Matt Lucas issued a public apology to Millie Bobby Brown for a social media post comparing her new blonde hairstyle and pink outfit to his Little Britain character, Vicky Pollard. Lucas stated he didn't intend to upset Brown and was mortified by press coverage misinterpreting his post as a "slam." Separately, Brown addressed media criticism of her evolving appearance, calling out articles questioning her looks and accusing the media of bullying and tearing down young women. Brown, who rose to fame at a young age, emphasized her right to grow and change without facing negative judgment, stating she refuses to apologize for growing up.
