Looking back at the time when Millie Bobby Brown deactivated her Twitter account after facing the worst of cyberbullying.

Remember When the Gen-Z Sensation Millie Bobby Brown Left Twitter After Becoming the Target of Cruel Cyberbullying?

Millie Bobby Brown [http://netflixjunkie.com/tag/millie-bobby-brown] might be
one of the most famous young celebrities in Hollywood. But the actress has
clearly faced several obstacles on the way to fame and success. Right from the
beginning of her career, she became a victim of online harassment and bullying.
The Stranger Things star constantly received hateful messages and disturbing
sexualized messages from internet users. It is scary to see that the incessant
trolling scared her so much once that the teen star deleted her Twitter account,
being pushed to the very edge of cyberbullying. Can you imagine what she might
have gone through when she decided to leave social media?

About five years ago, the then 14-year-old superstar had to shut off her Twitter
account after being crushed by cyberbullying. According to CNN Entertainment
[https://edition.cnn.com/2018/06/14/entertainment/millie-bobby-brown-twitter/index.html],
the Godzilla star was extensively targeted by brutal hashtags and memes. The
hashtag #TakeDownMillieBobbyBrown circulated over the internet in November 2017
after one user allegedly claimed that the actress disrespected a fan.



The tweet said that Brown snatched the hijab of a female fan who asked her for
some pictures. Although there was no proof found that the incident actually took
place and tweet was later deleted. Many users stretched this topic for long,
writing nasty messages and outrageous captions to her photos to make her look
homophobic.

It is possible that this meme might have started ironically among fans. But it
did leave a horrible mark on the British star and she had to deactivate her
account.


MILLIE BOBBY BROWN DOES NOT FEAR INTERNET MOBS ANYMORE 

The global superstar who once feared the virtual world and stopped using her
social handles like Twitter and TikTok does not fear bullies anymore. The moment
Millie Bobby Brown turned 18, she took the charge of her life into her hands. As
we saw, she filled her Instagram with so many bold and mesmerizing photos

You probably remember how the Enola Holmes 2 star wished her fans a Merry
Christmas, becoming the hottest Santa in a red bikini from her tropical
vacation.
