Here are some photos of Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis in London on Sunday. I believe that they are still in London right now, and have been for about a week. Ashton and Mila are on some kind of European vacation, which is fine. The thing that bugs me is that Mila’s new film Blood Ties just premiered last night at the Cannes Film Festival, and Mila didn’t bother to show up. Maybe she was never scheduled to come or whatever, but seriously, why would it be a big deal for her to fly in for a night? Clive Owen did that! But Mila chose to stay in London with Ashton. And her parents. Because that’s where this relationship is – they spend time with each other’s families.

Mila Kunis introduced boyfriend Ashton Kutcher to her parents over a play and dinner this weekend. On Saturday, the couple took her folks to “Billy Elliott: The Musical” at the Victoria Palace in London. The following night, the four had dinner at Duck & Waffle — the same restaurant where Kunis and Kutcher, who’s in a contentious divorce with Demi Moore, had a double date with Princess Beatrice and her boyfriend, US businessman Dave Clark, the weekend before.

Ugh. Does anyone want to start a pregnancy rumor for Mila? She looks thin to me, but she’s got some layers so maybe she’s pregnant. I know, that was weak. But wouldn’t it make so much sense? If Mila was pregnant, I think a lot of us would be like, “Oh, I understand this relationship now.” But as it is, the only explanation for it is that Mila has NO Douche-Radar. Allegedly, her friends are even telling her “he a ho” and she’s not listening. Ugh, Mila.

It’s been a while since we’ve collectively rolled our eyes at Mila Kunis and whispered “gurl, he’s a douchebag.” So let’s start doing that again! It helps that Mila and Ashton Kutcher have been relatively low-key as a couple for a few months. They don’t walk red carpets together. They do go to Lakers games together, and the tabloids keep saying that they’re pretty much living together now. They’ve been together more than a year. Should we just accept them now? NEVER. I will never not think that Mila could do better.

For the past few weeks, Ashton and Mila have been on some kind of European vacation. They’ve been in Spain, Belgium, and over the weekend they were in London. They actually partied with royalty! It was just Princess Beatrice of York and her boyfriend, but the double date went well, and they all went bar-hopping together. I guess Mila hadn’t heard this gossip about Ashton: Star Magazine claims Ashton still has something of a wandering eye.

Ashton Kutcher is apparently channeling his inner Charlie Sheen and turning into an out-of-control, lady-loving actor! On April 24, while his girlfriend Mila Kunis was away in London, Ashton and producer Guy Oseary – who is also a close friend of Ashton’s ex, Demi Moore – cohosted a party full of sexy women at Guy’s house.

“Ashton was beyond flirty with one tall blonde,” dishes the source. But the actor’s womanizing ways aren’t going unnoticed by Mila’s friends.

“They warm her to be careful… but she trusts him.”

Flirting is not cheating, of course, and Star isn’t saying that Ashton has cheated on Mila, only that he’s still a very flirty guy and that Mila’s friends are concerned (I would be too if Mila was my friend). Before everyone screams “It’s Star, I don’t believe it” (I hate when you do that), keep in mind that Star broke the story about Ashton’s affair with that club girl named Brittany Jones. Ashton brought Brittany to the home he shares with Demi and they boned on the couch, and Brittany sold her story. And didn’t Star also get the exclusive when Ashton fooled around with that other girl in Vegas… on his wedding anniversary?! My point? If Ashton fools around on Mila, he’s got a noticeable pattern and we will hear about it in the tabloids. Ashton fools around with low-hanging fruit, and those are the girls who want their 15 minutes of fame for being “the girl Ashton banged in the club bathroom.” So… again, it’s really just a matter of time. And Mila Kunis doesn’t have much of a Douche Radar.

I don’t know why it’s “Let’s Give Random People A Random Title” week over here, but that’s where we’re headed. First Gwyneth Paltrow was named the Most Beautiful Person by People Magazine, then Kristen Stewart was named the Best Dressed Woman in the world, then Benedict Cumberbatch was named the Sexiest Man in Britain. And now Mila Kunis has scored the coveted (ha!!) title of FHM UK’s “Sexiest Women”. Everything seems… off.

Now, it’s not that Mila isn’t beautiful. She’s beautiful. She’s got a great body, she’s sassy, smart and funny and her career is going well. There are totally worse choices for the “Sexiest Woman” title. But! There are certainly better choices too, right? The editor of FHM’s “100 Sexiest” Dan Jude said, “Not only is [Mila] naturally stunning, but she has a great sense of humour and isn’t afraid to poke fun at herself. The nation has spoken, and the verdict is that she is officially the perfect girlfriend.” And maybe that’s why she got it? By dating Ashton Kutcher, she’s shown a willingness to date d-bags and superficial jerks. Men around the world see her with Ashton and they think, “Damn, I really do have a chance.”

