2024 was a busy year for Millie Bobby Brown. Her movie, Damsel came out on Netflix last March, she got married to Jake Bongiovi in mid-May, went viral for a bit she did with Sabrina Carpenter during the Short n? Sweet tour, and finished filming the fifth and final season of Stranger Things in December. Next up for MBB is The Electric State, another Netflix movie that?s directed by the Russo Brothers (not to be confused with ST?s the Duffer Brothers) and co-stars Chris Pratt. The Electric State is based on the 2018 graphic novel by Simon Stlenhag that takes place in a post-apocalyptic America. It drops on March 14.
Millie has the cover story for Vanity Fair?s March 2025 issue. Given her very eventful year, Millie had a lot to talk about. She talked about her marriage, the difficulties of making friends as a famous person, how the press treated her when she was a child star and more. You can read the full article here, but here are some highlights courtesy of JustJared.
On the effect negative and invasive press has had on her growing up: ?I started this really young, and I felt that the press specifically was very, very harsh on me. And so I just like to make sure that I?m advocating for myself?I think, just in general, there should be more laws with the media in terms of paparazzi in terms of exploitation.?
On fame: ?I never wanted to be famous?That was never my thing. I just love acting.?
On deleting social media from her phone at the age of 18: ?I was like, Oh my goodness, this is making me feel horrible about myself?I deleted it because I was becoming way too obsessed with the idea of becoming someone else.?
On her parents protecting her in the entertainment industry: ?I grew up with a lot of eyes on my parents, but I feel that those were the people that protected me the most.?
On struggling with friendships: ?I don?t have many friends, because of who I am?I didn?t go to school, so I don?t have the best social skills when it comes to people my own age and friendships. I struggle with that quite a bit. I missed out on a few things. But I?m working through them.?
On the message she sent to Sabrina Carpenter ahead of her concert to ?arrest? her during the show: ?Can you arrest me?? To which Sabrina responded: ?I would love to arrest you.?
On implementing her own adolescent confusion into the identity of her character, Eleven: ?Eleven?s identity was a huge thing that we were kind of fighting with. Is she going to dress as a girl? Or is she gonna dress in the shirts of her adoptive father, Hopper? Or is she gonna be what her friends are helping her to be? At that time in my life, I didn?t know what I wanted to look like, if I preferred more feminine looks, more masculine looks, more androgynous, more grunge. So I implemented that confusion.?
On crying while filming the final season of Stranger Things: ?I was on set, and I was like, ?Well, I have one more day left.? And I started crying. I don?t actually like to cry at work. I?m a really emotional person, but I try to stay super strong. It made me feel so uncomfortable. Jake was like, ?It?s good, you have to get it out!? and I just started welling up.?
On the trad wife trend and living on a farm in Georgia: ?I?m not doing it for the aesthetic?I?m doing it because I love it. There are maybe some trad wives out there doing it because it seems wholesome, but it is not. If you?re not picking up horse s?t or washing a cow with your bare hands, then that life is not made for you. At all.?
On her relationship with Jake Bongiovi: ?We talked about our political views, what kind of family we want to build, the kind of home we want to live in, the kind of relationship we?re looking for, the kind of careers we want. It?s such an important decision, and we wanted to make sure we were making the right one. I knew I was. It always felt right with him.?
On what she has learned so far in their marriage: ?Loving someone and being in love are two different things?I think I loved a lot of people I was with, like I loved my friends. But he is the first man I?ve ever loved and been in love with. If we?re not fully invested, then what?s the point? We have to be, and we always have been.?

I?m really impressed by Millie?s responses. The answer about the reality of being a ?trad wife? on a farm made me laugh. I don?t have TikTok but I once went down a rabbithole about the trad wife farm thing after seeing a leftie influencer post about it online. Anyway, I really love that she points out that there is a difference between loving someone and being in love. That is something a lot of women struggle to differentiate. It?s also great that she specifically mentioned that she and Jake talked about politics, kids, the type of relationship they?re each looking for, etc. I always assumed that was what everyone did but social media has taught me that its not. Let?s normalize this for the young women in Millie?s generation.
I was worried about her after Stranger Things took off and we heard how demanding her father was as her manager. She seems to have grown up to be relatively grounded, and that makes me happy.

