Ashton Kutcher and Natalie Portman are still promoting the hell out of their f*ck buddy film, No Strings Attached, which is out this Friday. Ashton has a new interview with Redbook [via US Weekly] in which he reveals that he waited before having sex with Demi and was friends with her first or something. Maybe she just wasn’t into him at first and thought he was an idiot. It’s hard to tell what he’s saying exactly, because he’s not the most articulate person. That’s probably why he prefers communicating in short bursts of text speak.
“My relationship was a relationship first,” the 32-year-old actor tells Redbook. “Well, there wasn’t anything physical happening for awhile, but from the get-go it was more than friendship. It was a deeper connection than that.”
The Iowa native — who once dated January Jones and the late Brittany Murphy — claims that all men reach a point where they want to leave their bachelor days behind them.
“I think guys wind up…not wanting another guy sleeping with the girl they’re with,” he reasons. “But eventually everyone wants something more. We all have that desire for something special, something committed. We all want to be The One.”

Yeah, guys like Ashton want to make sure they’re the only guy “sleeping with the girl they’re with,” but they don’t want that “girl” to be the only girl they’re sleeping with. It doesn’t work both ways for them.
In another interview, Kutcher talks about how his “youngest daughter” went on a date, and was prescreened by him. Kutcher’s “youngest daughter” would be Tallulah Belle, who turns 16 next month. I wonder if Bruce Willis is going to have a little talk with Ashton for not only claiming Tallulah as his daughter, but for weaseling his way into the traditional boyfriend-screener role that Bruce has so willingly taken on in the past. Who would you find more intimidating, Die Hard or Dude, Where’s My Car?
“I think holding the door for the girl that you are having casual sex with is very romantic,” Kutcher told me during a recent one-on-one interview we had in Los Angeles.
“My youngest daughter just went on a date with a kid,” Kutcher continued. “I made him come in. He said hello. He walked her to the door at the end of the night and did all the right things. So that gives me hope.
“I think this movie does point out, though, that we have to stop acting like casual sex isn’t happening, and start to be realistic about what a modern courting relationship is like,” Kutcher went on to say.
[From Hollywood News via Huffington Post]
According to Ashton, casual sex is happening somewhere out in the world and in his movies, but not in his own home either in his current relationship (the one he’s honest about) or in his “youngest daughter’s” relationship. Maybe he should put the smart phone down and take some lessons on public relations. He might be able to make a coherent point.

Until when? He turned 16? Sorry…just read the title so far.
I think his mouth should be taped shut until he has something coherent to say (that may be never).
Wow, that is one of the fakest laugh pics I have ever seen. And since when did he become the next Dr. Ruth ?
I’m sure his youngest daughter also just loves that he’s blabbing about her dates.
“I think guys wind up…not wanting another guy sleeping with the girl they’re with,”
This guy is not Confusius or Gandhi…spread your intellectual wings grasshopper.
I actually give him credit for taking on a father role with the kids. That’s the way it should be. There’s room for both Bruce and Ashton to be their dad and I suspect he wouldn’t have the balls to call her his “daughter” if Bruce hadn’t vetted the whole thing first. More power to him. Whatever they are, they all seem like good parents.
And I say this as someone who isn’t a fan of the three of them.
demis children got strong faces.. tallulahs eyes are weird to me.
“I think holding the door for the girl that you are having casual sex with is very romantic,” Kutcher told me during a recent one-on-one interview we had in Los Angeles.
This just struck me as all kinds of wrong.
Demi’s neck doesn’t match her face..gee..wonder why…
These two would have to be the most annoying and nauseating couple. What will they do next for attention? Start a sex blog?
Demi better keep her eyes open. One image I saw of Ashton, he was looking at her daughter, Rumer’s boobs.
Y’know, we all have our opinions (and none of us are afraid to express them here!) regarding sex, relationships, what is and is not appropriate. And while I do not always agree with everyone, I respect their opinions.
But I draw the line at Kelso being the sage who determines what “modern courting relationships” are.
I really don’t like being mean, but I gotta say that Bruce & Demi made some seriously unattractive kids.
And before you rip me for that, look at the Beckhams, the Rossdales, and the Jolie-Pitts (esp. Shiloh). Those are attractive children.
The Willis’? Not so much. Now if they’d just stop trying to force them on us.
Oh, and Ashton’s an ass.
STFU already ASSTON ! and they are NOT YOUR DAUGHTERS! they are demi’s and bruce’s… GET YOUR OWN! geez both he and DIMMY give me the heebies
He is so annoying…don’t know how or why she puts up with him. His personality just zaps any hope of a hotness factor.
Does anyone else remember Demi making a movie similar to this one? The movie with Rob Lowe, “About last night”.
Which is a movie I really like.
But it was about starting a relationship, that began with casual sex.
What I would love to see is Ashton getting a haircut. Geez I hate limp looking long hair on men.
And he is a nice looking man when he is groomed. With a good haircut.
Better be silent and thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.

Aha-that’s what he was waiting for-until Demi’s sutures were taken out or she could go without a compression garment from lipo or implants!
And the irony of Kutcher going shot-gun wielding daddy with a 16 year old…Oy!
I’d be embarrassed to be married to this guy. What a smarmy little creep. I suspect his character in those annoying camera commercials is his real persona. Demi, I look at you and see desperation on soooo many levels. I’d take Bruce Willis any day.
He is annoying, boring and stupid. Well probably not that stupid since he was screwing around and he has produced show(s) that have made money.
Demi when she was young she was very pretty. Now I think she is not aging that well and instead of showing that she is a strong woman she seems to be insecure and very clingy.
Wait. Let me understand this. It is romantic if the boy holds open a door for his “daughter”, and this is “doing all the right things” but casual sex at age 15 or 16 is a given in modern relationships?
Man, I must be a dinosaur. I would rather have my kids exhibit some self-restraint and self-respect than setting the bar so low that having the door opened for you is regarded as some kind of reflection of respect.
Whatever happened to waiting to have sex with someone of particular value to you?
Regardless, he is a fecking idiot.
Demi looks like an old memaw in the mouth/chin area. Why couldn’t she have just aged gracefully? There’s a beauty in that. Look at Meryl Streep, or Julianne Moore.
I remember seeing photos of he and Demi making out at some awards show while Tallulah (the little one with the creepy eyes) was sitting on Ashton’s lap. It was extremely inappropriate.
I am still amazed that this moron got to star in a movie with Natalie Portman!
Yeah Ashton you would have to wait while dating Demi before Bruce go all die hard on your ass.
@ December (#15) – all doubt removed…lol
@Diane: I couldn’t agree with you more. I have NEVER understood the appeal of this smarmy little twerp. Every time I see one of his look-how-cool-I-look camera ads, it makes me want to punch the tv!
Talking about “his” 15 yr old daughter and “casual sex” and dating all in one breath is too weird. It sounds like he’s saying, yeah, they’re probably having sex.
Tallulah Belle and Demi must be so proud.
His laugh annoys me more than Julia Roberts.
Shut up, Ashton, about all men want to be the one and how it was serious from the beginning and blah blah. You slept with a two-bit h re, and she said Demi brings women home for you both to share. We don’t need advice from you.
