Millie Bobby Brown's only 13 years old, but she's already living the best life. We all know her as telekinetic badass Eleven on Stranger Things, and now she's become pretty popular in Hollywood. At the Golden Globe Awards, she shared a photo with Drake (whom she dubbed "her security") and she got a text message from Ariana Grande complimenting her gown. (When I was 13, my friends were slightly less cool than Drake and Ariana Grande. Just slightly.) But now the demigorgon slayer has a celebrity BFF you might not expect: Kim Kardashian. It all started with an appearance on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. Millie admitted that she was a huge fan of Keeping Up With The Kardashians, and couldn't stop watching it while filming her show. Kim, Khloe and "Mom-ager" Kris Jenner quickly responded on Twitter, saying that the love was mutual. Just like that, a friendship blossomed.

"BEST DAY EVER!" she declared. "Life complete." (Who knew kids were such big fans of the Kardashians' reality show?)

Recently Kim announced three new "KIMOJI" Heart Fragrances: "BAE," "BFF" and "Ride or Die." On Snapchat, she said she would send sample bottles of perfume to all her lovers and haters in celebration of Valentine's Day. This includes Millie Bobby Brown - and don't worry, she wasn't on the "Haters" list with Taylor Swift, Blac Chyna and Wendy Williams. [[twitterwidget||https://twitter.com/milliebbrown/status/960896224114167809]] [[twitterwidget||https://twitter.com/KimKardashian/status/960912160258797574]] On Twitter, Millie shared a photo of her gift: all three fragrances of perfume, some beauty products and a handwritten note. The letter reads, "Millie - I wanted to send you my new perfume and makeup. I hope you like it! XO - Kim." Millie posted the adorable response: "Thank you @KimKardashian for my amazing gifts! You’re the best. My Valentines Day came early. #freakingout." And Kim replied to that with a series of heart emojis. You Kim Kardashian haters better watch out - now Eleven's in her korner. The Twitter-verse found the interaction heartwarming. Fans said they were jealous of Kim and Millie's budding friendship, and wished they were that cool at 13 years old. [[twitterwidget||https://twitter.com/proudmillieb/status/960896482093228032]] [[twitterwidget||https://twitter.com/KierstenPollard/status/960931634412474368]] [[twitterwidget||https://twitter.com/KylosBraids/status/960897943258583040]] It's nice the responses have been so positive. Recently it was reported that Millie landed a boyfriend: 15-year-old YouTube singing sensation Jacob Sartorius. Her fans freaked out on social media, expressing concern that Jacob isn't good enough for her. Maybe those same overprotective fans don't approve of Kim - after all, Kim Kardashian has a pretty long list of "haters." But hey, let Millie do Millie. She's 13, and living the dream. Maybe this friendship will lead to a cameo on Stranger Things. On their next trip to the Upside Down, Eleven, Mike the gang might discover creatures more terrifying the demigorgon and the mind flayer: The Kardashians.

It seemed like Millie Bobby Brown and Drake had a cute relationship. She's a fan of his music. He's a fan of Stranger Things. She slays Demigorgons. He slayed Meek Mill. They have so much in common! At a Golden Globes after party Millie took a photo with Drake, and wrote the humorous caption, "blessed to have my security be my +1." The internet loved their blossoming friendship.

However, after a red carpet interview at the Emmy's, the internet is a little concerned. While speaking with Access Hollywood, the 14-year-old actress opened up about her friendship with the 31-year-old rapper. "I love him. I met him in Australia and he's honestly so fantastic, a great friend, and a great role model," said Millie. "We just texted each other the other day and he was like 'I miss you so much,' and I was like 'I miss you more.'"