It feels like there?s been an exponential uptick in people using the term ?President Musk? ever since that Oval Office press conference last week. Good, cause it?ll bug the sh-t out of the man Musk bought, Trump. While Musk and his merry band of Hitler Youths at DOGE have already steamrolled their way into accessing sensitive data in the Treasury Department ? and, as of this weekend, possibly the Social Security Administration ? and we have yet to see how that breach will manifest, it is never, never too late to hit Musk in the purse by boycotting his businesses. Sheryl Crow has done just that, revealing on Instagram Friday that she sold her Tesla and was donating the proceeds to NPR, because it was ?under threat by President Musk.? Everyday is a winding road, but if a change would do you good and all you wanna do is have some fun selling off your (least) favorite mistake, then do it, if it makes you happy. And yes, in Sheryl?s video post she does indeed soak up the sun.
?My parents always said? you are who you hang out with,? Crow wrote in the caption. ?There comes a time when you have to decide who you are willing to align with. So long Tesla.?
Tesla?s CEO Elon Musk is leading the Department of Government Efficiency, which is focused on reducing federal spending under President Donald Trump. The Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, has singled out agencies like the Department of Education and the Federal Aviation Administration in addition to targeting DEI initiatives.
Musk?s presence among Trump?s allies has garnered criticism from Democrats and galvanized rally-goers. Critics have filed several lawsuits opposing the Department of Government Efficiency?s efforts. Musk is simultaneously leading Tesla, which reported its fourth-quarter earnings in January with results falling below Wall Street?s estimates.
In her caption, Crow also said she was donating money to NPR.
?Money donated to @npr, which is under threat by President Musk, in hopes that the truth will continue to find its way to those willing to know the truth,? Crow?s caption read.
NPR has recently drawn political scrutiny from Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene and others.
Greene, the chairwoman of the House Oversigt Subcommittee on Delivering on Government Efficiency, has called the CEOs of NPR and PBS to testify in a March hearing. In her letter to the media agencies, Greene referenced NPR?s coverage of the Hunter Biden laptop story and PBS?s coverage of a gesture Musk made during an Inauguration Day event.
The Federal Communications Commission has also set its sights on NPR and PBS. Trump-backed FCC Chairman Brendan Carr ordered an investigation into the media agencies over concerns they could be ?violating federal law by airing commercials,? per a letter obtained by The New York Times.
Carr reposted Crow?s video to his X account on Saturday, along with some commentary.
?I know celebrities are hesitant to weigh in on hot button issues, so I appreciate Sheryl Crow making an argument here?not through words alone, but through her actions?that Congress should not force taxpayers to subsidize NPR. Bravo,? the post said.
[From Business Insider]
?PBS?s coverage of a gesture Musk made during an Inauguration Day event.? It was a Nazi salute, Marjorie, and he made it multiple times (on camera) that day, just in case you want to be more efficient with your wording at the hearings. But getting back to a better blonde: Sheryl Crow. She?s hitting all the right notes here (music pun intended). I love how she frames the whole thing with those words from her parents, and what she doesn?t say outright, but I still felt, is her wanting to set a similar example for her sons. And thank goodness, Sheryl is not alone in directing negative attention towards Tesla. Protests have been happening all over the country at the car company?s showrooms, and not only were the 2024 fourth quarter earnings below estimates, but it also marked Tesla?s first ever-reported annual sales decline. Listen, I?ll take every little form of win we can get! Big things have small beginnings.
Lastly, I?d just like to take a paws to acknowledge the late great Kabosu. Not that anyone needs reminding, but Kabosu was the fabulous Japanese Shiba Inu whose Mona Lisa-mysterious mug inspired the Doge meme. I am both deeply apologetic for what?s being carried out in her namesake, and thankful she doesn?t have to witness it.

