Eminem's daughter Hailie Jade has expressed her concerns for the child actors on Stranger Things on her new podcast.
Stranger Things is one of Netflix's most popular shows at the moment, and fans have not stopped discussing the show since the release of season 4.
It seems Eminem's daughter, Hailie, is also a fan of the Upside Down as she opened up on her podcast to share her thoughts on the latest series.
The 26-year-old expressed her concerns for the child actors on the show as she worried that the scary nature of the programme could traumatise the actors.

Hailie explained that, as viewers, our bodies cannot distinguish between events that have happened to us and events we've witnessed on a TV show. She said she hoped the actors on the series didn't experience a similar phenomenon when filming the show.
She said: "Do you think kids who have to act like that...their body processes like it really happened?"
Hailie then went onto explain that she gets scared after watching scary things on TV and explained that as an adult if she filmed something scary, she would keep thinking about it.

However, despite her concerns, Hailie praised the show for the amazing acting skills of the children.
The idea of child actors being left traumatised has long been a question asked by film fanatics.
In 2021, entertainment website Looper spoke to several child actors who revealed that they had enjoyed their time filming horrors.
Danny Lloyd, who was cast as Danny Torrance in The Shining, described the popular horror film as a 'home movie', saying he doesn't find the film too scary. As he was so young during filming, director Stanley Kubrick concealed the plot of the movie from Lloyd.

Meanwhile, Alex Vincent, who played Andy in Child's Play, has said he is glad he starred in the film. He told Pop Horror: "I've gotten to travel all over the world, meeting fans and attending horror conventions.
"It has opened up so many possibilities in my life. I am super grateful!"
Well, it seems like Hailie can breathe a sigh of relief for the Stranger Things kids as no doubt they probably enjoy filming the hit series.
Hailie spoke about the show on the first episode of her podcast, Just A Little Shady - a subtle nod to her dad, Eminem, who of course is well known as Slim Shady.

The New York Post has reported that the rapper's daughter has big plans for her podcast and is launching an entertainment company and filing a trademark to sell merchandise.
There's no word yet on whether her famous father will appear on the podcast, but fans of the rapper can expect to hear anecdotes on Hailie's podcast as her dad is no doubt an influential figure in her life.
