Millie Bobby Brown is not here for people who think her friendship with Drake is weird, and she just hit up Instagram Stories to call everyone out. But first, a lil' background.

The Stranger Things actress was asked about Drake on the Emmys red carpet, where she described him as "a great friend and a great role model" and said "We just texted each other the other day, and he was like, 'I miss you so much,' and I was like, 'I miss you more.'"

She also said that Drake gives her advice "About boys," saying "He helps me. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He’s great. He’s wonderful. I love him."

As you might expect, some people found this odd given the age difference, as Drake is 31 and Millie is 14.

Millie, however, isn't in the mood for people's judgement:

"Why u gotta make a lovey friendship ur headline? U guys are weird… for real," she wrote. "I'm lucky to have people in the business extend their time to help me further my career and offer their wisdom and guidance. I'm very blessed to have amazing people in my life. U don't get to choose that for me. It's nice to have people who understand what I do. Now get back to talking about real problems in this world other than my friendships… jeez."