Here are more photos from Sunday?s BAFTAs. The big winners included: Conclave for Best Film, Mikey Madison for Best Actress, Adrien Brody for Best Actor, Kieran Culkin for Supporting Actor (Culkin skipped because of a family emergency) and Zoe Saldana for Supporting Actress. There?s been such significant backlash to Emilia Perez over the past month, but Netflix is doing something right with how they?ve organized Saldana?s campaign. They managed to pull her out of the wreckage, and Saldana has now picked up the Golden Globe, BAFTA and Critics Choice awards. If she wins the SAG Award next weekend, that means this category is totally wrapped up. Zoe wore a Saint Laurent dress to the BAFTAs? eh. It?s not the worst, but it?s far from the best.
I?m still delusionally praying for Isabella Rossellini to pull off an upset in supporting actress! Isabella turned up at the BAFTAs too, and she was there to celebrate Conclave?s Best Film win. She wore a completely bonkers Dolce & Gabbana muumuu with Bulgari jewelry.
Selena Gomez wore Schiaparelli?lol, this isn?t the worst Schiaparelli I?ve seen, but I still don?t get why people are obsessed with this brand.
Pamela Anderson wore Jacquemus. Eh. It?s the styling this is giving ?Daytime Emmys? not BAFTAs.
Sebastian Stan and Annabelle Wallis walked the carpet together!! They?ve been together for like three years? She wore Vivienne Westwood. They?re an attractive couple and they mostly fly under the radar.
Fernanda Torres wore Dior she?s been wearing a lot of Chanel to other shows, so this was notable. This was, no joke, one of my favorite dresses of the BAFTAs. So simple, so flattering.
Colman Domingo wore Versace he?s incredible.

Demi Moore attended the BAFTAs on Sunday as a Best Actress nominee. She lost to Mikey Madison, in what was probably considered a surprise. Personally, I?ve thought that Mikey should be the frontrunner of the lead-actress race for months, but Demi is the one winning everything (everything except the BAFTA). Demi dressed like she thought she was going to win as well she wore this really striking Alexander McQueen gown which is so detailed and interesting.
Lupita Nyong?o wore Chanel to the BAFTAs this is one of the few times I?ve really loved Chanel on a red carpet. Who knew that Lupita + Chanel was such a great combo?
Anna Kentrick wore an archive Georges Chakra really sexy, and I adore the diamonds and emeralds. She really went all out.
Marisa Tomei in Sophie Couture. I saw some complaints about this and I was like WTF, she looks great. But on second look? the dress is ?off? somehow? I get it. The shoulders throw everything off and the large applique at the waist weighs down the dress (and makes it look saggy). But she?s lovely.
Bonus James McAvoy, looking like a snack.

Blake Lively & Ryan Reynolds attended the Saturday Night Live 50th anniversary show on Sunday night. This is their first red carpet together since all of the Justin Baldoni lawsuits. I think ?body language analysis? has been hijacked by tabloid idiots, but I did find their body language and red-carpet moves very interesting. They made a point of posing separately and together and in many photos, they look the same as they always do. But something has shifted, imo. Blake and Ryan even approved of a ?joke? on the show:

Timothee Chalamet grew out that gross little ratty mustache last year for a role in Josh Safdie?s Marty Supreme. The film wrapped a while ago, and yet the mustache is still here. I kind of wonder if it?s a superstition? Like, Timothee will not shave that thing until after the awards season? You would think he would be eager to get rid of it, because the mustache has brought a really trashy energy to Timothee?s worldwide promotional tour for A Complete Unknown.
Speaking of, Timothee was in Germany on Valentine?s Day. He premiered A Complete Unknown at the Berlin Film Festival. Timmy wore head-to-toe Chrome Hearts, with Cartier jewelry. Something nice: I enjoy the fact that Timothee is such a fashion guy, and I love that he wore Pink for V-Day. Something mean: he looks like a 13-year-old wannabe rapper who goes by White Boy Chalmy. He is OOZING with talent, but seeing his slight figure in a pale Pink tank killed whatever attraction I had for him. That being said, I still kind of think he might pull off an ?upset? at the Oscars and end up winning Best Actor.
Anyway, it looks like Timothee invited his girlfriend to Germany too, so they could spend V-Day together. Kylie Jenner was also in Paris with him last month, so she enjoys traveling with him and having some time with him in-between premieres and promotional work. Kylie didn?t walk the carpet, but she came into the theater and sat next to Timmy and everyone cheered her arrival.
