With her last insta post, then walking out in a full cheetah print Jackie Kennedy outfit just yestarday, you can tell shes confused about how to feel pretty and respected, and that fucking sucks.
I wouldn’t feel bad for her because of the full cheetah print outfit. I don’t think wearing fun, fashionable clothing is a cry for help.
BUT she is clearly getting way more criticism than she deserves regarding her looks. I find it odd, because a lot of celebrities that looked “old for their age” ended up aging ridiculously well later on. People need to find better things to worry about…
Isn’t she like 20 or 19 or something? Aren’t 20 somethings supposed to dress weird and experiment and just generally be a little foolish? It’s a shame we can’t allow that for some people.
That’s so fucking awesome. I used to wear huge JNCO pants and gnarly band shirts and spike my hair in all sorts of colors. I kind of wish there were more photos, it was cool as hell.
Those pants sound awesome, I'dhave loved them when i was younger. I had a red cardigan with chickens on it, and the buttons were eggs. I called it my egg-cellent cardigan. It was so warm.
I'm very glad that I grew up in an age of film cameras, where photos were expensive, & needed developing!
I don’t necessarily think it’s the fashion she’s wearing as a whole. It’s more that she is very rich, and can afford to have her hair done by the best, but it is so lifeless and the colour does not suit her.
Similarly, the colouring of some of her outfits does not compliment her skin tone at all.
Yeah I don’t really follow the woman, but she keeps popping up here and there. She is very pretty. I feel like she is trying to hard. But a quick google search says she’s 21 I’m sure there’s a lot a pressure, it’s wild watching celebrities grow up, they are in a completely different life style then most of us.
She's 21, she's been perved over by a horrific media and gross men since she was 11, and she got married last year...! I feel like she had to mature super fast, feeling like prey, and then married really quickly because a man was nice to her. I have everything crossed for her that he's a good one, and also that the defence of "being someone's wife" does actually work. (Ie "we the media can't perv over her as much now, because "she's someone's wife"" pardon me while I vomit that this is necessary)
I graduated 2020, 27 now, and this post made me realize how crazy the idolization of 18-22 year old girls gets. I think the craziest part is when your in that age bracket and have some type of sell for your sexuality, you have 11 year olds to 60 year olds thinking your hot, thats fucking insane to think about, let alone manage
I also graduated ‘20 and am 26. Agree, it’s so weird reflecting on that as I’ve gotten older…especially since it’s a pretty awkward age still? I mean, compared it where I’m at now IMO. So it’s weird to think that that’s what society considers to be “peak” attractiveness
Same, only 24 working in a restaurant, but it infuriates me seeing 40 - 50 year old restaurant managers flirting with the 18-year-old servers who are still in high school. Disgusts, more accurately.
They perved WAY too much over her and her co-star in stranger things. I remember seeing some female talk show hosts saying the kind of things that would get a guy cancelled. The actress from harry potter got it pretty bad too, if I remember right.
At some point can we all agree that sexualizing child actors is wrong, write a memo to that affect and send it to the media. Then just burn anyone who tries.
Clearly a lot of people don’t understand the silly fun zoomers are having with camp fashion and characters like The Nanny. It’s very intentional. She’s not confused.
Growing up is hard enough, can’t imagine doing it in front of the public eye. I fucking got so red in the safe from age 12-19 anytime I felt slightly embarrassed.. I hated it. Glad I grew out of that. Even forgot about it til now cause I blocked out those memories lol
I have nothing against her but she’s 21 and has had a lot of work done. While that’s ok and she’s obviously free to do as she pleases I feel it’s a bad example to other girls who look up to her and might think it’s normal or necessary to get these cosmetic procedures done especially when so many female celebrities don’t like to be open about it.
I feel sorry for her, cause it must be horrible to be criticised that harshly at 21. But at the same time, the entire industry is built on vanity and narcissism. You can’t pick and choose how and when the industry focuses on your beauty, health, size, etc, if you accept it when you like what they say. This sort of rhetoric is built in to the industry. You accept their attention when you’re on the cover of a magazine in a skimpy bathing suit. You accept it when you get dressed up and they say you look so hot and skinny, but you reject it when they say you look old.
She doesn’t have to be but she is. She’s in one of the most famous shows in the world and she’s part of a larger problem of so many young celebrities getting cosmetic surgeries done.
I’m not saying she has to live her life perfectly but she’s looked up to by a bunch of little girls and young women and what she’s doing is a bad example for them. Hollywood is full of unrealistic beauty standards and now a young pretty girl is barely 21 and getting a bunch of cosmetic surgery. Do you not realize how damaging that can be to those little girls and young women who look up to her and idolize her?
And so what's your plan? She's already done what she's done. And it's impossible to try and control other people. If you Insist, you should be modelling to the youth respect and care for others who make different decisions than you would or have.
If you MUST attack this narrative that us women are subjected to, criticize the perpetrators not the victims.
I do criticize Hollywood and its beauty standards but she’s not some victim she’s literally part of Hollywood. Try telling a child they should love their body and be comfortable in their skin when every girl on tik tok and movies has tons of cosmetic procedures done then deny them and say they look like that naturally. I’m not saying Millie should come out and apologize for her decisions or that she’s wrong for them but her decisions go beyond just her that’s what happens when you’re famous. You’re getting mad at me even tho Millie is one of the perpetrators of this toxic culture women are subjected to.
Oops, you showed your hand. You don't care at all about her "being a role model" or about her "natural" look. I don't follow her. after a quick search, I can't find any evidence of her denying she had plastic surgery. & no, her saying she's older now doesn't count as denying it.
Think about it: you want her to be a good role model so badly, but you can't even do the bare minimum by empathizing with her. you care so much about little girls ' self-esteem, that you're going to... criticize a woman who felt the same way as those little girls.
Be honest. It's more respectful than hiding behind this "role model" BS. It was old when they did it to Britney.
TLDR saying there's a problem affecting little girls then using that to further pile on to someone chewed out through the system, and declaring them not a victim is perpetuating the issue not solving it.
