Millie Bobby Brown, 21, made a bold statement on the red carpet at the Stranger Things Season 5 premiere in London, November 13. The actress, known for her role as Eleven, was posing in a stunning boudoir-inspired dress from Ashi Studio's fall 2025 couture collection when a photographer shouted, 'Smile!' in an attempt to capture a cheerful moment. Brown's response was swift and unwavering. 'Smile? You Smile!' she retorted, pointing to the group of photographers before walking away from the carpet. The tense exchange was caught on camera and quickly went viral on social media, sparking a mixed reaction from fans. While some fans defended the photographer's right to ask for a smile, many others praised Brown for standing up for herself and calling out the comment. 'It's about time celebrities started talking back,' one fan posted on social media. The exchange comes as Brown and her husband, Jake Bongiovi, 23, are in the midst of a press tour for the final season of Stranger Things. The couple, who adopted a baby girl in August, has been joined by Brown's costars on the red carpet, including the Los Angeles premiere on November 6. Stranger Things Season 5, Volume 1 premieres on November 26 at 8 p.m. ET on Netflix, followed by Volume 2 on December 25, and the finale on December 31.
