a half — whether or not we were actually going to be able to get her to come back and then keep it a secret for so long.' The two-part panel also featured co-showrunners Eric Tuchman and Yahlin Chang, as well as cast members Yvonne Strahovski, Ann Dowd, O-T Fagbenle, Madeline Brewer, Amanda Brugel, Sam Jaeger, Ever Carradine, and Josh Charles, who shared pivotal turning points for their characters. Strahovski said getting Serena to a point of apology by the series' end had everything to do with June. 'I think so much of her journey has to do with June's belief in Serena — that she can ultimately change — and that never wavered,' Strahovski said. 'That's what allows her to evolve. If she didn't have someone in her life forcing her to see what she has done, I don't think she would have gotten there.' While The Handmaid's Tale is concluding, the story will continue in The Testaments, a sequel that will center on Dowd's character, Aunt Lydia. Littlefield gave a preview of the upcoming Hulu series, which Moss is also executive producing. It's based on Atwood's 2019 novel of the same name. 'Four years after the end of Handmaid's Tale, and we're in a world that is Virginia, Maryland,' Littlefield said. 'We're away from the Boston area, and this is from the point of view of the young women coming of age in Lydia's school.' He continued, 'These young women have never known a world other than Gilead, and that world is bright and beautiful and seductive — and yet it's still Gilead. And so that's the realization. Lydia has started the school to try and reform from within, rather than blow up Gilead.' Moss herself has grown significantly since the show's first season, a transformation she credits to Miller and Littlefield. 'They were the original executive producers that I worked with the most, and they recognized that the female voice was really necessary in that position to the show, and they gave me a seat at the table when they honestly didn't have to,' Moss said. 'I'll always be forever grateful to the both of them for that.'
