Millie Bobby Brown, 21, goes makeup-free after trolls say she looks ‘old'
Millie Bobby Brown proudly showed off her makeup-free face after haters said she looked 'old' at the premiere of her new movie, 'The Electric State,' on Monday.
While promoting her brand Florence By Mills' spot acne patches on Instagram Friday, the 'Stranger Things' actress revealed she's still 'figuring out' the best way to take care of her skin.
'Hey guys it's Mills here, I don't know if you can see but my break out is pretty bad right now,' she said in the clip she posted without any filters.
'I'm 21 years old, I'm still figuring out what my skin likes and what it doesn't.'
After the video was uploaded, many fans praised the 'Enola Holmes' star for being so candid and vulnerable.
'mills your skin is beautiful! It's really sweet that you show your real self and normalize something completely natural
thanks to you, i've started accepting my own skin more
and flo acne patches help me so much! I LOVE YOU
,' one person wrote in the comments section.
Another added, 'mills remember you are amazing and beautiful your skin is perfect!!
'
'So pretty like always!!
,' a third netizen said.
Brown's makeup-free reveal comes after people questioned her looks earlier in the week.
At the Los Angeles premiere of 'Electric State,' Brown walked the carpet alongside her husband, Jake Bongiovi, and wore an Annie's Ibiza metallic gold and bronze striped embroidered gown with a structured corset top and flowing train.
The outfit also included a matching bolero jacket with shoulder pads.
The 'Godzilla: King of the Monsters' actress accessorized her look with a gold choker necklace and diamond earrings from De Beers, while wearing her blond hair in a messy updo with bangs down to her eyelashes.
Following the event, online trolls questioned whether the British star looked age-appropriate. Some even compared her to former 'Baywatch' star Pamela Anderson.
'If this was on someone like Jane Fonda, Jessica Lange or even Pamela Anderson it would have been chefs kiss! She's way too young for this look eek,' one commenter said at the time.
'Literally had to double check [she] turned 21 the other day and not 40,' another wrote.
Brown, however, clapped back at the haters by posting a screenshot of a British Vogue story with the headline 'No One Cares How Old You Think Millie Bobby Brown Looks' to her Instagram Story on Thursday.
'@britishvogue thank you,' she simply wrote.

Thanks To Kate Moss, Your Fantasy Festival Wardrobe Is Now Within Reach
Among the thousands of famous photographs of Kate Moss, there's one that has come to be emblematic of several things at once: a sybaritic British summer, the early noughties boho aesthetic, the dawn of festival fashion, the supermodel's own inimitable style. She's walking through a field at Glastonbury in 2003, wearing a pale pink tunic dress with black fringed moccasin boots, a printed silk scarf knotted around her hips and her face semi-obscured by a combination of sunglasses and a curtain of dirty-blonde hair. 'I went to get some breakfast on my own,' Moss recalls of this Glasto outing. Jon Furniss The look pre-dated Instagram and influencers, and yet it had the sort of impact today's young tastemakers could scarcely dream of. Some 22 years on, now that festival wardrobes are curated with military precision and documented ad nauseam online, it's interesting to contemplate exactly how much thought went into Kate's oft-emulated outfit. Not a lot, it turns out. 'Planned outfits never work for me,' says Moss with a shrug. 'I don't do that.' She couldn't have known the clothes she threw together that year would ultimately become a sort of cultural touchstone, but she did get some inkling of the stir she'd created over the course of the weekend. 'I went to get some breakfast on my own, and there was one photographer,' she remembers of that morning outing in her pink dress. 'It wasn't a paparazzi-fest then.' The next day, a friend told her she'd made the papers. 'We'd gone to see Chas & Dave and he told me: 'You're on the cover of The Sunday Times,'' she says with her signature cackle. 'I was like, 'Don't be stupid!''

Halle Bailey And DDG Custody Battle, Explained
The custody battle between singer and actress Halle Bailey and her ex-boyfriend, the rapper DDG, has heated up as DDG asked a judge to block Bailey from taking their infant son with her to Italy, alleging she poses a risk to their son's safety because she has previously threatened self-harm. DDG requested a restraining order against Bailey in Los Angeles court on Wednesday and asked a judge to block her from taking Halo, their 17-month-old son, to Italy with her, alleging Bailey would pose 'imminent emotional and psychological risk to the minor child based on repeated, documented threats of self-harm.' DDG, whose real name is Darryl Dwayne Granberry Jr., alleged in court filings Bailey once took his firearm and left their house while threatening to harm herself, stating she 'environment of emotional distress and danger within the home,' and his filings contain text messages appearing to show Bailey threatening self-harm, Billboard reported. Bailey, 25, and DDG, 27, have been locked in a custody battle over their son since Bailey filed a restraining order against him in May, accusing him of physical and verbal abuse, including an alleged incident in which he slammed her face on a steering wheel in front of their son. Bailey also alleged DDG has riled up his fans to send online hate to Bailey by accusing her of keeping their son from him on his livestreams, and she detailed another incident in which she filed a police report after DDG allegedly threw her phone from a car window. A judge granted Bailey temporary custody of their son in May. The couple split in October 2024 after nearly three years of dating, at the time stating they were 'still best friends' and planned to co-parent their son. Forbes has reached out to lawyers representing both Bailey and DDG for comment. Bailey is slated to depart for Italy to film a movie for two months on June 7, Billboard reported, and a judge is expected to rule on whether she will be allowed to bring her son. The court also set June 24 as the date for a hearing on Bailey and DDG's restraining orders against one another. Bailey and DDG began dating in January 2022, though they did not publicly acknowledge their relationship on social media until March of that year. Bailey gave birth to their son in December 2023, announcing his birth in an Instagram post the following month. Bailey had largely kept her pregnancy a secret despite fan speculation, stating months after her child's birth at the Essence Black Women in Hollywood ceremony she 'had no obligation to expose him, me or my family to that unyielding spotlight.' DDG first started his career in entertainment as a YouTube content creator, posting vlogs and prank videos. He dropped out of college in 2016, stating he made more money from his YouTube careers, after which he started releasing music. He has since released four albums, including his only charting hit in the United States, "Moonwalking in Calabasas,' and he has collaborated with artists including Lil Yachty, Gunna and DaBaby. He maintains active profiles on YouTube and streaming platform Twitch, where he has 3.6 million subscribers and 1.6 million followers, respectively. Bailey first rose to fame as one half of Chloe x Halle, a singing duo with her older sister, Chloe Bailey. The two first garnered attention for singing Beyoncé songs on their YouTube channel, racking up more than 22 million views on a cover of her song 'Pretty Hurts' in 2013. Bailey and her sister have been considered protégés of Beyoncé, whose company Parkwood Entertainment signed them for a six-album deal in 2016. Chloe x Halle have released two studio albums, 'The Kids Are Alright' in 2018 and 'Ungodly Hour' in 2020, though they have since pursued solo careers. Halle Bailey achieved wider recognition for a series of high-profile acting roles, including the lead role in 'The Little Mermaid' live-action remake and a supporting role in 'The Color Purple,' in 2023. Her role in the former film made her the target of racist backlash from critics who felt the casting of a Black Ariel was unfaithful to the original animated film, prompting Disney to defend her and Bailey to say it is important for her to 'represent all of these little young Black and brown boys and girls.'
