LOOK: ‘Stranger Things’ kids invade White House
MANILA, Philippines – After their adorable performance at the Emmy Awards night last month, the children cast of supernatural Netflix series "Stranger Things" stormed the White House for another gig.
"Stranger Things" kids Millie Bobby Brown (Eleven), Finn Wolfhard (Mike Wheeler), Caleb McLaughlin (Lucas) and Gaten Matarazzo (Dustin) recently visited the White House for SXLX or a White House festival of ideas, art, and action. They were joined by the series creators Duffer Brothers, Matt Duffer and Ross Duffer, as well as executive producer Shawn Levy.
SXSL slated October 3, according to the White House, is inspired by South by Southwest. It seeks to bring creators, innovators and organizers who work to improve the lives of their fellow Americans and people around the world together.
US President Barack Obama personally picked the lineup for the said event. "Stranger Things" cast and executives were also joined by artists The Lumineers, Sharon Jones, Leonardo DiCarpio, James Turrel of Flickr and Slack tech CEO Steward Butterfield, among others.
Barack and Michelle Obama met the "Stranger Things" kids. Levy described Barack as "the coolest dude ever."
And these kids shared their precious moments at the White House in a series of social media posts:
