Brown confirmed her look was a tribute to Paltrow on her Instagram. The “Stranger Things” star was styled by Ryan Young for the premiere. Young’s been working with Brown throughout “The Electric State” promo tour, previously dressing her in Annie’s Ibiza for the movie’s premiere in Los Angeles.
The Enola Holmes actor first expressed her desire to play the pop megastar on The Drew Barrymore show in 2022, aged 18. Brown said Spears’ story “resonates with me”, adding: “Growing up in the public eye, watching her videos, watching interviews of her when she was young.”
