The kid stars of Stranger Things are living their best lives ever since the show premiered and became an instant success.
Then, things got amped up again with the success of season 2, and today there are reports floating around that each of the kids is getting a significant raise for season 3, and I have to say BRAVO to that! They work hard! They're getting older! They deserve it.
And they're not only really talented actors, but Millie Bobby Brown and Gaten Matarazzo are proving they're also really great people.
A girl named Ayen tweeted that her brother had thrown a Stranger Things-themed birthday party and invited 8 of his classmates... and that "none of their punk selves showed up."
First of all, this birthday party is SO WELL DONE. I aspire to throw parties as detailed and perfect as this for my kids some day.
Second, I'm already tearing up at the idea that this boy threw a birthday party and kids decided not to show up. It just breaks my heart. And I wish he had invited me so I could have shown up and had so much fun in the Upside Down!
BUT, it's not all sad. Because his sister's tweet caught the attention of Millie Bobby Brown herself! And she offered to come to his birthday next year!
She even added a "please?" to being invited next year, so, what could be cuter?
Oh, you know, just Gaten Matarazzo joining in and saying he would also like to come to the party next year. AND bring party snacks!
*sobbing*
I love these kids and their hearts. It's really, at the end of the day, what it's all about.
Hey Millie and Gaten, maybe you guys could invite him to set for season 3?! I'm sure the tweets mean a lot to him, but imagine how special he would feel to be a part of the actual Upside Down.
I can't wait to see if the other cast members join in on this kid's party next year.
Who needs those classmates anyway! They missed out on what looked like a REALLY cool party.