Also on the FHM list: Rihanna (#2), Kelly Brook (#5), Tulisa Contostavlos (#11), Taylor Swift (#12), and Pippa Middleton (#58). There were also a ton of only-mildly-famous-in-the-UK celebrities whose names I didn’t even recognize. You can see more of the list here.

Ashton Kutcher is profiled in the new issue of Elle. He’s promoting the upcoming release of jOBS, in which he plays Apple founder Steve Jobs through his rise, fall and redemption. The interview would have been timely, if jOBS was going to be released as planned on April 19th. Instead it’s been pushed back to this summer, with rumors that the poor reviews at Sundance are to blame. We’ve also heard that Ashton wasn’t well-liked on set, since he went “method” in his acting prep, stayed in character and was mean to the crew. The Elle interview confirms Ashton’s method acting, and they also get some decent quotes from him on his career and approach to privacy. Ashton doesn’t directly confirm that he’s dating Mila Kunis (we already know that) but he does talk about her in a roundabout way. He says he wants to keep this relationship private, basically. As opposed to tweeting bikini photos and sweet nothings to her, I guess. Here’s more:

On how people think he’s stupid
People fill in the blanks really fast. They go, ‘Oh my God, he’s on a show and [plays] stupid, so he must be stupid.’ I can’t control that, nor do I try to, nor do I want to. There’s something advantageous about having people underestimate your intellect, insomuch as a lot of things are revealed to you. They assume you don’t know what you’re talking about, then all of a sudden, you do. And the next thing you know, you have information you wouldn’t normally have.

Admits he’s in films for the money
There was a point in time where I was doing movies to be able to afford to live in a certain way. You know, I didn’t really go the starving-artist route. I kind of went and did massive, commercial things. [Two and a Half Men] is a very commercial show. But it’s very fun to do. I’m surrounded by an amazing group of people. And I can be home for dinner.

On privacy
You know, I’ve learned the hard way how valuable privacy is. And I’ve learned that there are a lot of things in your life that really benefit from being private. And relationships are one of them. And I am going to do everything in my power to have this relationship be private.

Alludes to the mistresses who sold him out
When you become well known, you start to have suspicions about people’s intentions that you’re becoming close with. Because I think there’s been an artificial value that’s been put on fame in the world—people don’t want to do something. They just want to be famous. And so I think you develop a natural suspicion of that. And, you know, I have a little bit of naïveté about trusting people—with the notion that if you share and if you give to people, they’ll respect your privacy in turn. Unfortunately, that’s not the case.

On if he dated Mila when they were doing That 70s Show
People will fill in the blanks however they want.

On if he’s still friendly with Moore’s daughters
There are some things that are better left private.

On fame
Someone once told me, ‘If anyone wants to be rich and famous, let them be rich first and see if they still want to be famous.’

Remember what Ashton said just a couple of years ago about how great it was to send twitter and facebook messages to Demi? He wrote an essay that said, in part, “You are declaring your love for everyone to see. Who doesn’t like to be publicly adored?” Then he got busted for cheating with a couple of different women who went public with their stories, and he complained about the media publishing that story and how there was “no gatekeeper of truth” or something. As for what he’s saying this time around, I get the impression that if he was dating another “look at me” woman, like another woman who loved the attention, he would be tweeting photos of them together and sending her little messages again. It strikes me that his change of heart is more about Mila telling him to tone it down rather than any self awareness on his part.

Last week we heard the news that Demi Moore had filed her own divorce papers against her estranged husband, Ashton Kutcher, and that she was planning on going for spousal support as well as legal fees. Ashton had already filed for divorce from Demi over the holidays, but apparently talks had stalled between their lawyers, prompting Demi to file separately. TMZ had a report claiming that it wasn’t true that negotiations were at an impasse, and that they were moving along but Demi was still determined to stick it to cheating Ashton. TMZ’s story sounded like it came from Ashton’s camp, because their version had Demi as the party with the higher net worth.

