\n\tAt 21 years old, Millie Bobby Brown has had an atypical coming-of-age experience, as hers has unfolded in the public eye. As she grows older, the actress finds herself increasingly compelled to push back against the scrutiny and criticism she has faced regarding her appearance. <\/p>\n
\n\t\u201cIf me being blonde or wearing more make-up really bothers you, I\u2019m going to address it \u2013 not just for myself, but for every other girl who wants to try a new hairstyle or wear a red lip,\u201d Brown told British Vogue<\/em>. \u201cIt\u2019s, like, get off my fucking case, you know? I am 21. I am going to have fun and play and be myself.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\tEarlier this year, Brown shared a video calling out the Daily Mail <\/em>for publishing articles stating that she looks old. \u201c\u2018Oh my God, what has she done with her face? Why has she gone blonde? She looks 60 years old,’\u201d she summarized to British Vogue. After her video was published, she said, \u201cThey were like, \u2018Millie stuns in this dress.\u2019 How do you change your mind that quickly?\u201d<\/p>\n \n\tBrown acknowledged that she holds little control over how individual people discuss her looks on social media, but has seen success in calling out larger institutions that she believes have engaged in bullying her.<\/p>\n \t\tTrending Stories<\/p>\n<\/h2>\n \n\t\u201cI respect journalism. I love reading articles on my favourite people and hearing what they\u2019re up to. I understand that there\u2019s paparazzi, even though it\u2019s invasive, even though it feels like shit to me \u2013 I know that\u2019s your job,\u201d she continued. \u201cBut don\u2019t, in your headline, slam me at the get-go. It is so wrong and it is bullying, especially to young girls who are new to this industry and are already questioning everything about it.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\tBrown wants to extend this sense of protection to the daughter she adopted with husband Jake Bongiovi. \u201cIf she chooses to share her personality one day with the world, like I did when I was young, that\u2019s something we\u2019d support,\u201d she said. \u201cBut right now, as she\u2019s so little\u2026 As her parents, it\u2019s our job to protect her from that.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" At 21 years old, Millie Bobby Brown has had an atypical coming-of-age experience, as hers has unfolded in the public eye.
