The tweet that started the craze reads: “I saw Millie Bobby Brown in the airport and asked for a pic and she said “only if you remove the hijab” and I said “it’s my faith” and she aggressively pulled it off my head and stamped it on it.” The American actress – best known for her Emmy-nominated role on Netflix’s Stranger Things – quit the social media platform in reaction to hundreds of satirical homophobic and racist comments.
Millie Bobby Brown has deactivated her Twitter after being turned into an anti-gay meme.