Now Radar has a story that sounds like it’s from Demi’s perspective. Their insider acknowledges that Demi’s “finances are solid” but cites her contribution to Ashton’s career during their marriage. I can’t argue with that point, Ashton’s career did benefit quite a bit from Demi’s high profile. I bet she put him in touch with plenty of industry insiders as well. Here’s more:

Demi Moore is planning to hit her cheating estranged hubby, Ashton Kutcher, where it really hurts — by plundering his cold hard cash — and as the couple did not sign a prenup, the highly paid 35-year-old is pretty much at her mercy! RadarOnline.com is exclusively reporting.

“When they first got together Demi was worth a considerable amount more than Ashton, but obviously that’s changed – drastically!” A source tells Radar. “Ashton is now worth at least $100 million whereas Demi’s not been bringing in the big bucks for years. Ashton has his Two and a Half Men contract, which pays him a cool $20 million a year — and he’s also invested in several very successful internet startups including Skype and Foursquare. Ashton also has a very successful production company and a lucrative endorsement deal with Nikon. Demi doesn’t know the full extent of Ashton’s finances, but trust me, she will before a divorce settlement is finally reached!”

As previously reported, last week Moore formally filed her response to Ashton’s divorce papers, which he filed on December 21 of last year. And, it’s evident from Moore’s response that she wants Kutcher to pay! The 50-year-old is seeking spousal support from the super rich actor and wants him to foot the bill for all of her legal costs.

“Demi’s finances are solid, but she took a back seat during their marriage and allowed Ashton to be the star – and big earner – of the family,” the source says. “Demi believes she provided crucial guidance to Ashton that helped him get to where he is today, and she thinks it is only fair she is compensated for that now they are no longer together. She’s been unhappy with the settlement talks so far because she feels that Ashton doesn’t recognize the impact she had on his life.”

Further spurring on Moore to go after Kutcher’s finances was his extramarital affair and subsequent new relationship with Mila Kunis.

“Demi is still really p*ssed off at Ashton,” a source previously told Radar.

“He humiliated her and then he treated her badly, which she didn’t expect and it really made her mad. She basically wants to hurt him the way he hurt her, and this is the only way she knows how.”

[From Radar Online]

So Demi is going for monetary revenge I guess. I really can’t argue that she didn’t contribute to his career. As I mentioned last week, Ashton had done “The 70s Show,” “Punk’d” and Dude, Where’s My Car? before he met Demi. People paint him as some kind of Internet genius but he seems like more of a doofus who knows how to operate a computer and has a propensity to overshare. I doubt his career would have surpassed Wilmer Valderrama’s if he hadn’t hooked up with Demi, is what I’m saying. He’s not a good actor.

However, it’s not like Demi needs the money at all, she’s not struggling and she’s not some single mom trying to make ends meet. All her daughters are grown and likely not even talking to her. She’s doing this because she’s mad and still hurt. I don’t blame her, but I don’t feel any sympathy for her either.

This story is confusing to me, because I thought that Demi and Ashton’s divorce was finally moving forward after Ashton served Demi with divorce papers over the holidays. The story went that he was waiting for Demi to pull the plug, since he wanted to give her that chance at dignity, which she’s of course incapable of having any semblance of. After Demi kept stalling and leaking stories about the boy toys she was dating instead of attempting for closure on her long-over marriage, Ashton finally filed for divorce. Rumor had it that Ashton’s girlfriend, Mila Kunis, convinced him to make it final.

Now we have the news that Demi has filed her own divorce papers. I don’t get it, couldn’t she just continue to negotiate with Ashton through their lawyers instead of incurring tens of thousands of additional legal fees by filing again? Maybe she figures she’ll more than recoup that with Ashton’s money. According to the NY Post, Demi has been trying to work with Ashton but he’s being a tightwad and doesn’t want to pay up, hence her filing again:

Demi Moore is finally filing divorce papers, 16 months after splitting up with Ashton Kutcher, Page Six can exclusively reveal.

An insider tells us she tired of trying to reach a confidential settlement with Kutcher, and that the couple’s divorce could go to a trial.

“Ashton made a lot of money after marrying Demi — a lot more than she made — but despite him becoming just as famous through her, he believes he doesn’t owe her that much,” the source said,” adding of Demi: “She has had enough.”

Moore’s lawyers could file paperwork in Los Angeles as early as today, we hear. Kutcher filed divorce papers in December, a year after the couple split, but this would be the first time Moore responds. She’d been hoping to quietly negotiate a settlement and then file the papers once an agreement was reached.

