Stranger Things

She may be an incredible actress who can actually make Eggos look appealing, but it turns out Millie Bobby Brown of Stranger Things fame can also really sing.

In footage which has been uploaded to YouTube, the hero of the latest Netflix smash hit show channels her inner Ed and Amy, and the public are seriously impressed.

Before performing Thinking Out Loud by Ed Sheeran – who is currently being sued on the grounds that the song bears a striking similarity to a Marvin Gaye track – the young actress appears a tiny bit nervous, but then comes into her own in footage which has been viewed almost 100,000 times.
 

More recently, the 12-year-old actress gave it her all to Amy Winehouse's You Know I'm No Good, and while YouTubers cannot get enough, many couldn't help but turn attention towards Millie's role as Eleven in the sci-fi show.

Praising Millie's performance on Stranger Things, fans of the actress insist her star is only set to rise, with one writing: "They are going to put you on the big screen. just wait and see."

We're with them on that one.

For those of you who have yet to get stuck into the sci-fest fest that is Stranger Things, Barb was undoubtedly the unsung hero of the latest Netflix smash hit.

The long-suffering friend of the high-achieving Nancy, Barb embodied ALL of us during the most awkward phases of our teenage years.

Ginger, bespetacled, and with all the craic of someone's particularly uptight grandmother, Barb was everyone in secondary school attempting to fit in with the cool kids while doing right by her best friend.

And with the show's creators having been commended for their uncanny portrayal of 1980s America, it seems they really hit the nail on the head when it came to the ill-fated Barb.

Taking to Twitter to acknowledge the all-round appeal of the awkward teen, social media users have shared throwback photos of themselves looking like a stand-in for the flame-haired Barb.

And ladies, they're not wrong…

If you've been glued to Netflix original series, Stranger Things, you'll have been hard-pressed to ignore the burgeoning romance which appears to be blossoming between Mike – one of the show's main protagonists – and his new friend, Eleven.

And while the young actors – Finn Wolfhard who plays Mike is 13 and Millie Bobby Brown who plays Eleven is 12 – have tackled some incredibly harrowing storylines over the course of the show's arc, when it comes to kissing, there's no denying their young age.

Speaking to Vulture, Finn opened up about his first foray into scenes which contained a romantic element, and while he insists he was comfortable, Millie's reaction to their first shift was a little less enthusiastic.

"Because we got along so well and we were friends prior, we were more comfortable with it because we knew what was going to happen," he began before revealing it didn't end quite as well as it began,

"Once it happened, it was just, whatever. Millie's reaction was the funniest thing I've ever seen on set," he admitted. "We didn't kiss until the first take, and we did it. It was a really good take."

"They yelled cut. Millie got up and just looked, like, disappointed," Finn confessed. "Then she yelled out, “Kissing sucks. That sucked.”

And while many young lads would balk at Millie's reaction to their mad skillz, Finn thought it was hilarious, laughing: "It was the funniest reaction I've ever seen on a person, because I was her first kiss. I don't know, it was really, really funny."

Fair play to him – we don't know if we'd have handled that reaction so well.
