While the platinum look, paired with \u201890s and Y2K-inspired ensembles, generated excitement among fans who hoped that it was Brown\u2019s way of hinting at her role in a Britney Spears biopic, other\u00a0publications criticized\u00a0the actor for having \u201caged far beyond her years.\u201d<\/p>\n<aside class=\"instagram\" data-uri=\"cms.cnn.com\/_components\/instagram\/instances\/cm7ueeyo3000p3b6o7t1dl357@published\" data-editable=\"settings\" data-article-gutter=\"true\">\n<blockquote class=\"instagram__post\"><p><iframe id=\"instagram-embed-0\" class=\"instagram-media instagram-media-rendered\" src=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/DGwZgLXSJuH\/embed\/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=538&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fedition.cnn.com&amp;rp=%2F2025%2F03%2F04%2Fstyle%2Fmillie-bobby-brown-responds-to-media-criticism-appearance%2Findex.html#%7B%22ci%22%3A0%2C%22os%22%3A5921.69999999553%7D\" height=\"878\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-instgrm-payload-id=\"instagram-media-payload-0\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/aside>\n<p class=\"paragraph inline-placeholder vossi-paragraph\" data-uri=\"cms.cnn.com\/_components\/paragraph\/instances\/cm7udrkio00043b6ojrc1rhqh@published\" data-editable=\"text\" data-component-name=\"paragraph\" data-article-gutter=\"true\">Brown, whose career in the entertainment industry began at 10 years old, fired back at articles that questioned the changes in her appearance as she matured. Among those she called out had headlines such as \u201cWhat has Millie Bobby Brown done to her face?\u201d and \u201cMillie Bobby Brown mistaken for someone\u2019s mom as she guides younger sister Ava through LA\u201d.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph inline-placeholder vossi-paragraph\" data-uri=\"cms.cnn.com\/_components\/paragraph\/instances\/cm7udrkio00053b6opdpjyt9m@published\" data-editable=\"text\" data-component-name=\"paragraph\" data-article-gutter=\"true\">\u201cI grew up in front of the world, and for some reason, people can\u2019t seem to grow with me,\u201d said\u00a0Brown on Instagram. \u201cInstead, they act like I\u2019m supposed to stay frozen in time, like I should look the way I did on \u2018Stranger Things\u2019 Season 1. And now because I don\u2019t, I\u2019m a target.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph inline-placeholder vossi-paragraph\" data-uri=\"cms.cnn.com\/_components\/paragraph\/instances\/cm7udrkio00063b6opx7qedv8@published\" data-editable=\"text\" data-component-name=\"paragraph\" data-article-gutter=\"true\">Brown, now 21, pointed out that the focus on her looks was not only cruel but reflected the unrealistic standards directed at young women. \u201cThe fact that adult writers are spending their time dissecting my face, my body, my choices, it\u2019s disturbing,\u201d she said. \u201cThe fact that some of these articles are written by women? Even worse.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph inline-placeholder vossi-paragraph\" data-uri=\"cms.cnn.com\/_components\/paragraph\/instances\/cm7udrkio00073b6omrfdkzdy@published\" data-editable=\"text\" data-component-name=\"paragraph\" data-article-gutter=\"true\">She isn\u2019t the only star who has fought back at judgmental comments made about their appearance in recent years. In 2023,\u00a0Madonna similarly took\u00a0to Instagram after photos of her performing at the Grammys went viral \u2014 sparking comments that she was \u201cobsessed with plastic surgery\u201d (the singer has never publicly addressed rumors of cosmetic enhancements). The 66-year-old musician wrote that \u201cageism and misogyny\u2026 permeates the world we live in,\u201d adding that the world \u201crefuses to celebrate women past the age of 45.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph inline-placeholder vossi-paragraph\" data-uri=\"cms.cnn.com\/_components\/paragraph\/instances\/cm7udrkio00083b6ob0p7cs7e@published\" data-editable=\"text\" data-component-name=\"paragraph\" data-article-gutter=\"true\">Brown\u2019s Instagram video \u2014 which, at the time of writing, has 1.6 million likes, accumulated in less than 12 hours \u2014 has received an outpour of support from A-listers such as Sarah Jessica Parker, Sharon Stone, Matthew Modine and Winnie Harlow. Brown herself ended the post on a defiant note: \u201cI refuse to apologize for growing up,\u201d she said. \u201cLet\u2019s 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.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/main><\/section>\n<\/article>\n<\/section>\n<\/section>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Millie Bobby Brown at the 2025 Brit Awards in London.