But negotiations got bogged down, and, “Ashton has been very difficult during the talks,” the insider said. “You could even say he has been hostile.” Kutcher is the highest-paid actor on TV, pulling in $24 million last year for “Two and a Half Men,” and he’s also become a savvy investor in various tech start-ups.

“After over a year of attempting to reach a settlement, Demi is definitely ready to move on,” the source said of her decision to file. “It’s hoped lawyers for both sides can reach a settlement this spring, otherwise the divorce will go into litigation and trial.”

Kutcher’s being repped by LA celebrity lawyer Laura Wasser, while Moore’s retained powerhouse New York attorney William Beslow, who recently helped Linda Evangelista land a generous settlement in a child support battle with mogul François-Henri Pinault.

Since Moore, 50, announced she was ending her six-year marriage to Kutcher, now 35, in 2011, speculation has run rampant as to why they haven’t reached a settlement.

Demi was in New York on Monday night with friends. The source added, “She is healthy and happy, and just wants to move on with her life.”

[From The NY Post]

Kaiser thinks that Demi is trying to go public with the news that Ashton isn’t playing fair, by Demi’s estimation, in order to get a bigger settlement. That would make sense. Also, of course Page Six has this news. They’ve run stories in the past about how sexy Demi is and which much-younger guy is her flavor of the month. I’m not buying that Demi has been trying to reach a settlement with Ashton for “over a year.” Ashton just filed at the end of 2012. BUT if Ashton is trying to make sure Demi doesn’t get a fair portion of his earnings during their marriage, I understand on some level why she’s pushing for this. Isn’t she filthy rich in her own right though? I’m having trouble mustering up any sympathy for her, probably because she’s been trying to get the public’s sympathy for so long now.

Here are some photos of Mila Kunis and Rachel Weisz at last night’s UK premiere of Oz the Great and Powerful. I’ll cover the Michelle Williams photos in another post, because I have some other stuff to say about her. So, let’s talk fashion! In a head-to-head competition between hot brunette ladies, I would normally pick Rachel Weisz every time. She’s one of my girls! I love her. I think she’s beautiful and accessible and talented. But Rachel’s Michael Kors gown is kind of blah, right? I don’t even want to call it “fug” – it’s just kind of basic and not incredibly flattering and the color is meh. It just feels like Rachel is phoning it in, and I don’t understand why. She’s stunning, and usually her style rocks. And I really hate to say this, but Rachel IS looking kind of Botoxy lately. Either that or her makeup artist is just really, really bad (which could totally be the case).

Meanwhile, Mila has that sort of “everywoman” quality like Rachel, although… this thing with Ashton has totally skewed my normally favorable opinion of her lately. Mila wore this ruffled tablecloth by Alexander McQueen, and by that I mean Sarah Burton for McQueen, as further evidence of how awful Burton has become for the McQueen label. While I didn’t always like or agree with McQueen’s designs, he had a genuinely exciting perspective and he made fascinating clothes. Burton is just making pretty-princess gowns with lace and ruffles that can be more easily consumed by the likes of Amanda Seyfried and Duchess Kate. On any other woman, I think this dress would be a total disaster. But Mila’s confidence and bitchface are almost making this look work. Almost!

Here are some photos of James Franco, Mila Kunis, and Michelle Williams at the Moscow photocall for Oz the Great and Powerful. Yes, Franco has tucked his jeans into his combat boots. That’s the artistic way to wear combat boots, don’t you know? Poor Mila and Michelle are like, “Ugh, this douche” — see how Mila is leaning away from him? Mila even has her own douche at home, so the fact that she’s unconsciously shrinking away from the Franco really says something. But both girls both look pretty cute. I think Mila’s grey, ruched dress would have looked a lot better without all of those front, lateral ruffles that are a bit much, but the animal-print shoes are an interesting addition. Michelle’s wearing a black Victoria Beckham getup, which is deceptively intricate with a suit-like top and a three-tiered skirt. She looks fresh and great here.

That’s not the real story though. Franco has taken the peroxide plunge in a very bad way. Take a closer look:

Pretty bad, right? I hope this new change is for a role. A lot of you begrungingly admit to finding James hot, but does he still do it for you while looking like your friendly neighborhood meth dealer? It honestly looks like he’s been hitting the Sun-In pretty hard and didn’t get the bleach job done at a professional salon. Like, he probably got stoned off his ass and decided to make his head into an art exhibit. Not pretty.

Here’s a few photos of Franco acting as Grand Marshal for the Daytona 500 on Sunday. I’ll be he turned that little, unassuming race into a work of pure art.

