Millie Bobby Brown is probably the biggest name in the industry right now. Her breakout role in Stranger Things catapulted the young girl to superstardom overnight. Fans were immediately rooted for the young Eleven and her sad origin story. Some of them went a little overboard and even got her tattoos! 

But the actress is very different from her on-screen character. She says way more than just “friends don’t lie”! Back in 2017 when she guested on the Ellen DeGeneres show, she showed off her playful charm and confronted Ellen for not replying to her letters!

Millie Bobby Brown is a self-confessed fan of Ellen DeGeneres. The starlet wanted to guest on the show ever since she was little. She had written Ellen countless letters, but the talk didn’t get around to responding to those letters. When Ellen tried to tell her that she owes her scoops from the Stranger Things set for the letters she wrote to her, Millie promptly shut her down. She reminded her that she never got any answers and Ellen was left flustered.

In the old interview, a young Millie also talked about playing such a challenging role so young. She hilariously admits that she spoke very less but she at least had 42 lines! The actress reasoned that she wanted to try something else. She consciously picked the role because it demanded that she speak literally with her eyes and not convey emotions through words. Well, it paid off well for her. She shined in the role of Eleven!
