Actress Millie Bobby Brown has expressed a strong desire to appear on the BBC reality competition show "The Traitors," citing her perceived ability to deceive as a key qualification. Brown, known for her breakout role as Eleven in "Stranger Things," believes this skill would make her a strong contender on the show.
In a recent interview, the 22-year-old claimed she once successfully passed a lie detector test, despite admitting to evading questions. She recounted the experience with Louis Partridge, a co-star in the Sherlock Holmes spin-off movie "Enola Holmes." According to Brown, while Partridge was visibly nervous during the polygraph, she was told she was a "pathological liar" by the test's interpretation.
"I so want to be on The Traitors. I think I’d be really good," Brown told The Sun. "Do you know why? I did a lie detector test with Louis, and Louis was sweating during the whole thing and could not lie. And then he said, ‘Her hands are getting cooler and she’s evading the questions’. Somehow, the report has come back, like, ‘She’s a pathological liar’."
"The Traitors," hosted by Claudia Winkleman, is a reality competition series where contestants, known as "Faithfuls" and "Traitors," engage in psychological challenges and missions. The objective for the Faithfuls is to uncover the Traitors among them, while the Traitors aim to eliminate the Faithfuls without being discovered. Brown's self-professed talent for deceptive communication aligns with the core dynamics of the game.
