The couple turned heads as they stepped onto the red carpet at The Egyptian Theatre in Los Angeles, where the “Stranger Things” star reflected on what it has been like being married for a year.

Jake Bongiovi and Millie Bobby Brown turned heads at “The Electric State” premiere on Monday, February 24. However, it wasn’t just their red carpet appearance that had people talking, Brown’s hairstyle and transformation became the center of fans’ discussion.

At the event, Brown exuded elegance in a shimmering silver and gold floor-length gown. The dress was complemented by an over-the-shoulder short-sleeve cover adorned with matching embellishments.

The 21-year-old completed her look with diamond earrings that perfectly paired with her sparkling ring. Her blonde hair was styled in a chic bun, with bangs framing her face. Meanwhile, Bongiovi looked sharp in a classic black and white tuxedo, finished with a sleek black bow tie.

Fans were quick to comment on the duo’s appearance, with a focus on Millie Bobby Brown. A fan who was taken aback by the hair transformation, exclaimed, “She’s 21!!! That hairdo aged so badly.”

Another user couldn’t help but compare her to a Hollywood legend, “I’m sorry if this is mean but she looks a little younger than Jane Fonda rn [sic] 😂😂😂.”

The age comparisons didn’t stop there, as someone else quipped, “Omgg she looks like his mom 🤦🏻‍♀️.” Another user also sarcastically chimed in, “Whoa! 😳 🤯 she looks 40 & fabulous!.” One person pointed out, “That hair makes her look like she’s 40!”

More fans commented on her hairstyle, “That hair color doesn’t look good on her. It makes her look old. She’s in her 20s.” Another astonished fan wondered, “When did she become a middle-aged American woman?? lol.”

Meanwhile, another fan reflected on their own experience, “She makes my turning 21 look like I was 10. 😂 I didn’t recognize her, but she does look beautiful regardless.”

Not all the reactions were critical, though—one admirer praised her transformation, “She has grown into a beautiful woman🌷.” And amid the chatter, one fan celebrated the couple’s undeniable chemistry, “That’s got to be one of the most beautiful couples ever 🔥🔥.”

Brown, who got married to Jake Bongiovi in 2024, switched to blonde for her role in “The Electric State,” a sci-fi adventure film. When asked on the red carpet whether the character influenced her decision or vice versa, she revealed that she had actually gone even blonder than in the film. “I’ve never done this before, but I figured why not,” she shared.

The actress and her husband have been appearing at star-studded events as a pair ever since they tied the knot. Brown was also asked about her experience of being married for a year.

She reflected, “I think it’s just taught me how grateful you should be to enjoy connection and love and friendship. I’ve had, you know, such a joy being able to be married for a year already, it felt like 2 seconds.”

She added that time had flown by and emphasized the importance of cherishing special moments with loved ones. Brown has been enjoying the awards season with her husband by her side.

Netizens have been keen on her appearances on the red carpet during these star-studded events. They recently weighed in with their opinions on Brown’s outlook at the 31st Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards in Los Angeles, California. Most people marveled at how much older she appeared than her actual age.

For the prestigious affair, the actress chose an elegant, floor-length satin gown in a delicate shade of peach that perfectly complemented her radiant complexion.

The dress featured a graceful cowl neckline, thin spaghetti straps, and a sleek silhouette that accentuated her figure beautifully. It cascaded into a subtle yet sophisticated train.

Brown opted for understated glamour with her accessories, wearing sparkling drop earrings and statement rings that added a refined shimmer without overshadowing her gown. The actress’ blonde hair was styled into a chic updo, with soft, face-framing pieces enhancing her poised appearance.

Her makeup matched the elegance of her attire, highlighted by rosy blush, glossy nude lips, and a touch of shimmering eye shadow that illuminated her features.

Upon seeing online pictures of the “Damsel” star, who attended the awards event with Bongiovi, many did not hold back with their opinions.

“Whoa, she looks like she’s 50 🤯,” marveled an Instagrammer, while another echoed a similar sentiment, “She looks 40. Shell [sic] age like Tori Spelling if she keeps messing up her face that young.”

A netizen chimed in with, “Agreed with others, bad hair and makeup. She looks 45-50 lol.” Even more age comments ensued, with yet another observer opining, “She looks way older than what she is now.” “She looks gorgeous! But she definitely doesn’t look 21,” added someone else.

A fellow spectator expressed disbelief, “I can’t believe she JUST turned 21😮,” while another person asserted, “I love her but why does she look like she’s in her 40s?!” “WHY does she dress like she’s 55,” wondered an Instagrammer, directly referencing what Brown chose to wear.
