Millie Bobby Brown Reveals Her First Kiss Was With 'Stranger Things' Co-Star!
Millie Bobby Brown takes the cover of Interview magazine’s November 2016 issue – her first magazine cover story!
The 12-year-old star of Stranger Things was interviewed for the feature by her pal Maddie Ziegler. Here’s what she shared…
On how they became pals: “I got tickets to go see So You Think You Can Dance because I’ve been watching you since I was about 7, and I was crazy when I knew you were actually going to be on the show. And the whole show I was looking at you like, ‘Please let her look at me.’ And then they told me that I could go backstage and meet you, and I’m literally, like, taking deep breaths, like, “Oh my goodness,” and then you were a normal human being. You were Maddie Ziegler. Then you followed me on Twitter�and I had a meltdown� and the rest is history, really.”
On being asked by Maddie about her kiss with Finn Wolfhard on Stranger Things: “You’re an evil, evil person. You know that? Are you aware of that, Maddie? Yeah, I did have to kiss Finn. At the end of the day, it’s only acting, and it’s something you have to do, and I would do any- thing for the show. I cut my hair, I kissed Finn. It was definitely strange. It was, like, my first kiss, so it was kind of weird. But then, like, when I’d done it, I thought, ;Wow. It makes sense for the storyline.’”
On playing Eleven: ” It was different from other roles because in those I had to speak a lot. I had, like, paragraphs. I had to play a man in one of my shows, and kill my mum in one of my shows, so it’s very weird the things I bump into. And in this show, I realized I didn’t have to speak with my mouth, I had to speak with my face. Instead of actually saying I’m angry, I’m sad, I’m confused, I had to do it with my face, and that was challenging. But I really enjoy playing a challenging role. I love playing Eleven.?”
