As we celebrate the happiness of the Stranger Things star, let’s delve into the intriguing and somewhat controversial friendship she shares with Drake.Millie Bobby Brown first crossed paths with the God’s Plan rapper, Drake, in 2017 when she was just 13 and he was 31. He invited her to his concert in Brisbane, and she made the trip to Australia to see him perform. After the show, they hung out together, sharing snippets of their time on social media. At the 2018 SAG Awards, Millie revealed that Drake had personally invited her, and it seemed they were both equally starstruck by each other’s presence.
In a 2018 interview with Teen Vogue, the Damsel star shared that she met Drake in his dressing room, accompanied by her family. Both were starstruck, with Drake experiencing a fanboy moment while she enjoyed her fangirl encounter. It was a memorable experience for the young actress.
Their connection didn’t stop in Brisbane. The 20-year-old actress later met up with Drake at his Sydney show, where they continued to bond. Brown revealed that they also enjoyed dinners together after his concert. She even posted a photo on social media, giving credit to Drake for the shot.
While friendships are usually harmless, many were intrigued by the close bond between Drake and Millie Bobby Brown, especially given their 17-year age gap. Most of the scrutiny fell on Drake, but Brown firmly defended their relationship. In an Instagram story, she called out the media for sensationalizing their friendship, saying, “Why u gotta make a lovely friendship ur headline? U guys are weird…” Grateful for the support from people offering her wisdom, Brown reminded everyone that she chooses her friendships and urged them to focus on real-world issues instead.

In response, Drake clarified he’s never been involved with anyone underage, sparking further curiosity about his controversial friendship with Brown, who is 17 years younger.
Drake’s reference to Millie Bobby Brown in his October 2023 track “Another Late Night” didn’t come as a shock to many fans. In the song, from his album For All The Dogs, the rapper addressed the criticism surrounding his friendship with Brown, dismissing the remarks with the lines, “Weirdos in my comments talking about some Millie Bobby / Bring them jokes up to the gang, we get to really flocking.”