Mila Kunis covers the March issue of Marie Claire UK to promote her role in Oz the Great and Powerful. As is typical for magazine spreads involving Mila, the cover and photoshoot play up the inherent gorgeousness found in Mila’s eyes with tons of dramatic, smoky eyeliner and shadow. Somehow, the heavy-handed eye makeup always works for her, which might be one reason why it’s such a shock when we see her walking around without makeup. To be certain, it always makes me feel better when I see Mila without makeup because it makes me feel better about being so lazy about wearing makeup myself. Usually, a wee bit of eyeliner is all I leave home with in addition to a subtle pop of lip color. If it’s a very, very special occasion, I’ll add some eyeshadow and powder too. Damn, I’m fancy.

Anyway, Mila looks pretty sultry in this photoshoot, and the interview excerpts released thus far aren’t terribly interesting in that she’s once again talking about wanting to cut back on work when she starts a family. However, there is one thing she discusses that is very interesting; that is, Mila apparently suffered an inflammation of one of her irises several years ago, and as a result, she nearly went blind in one eye. In the aftermath, she was left with one brown and one green eye. Now she has a glass lens so that both eyes are the same color. Kind of scary, right?

On fame: “To say my life hasn’t changed would be a lie. It has changed, I don’t really know how. I can’t complain, not that I am complaining, but I can’t leave my house as freely as I used to. But I’ve also travelled a lot for work, so that’s changed. I have been very lucky.”

On recovering from near blindness: “I have [one] glass lens. It’s very dramatic. I had it fixed. I did it three years ago maybe four. It’s not that big a deal.”

Does she censor herself? “Lately, more. More. But I’ve always said that it is much easier to be honest than to be caught up in a bunch of lies. At least this way, you know who you are.”

Looking towards the future: “I don’t think I can do this three-movies-a-year thing. It’s too much. There comes a point in your life where you want to be….home. I want to explore other parts of this industry to see what aspects of it I can get myself into, so that I can… work out of home maybe. Like producing. Then I can have, like, a life, in one location.”

[From Marie Claire UK]

That bit where Mila continues to mull over the future in acting is very telling (I think) in terms of where she sees her relationship with Ashton Kutcher going. If Mila really wants to stay in one place while maintaining a lucrative career, she could always go back to television, but producing probably provides a little more freedom in setting one’s own schedule.

These are some new photos of Mila Kunis yesterday in LA. According to Fame/Flynet, she stopped by the salon (mani/pedi?) and then went to Taco Bell. Which is a decent plan for a day. I wish I could spend my days doing that kind of stuff. Sigh… the life of an actor. Work for two months then have six months off then work for a month on promotion. That’s it. Interestingly enough, Mila is smart enough to realize that this too shall pass, and she’s already making plans for what her life will be like when she’s no longer in-demand for movies:

Mila Kunis has admitted she’ll quit Hollywood when she becomes a mum. The ‘Black Swan’ star claims that “one day,” she’ll give up acting as it’s impossible to have a family and constantly travel.

The actress, who is currently dating Ashton Kutcher, claimed she didn’t think acting would be her “life” and that one day she wanted to settle down and be a “present mum,” rather than someone always on the go.

“The truth is I don’t think I can do this for the rest of my life, I also want a life. I want a family, like, one day, not tomorrow,” she told Playboy magazine. “I want to be a present mom. When I was growing up both my mom and dad worked full-time in one location. I’m never in the same place for more than two months. How am I ever going to have a family like that? You have to make compromises.”

She explained: “If that means I do one movie a year, if people still want to see me and hire me and I don’t suck by that point, great. My only source of happiness can’t be dependent on something so fickle.”

The actress, who recently starred in ‘Oz The Great And Powerful’, is said to be head over heels for her That 70s Show co-star who she’s been good friends with for over 15 years.

According to Us Weekly, the couple have even moved in together, with the insider adding: “They really are perfect for one another. They always have a lot of fun together.”

[From Entertainmentwise]

Many outlets are running these quotes as “Mila wants to have Ashton’s baby and quit Hollywood.” But that’s not really what she’s saying. She’s saying what a lot of actresses say – that her career will take a backseat if and when she becomes a mother. We’ll see about the follow-through, but I suspect that Mila definitely will choose to have babies, and that she’ll take a step away from her career when that happens. But will it happen with Ashton?! I’ve been thinking for a while that it might. Maybe not right now. Maybe not next month. But if they’re still together by the time Ashton and Demi Moore’s divorce is finalized, I could see it.
