Millie Bobby Brown is one of the world’s biggest teenage stars thanks to her role in Netflix hit “Stranger Things”, but a decade ago she was a 7-year-old with a big voice and a big love of Adele.
In celebration of where she finds herself now, the 16-year-old star shared a throwback video on Instagram of herself belting out Adele’s “Someone Like You” into a cute pink microphone.
“At the beginning of this decade I was 6 years old. going to school. making my class listen to me sing 24/7. probably not even thinking about where I’d be at the end of the decade. this video was taken in 2011 when I was 7 and utterly obsessed with @adele and still utterly obsessed. no change. this decade has been life changing, like seriously,” she wrote in the caption.

“I found my passion in 2013 when I knew I loved being on camera. in 2014 -2015 I was begging casting agents to believe in me,” she continued. “In late 2015 Carmen Cuba, the duffer bros, shawn levy, and dan cohen but most of all @netflix believed in me. From there I’ve been all over the world meeting all of you. Met the most genuine people. grown up and learned many things. I’m turning 16 soon and I can confidently say I’m living my dreams out. this is what I want for every young person right now. thank you to everyone for all of your support. love you forever.”
Brown’s musical dreams have taken her a long way from her days singing into a toy microphone. Last year, not only did she appear in Maroon 5’s video for “Girls Like You”, she also joined the band live onstage in Nashville to rap Cardi B’s part in the song. Watch:
