Actress known for her role as Eleven in Stranger Things
“For some reason, people can't seem to grow up with me. Instead, they act like I'm supposed to stay frozen in time... And because I don't, I'm now a target.”

“I respect journalism. I love reading articles on my favourite people and hearing what they're up to. I understand that there's paparazzi, even though it's invasive, even though it feels like shit to me - I know that's your job... But don't, in your headline, slam me at the get-go. It is so wrong, and it is bullying, especially to young girls who are new to this industry and are already questioning everything about it.”