Millie went on to say she plans to see Drake in November, when his Aubrey and the Three Migos tour stops by Atlanta. When one of the hosts asked what kind of advice Drake gives her, she replied, "About boys, he helps me." When pressed to elaborate, she laughed, saying, "That stays in the text messages!"
[[twitterwidget||https://twitter.com/PopCrave/status/1042139015640694785]]

The hosts and Millie treat the messages like an innocent exchange, a harmless conversation between big bro and lil' sis. Or mentor and mentee; remember, Drake started off as a teenage actor on Degrassi: Teh Next Generation. However, some Twitter users thought their relationship was "straight up creepy." Isn't it kind of weird for a 31-year-old guy to text boy advice and "I miss you so much" to a 14-year-old girl?

Recently Drake was spotted cozying up with 18-year-old model Bella Harris, who is the daughter of singer and songwriter Jimmy Jam. The two took a photo together, apparently backstage at Madison Square Garden, where Drake was performing. "No place I’d rather be," she wrote in the caption.

Page Six and E! reported that the two had dinner together in Washington, D.C., fueling rumors that they were dating. In a caption to a selfie on Instagram, Bella denied the reports. The nature of their relationship is unclear, but they've known each other for a few years, dating back to a photo they took together than Bella was 16.

With rumors swirling about Drake's relationship with Bella, some people expressed concern that he was "grooming" Millie.

Also, some people questioned the quality of Drake's dating advice, considering what he raps about in his music.

Well, maybe the Twitter detectives are onto something, or maybe this is all much ado about nothing. Recently we learned that Drake sent thirsty text messages to supermodel Heidi Klum, following an episode of Ellen. (Heidi and Ellen played a game of Would You Rather, and Heidi said she only had eyes for the Toronto rapper.) Nothing happened, because Heidi is currently seeing someone. But if something does happen, Heidi's 45, so the internet has nothing to worry about.

Millie Bobby Brown has revealed that some of her biggest fans are having trouble "accepting" that she's all grown up.

The actor first gained international fame back in 2016 after her role as the mysterious and powerful Eleven in the Netflix series Stranger Things. Brown was just 12 years old when she first appeared on the critically acclaimed sci-fi show, meaning we have watched the young star grow up into a multi-talented teenager.

It has always been a case that Brown is talented beyond her years, and Time magazine even named her one of its 100 Most Influential People of 2018 - making her the youngest person ever to be named on the list.

But just like a parent watching their child pack up and leave for college, the now-17-year-old has admitted that some of her fans find it difficult to accept that she's all grown up.

Speaking to MTV, the Enola Holmes star revealed that people have becoming "invested" in her journey as an actress after getting to know her from such a young age.

"Being a young girl, people watch you grow up, right? And they've almost become invested in your growth and your journey, but they aren't ready to accept the fact that you're growing up," she said.

Brown then spoke about the backlash she has received due to some of her outfit choices for red-carpet events.

Perhaps most-famously at last year's Screen Actors Guild Awards in Los Angeles, a then-15-year-old Brown received a lot of comments for her outfit choice - pictured below:

In response, one Twitter user wrote: "Millie Bobby Brown is 15 years old. Everyone who is responsible for this look needs to get fired".

Another added: "She looks like she could be Natalie Portman or Celine Dion. I don't see a 15 year old here. She looks like she's an adult cast member crashing the teen photo."

Speaking to MTV, Brown - who turned 17 in February - said:  "[The fans are] not accepting it."

Laughing, she then added: "I've completely accepted it. You know, I'm ready.

"And it's kind of like, I have 50 million people like my parents and they're like, 'Noo!' And my parents are like, 'Yay! Thank God, you're 17!'"

Brown then added that she wants to "evolve", and doesn't want the industry to hold her back from certain roles just because of her age.

Is there nothing Millie Bobby Brown can't do?

This week, the internet was up in arms about the friendship between 14-year-old actress Millie Bobby Brown and 31-year-old rapper Drake, after it was revealed that they often exchanged text messages.

Was it a harmless big-bro, little-sis thing? Or did the relationship between them have darker implications? The internet was pretty sure it was the latter, with many people taking to social media to express their concern.

