In a candid conversation with Stephen Colbert

When 13-Year Old Millie Bobby Brown Spilled the Beans on Why She Is Embarrassed by Her Dad

It’s hard to believe that it’s been 6 years since the Netflix Original Stranger
Things first premiered. After the recent wrap of season 4, what can one say
about the show that hasn’t been said before? The latest season exceeded all
expectations and was by far the best. With the 74th Primetime Emmy nominations
just announced, everyone expected Millie Bobby Brown and Sadie Sink to be
nominated.

However, that wasn’t the case, leaving the fans outraged. To mask their
disappointment, the internet started sharing an adorable old interview of Millie
Bobby Brown on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.
[https://www.youtube.com/c/ColbertLateShow] The nostalgic video doing the rounds
was after her first Emmy nomination back in 2017. The star, who had just turned
thirteen then, candidly discusses her nomination and shares some amusing tidbits
about her family.


WHY MILLIE BOBBY BROWN IS EMBARRASSED BY HER DAD

The nine-minute clip with the charming Millie Bobby Brown gets you chuckling
throughout. From moping over turning 13 to her 13th birthday party as well as
her desire to co-host the Emmys

the interview takes you through several hilarious anecdotes. Furthermore, Millie
also gives us a sneak peek into her family.



Being the third among four siblings, Brown shares that she is the only one in
the show business. While social media is full of jokes and memes

her household doesn’t even know much about Stranger Things
[https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/stranger-things/], let alone make jokes about it.
However, like any normal teenager, her parents also embarrass her, especially
her father. “You’ve got to love him for it, but he is very embarrassing,” says
Millie.

She reasons further, saying, “He thinks that photo bombing is cool.” At that
point, Stephen Colbert
[https://netflixjunkie.com/netflix-originals-13-year-old-millie-booby-brown-embarrassed-stephen-colbert-for-cracking-a-lame-joke-on-eleven/]
whips out an actual picture of Millie with a fan and Millie’s dad in the
background as evidence. The uproar of laughter from the studio audience
emphasizes how relatable this situation is. Brown narrated that her attempt to
discourage her father was futile. “And there he is, another fan and another
person, and even at family reunions, he’s there in the background,” she adds.



Emmy nominations come and go, but it’s heartwarming to know that no matter what,
the father-daughter relationship remains pure and precious. Even if you are
Millie Bobby Brown [http://netflixjunkie.com/tag/millie-bobby-brown]. And a
little embarrassment hurt no one, right? Tell us how your parents embarrass you
and if you haven’t yet, watch Stranger Things streaming on Netflix
