What is going on the Millie Bobbie Brown catching hate for looking older then she actual is? Kind of seems like what a pervert would say?

Its the same bullshit that's been going on for ages.

Young actress grows up, people think they have an obligation to look and act how their idea of the now adult actress is rather than them being themselves.

It happens to pretty much all young performers, but girls get it worse because sexism and patriarchy amplify it.

She's damn near 21 now. She's married and moving into an adult life and some people are idiots. They expect her to either stay that little girl, or at least not act adult in public.

I was so confused by this post, and it turns out I was conflating some celebrity I'd never heard of with a Julie Brown (who was famous maybe 30 years ago).

Then I googled Millie Bobby Brown and am confused again: She looks like a typical early 20something, which she is?
- Yup, she is just that.
  
  She's the girl from Stranger Things.
  
  But people don't think about her as the girl that was on stranger things, they keep her in that mental slot as though she wouldn't age.

There was <blerg> a countdown time for 🤢 when she turned 18 🤮

Emma Watson reported that paparazzi camped out in front of her house the day she turned 18 in order to catch a legal upskirt photo.
- She turned 18 a couple years after upskirt photos became illegal in Brittain. Not so sure about the timing of similar laws in the US, I just remember the press about it during the aughts.
  
  To be fair, I thought she was a few years older than she is, so I had to look up the the timing of it all, but I also thought "legal upskirt photos" were a more ancient matter as well.
I recall the same shit happened with the olson twins
Every once in a while I hear about one of these creepfests but I never seem to come across them in the wild.

I guess I'm doing something right. 😑

Can you give context of where you're seeing this?

Its hard for me to not see lemmy getting worse since it became popular last year. If this kind of vitriol about celebrities is reaching lemmy. I don't know if I want to be part of it.

This post was the first I've seen about it on Lemmy, or anywhere. Who are you people who haven't realized the cancer that is /all, whether here or that other place?
- I'm not sure how to respond to that. Idk if being a jerk to me is getting you point across though

Yes.