[[instagramwidget||https://www.instagram.com/p/BbWSh4An-Bl/?utm_source=ig_embed]]

"What the f**k is Drake doing talking to/texting Millie Bobby Brown, a FOURTEEN YEAR OLD GIRL, about boys or anything at all? Like that is straight up creepy," wrote Twitter user @stitchmancery. She was joined by @stopbeingfamous who put "Millie Bobby Brown is innocent and probably has crush, but Drake has no business texting her 'I miss you so much'", as well as hundreds of other people online.

However, in the wake of the scandal, Millie has taken to social media herself to defend her friendship and slam those who have criticised her and Drake's close relationship.

In an Instagram Story, the Stranger Things actress wrote: "U guys are weird… for real. I’m lucky to have people in the business extend their time to help me further my career and offer their wisdom and guidance. I’m very blessed to have amazing people in my life. U don’t get to choose that for me. It’s nice to have people who understand what I do. Now get back to talking about real problems in this world other than my friendships… jeez. (sic)"

She finished her story by writing: "to all the supporters: i love you guys. thank you for supporting me. Many thanks to u guys. Sending my love to wherever u are in the world (sic)".

The pair first met in Australia last year and the In My Feelings star has apparently been helping Millie through her boy troubles since she split from her boyfriend Jacob Sartorius in July, as well offering up advice on her career.

In a red carpet interview with Access at the Emmy's, the 14-year-old actress opened up about her friendship with the 31-year-old rapper, stating: "I love him. I met him in Australia and he's honestly so fantastic, a great friend, and a great role model. We just texted each other the other day and he was like 'I miss you so much,' and I was like 'I miss you more.'"

In the same interview, the 14-year-old went on to say she plans to see Drake in November, when his Aubrey and the Three Migos tour comes to Atlanta. When one of the hosts asked what kind of advice Drake gives her, she replied, "About boys, he helps me." When pressed on the issue, she laughed the interrogation off, telling the presenter, "That stays in the text messages!"

So, will Millie's angry Instagram post shut down her haters? Watch this space.

At just 16 years old, British actress Millie Bobby Brown already has the entire world at her feet.

Not only does her role as Eleven in the sci-fi drama Stranger Things make her the star of one of the most popular shows on the planet, but the headstrong teen also boasts a social media following bigger than some country's populations.

On Instagram, Brown has already amassed more than 33.4 million followers! (When I was 16, I had only just worked up the confidence to go to the dentist by myself.)

And the young Godzilla star certainly knows how to keep her loyal fanbase entertained.

Just check out this video Brown shared of her singing on vacation - is there nothing she can't do?!

[[jwplayerwidget||https://content.jwplatform.com/videos/f9jMlPNg-sKUnNGKf.mp4||f9jMlPNg]]

Now, Brown has stunned her fans by debuting a new hairstyle, featuring long blonde hair extensions. The new look is certainly a far cry from the shaved head or brunette bangs we're used to seeing from the teenage star.

Sharing the snap on Instagram, Millie captioned the post: "matching [with] my chicken nugget today (swipe for a surprise)".

For those unaware, her "chicken nugget" is her adorable dog, Winnie. However, despite the cute pooch appearing the actually smile for the camera, fans were more taken aback by Brown's new blonde locks.

Check out Millie's striking new look below:

And, unsurprisingly, her followers loved it! As of this writing, the post has already amassed over 4.7 million likes and the positive comments came flooding in:

And don't worry, it shouldn't be too long before Millie is back on our screens as Eleven.

Speaking to Elle about the upcoming season four of Stranger Things, Brown opened up about her hopes for her character:

"I hope [Eleven] finds who she is, without a boy, a male influence in her life. There's Mike and Papa and Hopper and all the boys really. Even without Max⁠, she needs to find herself by herself.

Everyone needs that moment in life to sit there and think, 'Who am I as a person, who am I without everyone around me? How can I really love myself?' I don't know if she knows how to do that yet.

"So I would like an arc for Eleven to learn how to love herself and learn who she is, which is hard in the circumstances she's in. I think that she needs a little self-journey."

I cannot wait!
