Sophie Turner Slams ‘Super Weird’ Adults Who ‘Abuse’ Finn Wolfhard

GOT star and soon-to-be-wife of the second hottest (don’t @ me) Jonas brother clapped TF back in response to a now-private video posted to Twitter meant to serve as “proof” that Stranger Things star Finn Wolfhard is “rude and “heartless.” The clip showed fans waiting outside of Finn’s hotel on two separate occasions. Name-calling commenced when the young actor didn’t stop to sign autographs. No stranger to growing up famous, Sophie Turner took to her Twitter to come to the 14-year-old’s defense.

“Damn… seeing fully grown adults wait outside the ‘Stranger Things’ kids’ hotels etc , and then abuse them when they don’t stop for them…Is super weird,” she began. “A. What adult in their right mind waits for a CHILD outside their hotel and B is then is offended when the CHILD doesn’t stop.” She’s got a good point there.

She went on to say, “It doesn’t matter if they are an actor… they are kids first. Give them the space they need in order to grow without feeling like they owe…Anyone anything for living their childhood dreams.” She later added another message in her tweets, asking how a parent might feel if somebody began taking pictures of their kid in public without asking.

Turner wasn’t the only actor to speak out on behalf of Finn Wolfhard. His Stranger Things costar Shannon Purser (BARB!!!) also came to his defense, stating that “no actor is under any obligation to stop for anyone. Finn is an incredibly kind human. But he’s human and he needs breaks too.”

Both actors make solid points. Don’t be a weird adult. Don’t assume actors, regardless of age, owe you anything at all in this world. Actually, nobody owes you anything at all in this world. Celebrities have bad days too, and their unwillingness or inability to stop for you is in 100% of situations not meant as a personal attack. In the words of Barb, (Barb!!!) “if can’t handle them needing space, stay away.” Words to live by.
