Was Mila Kunis Mentioned In The Sean 'Diddy' Combs Trial?
Since Sean 'Diddy' Combs was arrested for charges of sex trafficking, racketeering and transportation, his many A-list friends have come under scrutiny. Diddy, who denies all allegations and has pleaded not guilty in court, threw infamous partied throughout the 2000s which were attended by countless celebrities- a lot of whom have now been mentioned during his trial. So far, plenty of people have taken to the stand and testified against Diddy, including his ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura, Danity Kane singer Dawn Richard, rapper Kid Cudi, Diddy's former personal assistant David James and an escort Diddy allegedly paid for 'freak offs' called Daniel Phillip. Various celebrities have also been mentioned during the course of the trial including Lauren London, Usher, who previously described Diddy as a mentor and Michael B. Jordan, who reportedly had a brief flirtation with Ventura during the period of their on-off relationship. However, it's not yet clear where they would fit into the case and there's been no suggestion that they were involved in the alleged crimes, nor are they accused of any wrongdoing. Another celebrity that's come under fire is Mila Kunis and her husband Ashton Kutcher. Although neither of them have explicitly been mentioned in the trial so far and have not been accused of any crime, their close ties to the music mogul has meant that they've come under intense media scrutiny ever since he was arrested last year. After his arrest, photos emerged showing a young Kutcher with Combs, including one of him co-hosting the record producer's annual White Party in 2009. It remains uncertain whether either of them will be called to testify in the Diddy trial. Kutcher has reportedly been friends with Diddy ever since 2003, right around the time the actor launched his prank show Punk'd. Diddy told James Corden on The Late Late Show in 2018, 'I gave [Kutcher] a call one day and said, 'I heard that you are going to punk me, and I just don't think that's a good idea."' Appearing on the YouTube series Hot Onesin 2019, Ashton Kutcher declined to share details about the rapper's parties, saying, 'I've got a lot I can't tell.' He also recalled that the pair began training for the New York City Marathon together shortly after they first became friends. 'We had paparazzi all around us at the time and [Diddy] was like, 'You gotta slow down, but make it look like you're not slowing down, because I don't want to look like I'm not going to be able to finish this thing.' Kunis has been forced to deny rumours that she and Ashton are splitting up due to tension placed on the marriage during the trial. Unfortunately for the actress, this Diddy trial follows another public relations controversy for her and her husband. In 2023, they both voiced their public support for their That '70s Show co-star Danny Masterson after he was accused of sexual assault. The couple faced backlash when their character letters were made public in which they praised their friend as a 'role model' and an 'exceptional person.' Shortly afterwards, Masterson was sentenced to 30 years in prison when a jury found him guilty of two counts of rape. With Diddy's trial predicted to end in early July, we'll need to wait and see if Mila or Ashton are mentioned or even called to the stand. Sarah O'Byrne has worked for Bauer Media since May 2023.

Josh Duhamel says beating Ashton Kutcher in a modeling competition made him feel like he 'won Miss America'
Before they were competing for roles in Hollywood, actors Josh Duhamel and Ashton Kutcher were duking it out in a modeling contest. Duhamel competed in the 1997 competition in hopes of getting exposure with a Hollywood agency, he said on the latest episode of the Not Skinny but Not Fat podcast. 'The word was that it was between this kid from Iowa, this kid from Oregon,' Duhamel told host Amanda Hirsch. 'The kid from Iowa was Ashton [Kutcher].' 'First runner-up between me and Ashton,' Duhamel recalled. 'They say his name, and I swear to God, I just won Miss America. I was so excited. I felt like they lifted me up and put [on] a sash and a tiara. My god. They didn't do this, but that's what it felt like.' Despite winning, it appeared at first that Kutcher had the last laugh, because "nothing happened" for Duhamel's career in the aftermath of his victory. 'I didn't even get an agency from it,' Duhamel admitted. 'Ashton Kutcher went on, got [a] Calvin Klein campaign, got That '70s Show, got all these things. I was so pissed. Because I felt like, 'But I won! I was the male model of the year!'' Two years later, Duhamel landed his big break on All My Children, and eventually nabbed roles in Las Vegas, Win a Date with Tad Hamilton, The Picture of Dorian Gray, the Transformers film franchise and many more. Ultimately, Duhamel — who said he and Kutcher have since had a laugh about their early days — said that not immediately getting success from his modeling win was likely better for his career in the long run. 'It was actually a good thing probably because I had to go out and, you know, hit the streets, and really sort of bust my ass to make anything happen,' he said. As for his side of the story, Kutcher previously told SiriusXM's The Howard Stern Show that he was initially angry about losing the competition. 'Handsome son of a bitch, that f---er. I was so f------ upset at this guy for so long,' Kutcher said of Duhamel. 'And then finally I ran into him, and I was like, 'All right, you're good looking.'" "I had to give it up, right?" he told Stern, before joking that "coming in second" was the "story of my life." Currently, Duhamel stars as rancher Staten Kirkland on new Netflix series, Ransom Canyon. Kutcher most recently starred in the Netflix romcom Your Place or Mine and appeared on the sequel series That ʼ90s Show. Read the original article on Entertainment Weekly

Tallulah Willis Makes Rare Comments About Ex-Stepdad Ashton Kutcher — Then Realizes It 'Should Have Been a Private Message'
Tallulah Willis is making rare comments about her relationship with her former stepdad, Ashton Kutcher. The 31-year-old actress commented on Gwyneth Paltrow's Instagram post where she spoke about her recent podcast episode with husband Brad Falchuk, in which they discussed stepparenting in their blended family. Willis, who is the daughter of Demi Moore and Bruce Willis, noted in her message that she is familiar with the topic. "I have a lot to say on this! Especially how to move through an ex- step parent ❤️❤️," wrote Tallulah, whose mom, Moore, remarried Kutcher when Tallulah was 11. Moore and Kutcher were together from 2005 to 2013, until the pair divorced.

Related: Tallulah Willis Recalls Going Through a 'Really Hard' Time Around When Mom Demi Moore Began Dating Ashton Kutcher When another commenter asked if she was referring to Kutcher, Tallulah wrote, "This maybe should have been a private message lol but yes I have personal experience with this." She later added, "It's an important conversation tbh ☀️," and "also. No one needs to be bad guy for a situation to be healed. there's room for everyone." Moore married Kutcher in 2005, three years after her divorce from her ex, Bruce. Kutcher, who was 25 at the time, is 15 years younger than The Substance actress. After their divorce in 2013, Kutcher went on to marry his That 70's Show costar, Mila Kunis, and is now dad to two kids. Tallulah has previously opened up about her experience when her mom began dating Kutcher. In a June 2023 episode of Fox's reality series Stars on Mars, the actress said she didn't quite grasp the gravity of how famous her parents were while she lived in Idaho as a kid. "I knew my parents had this job that made them like this thing and we got to do cool stuff, but I didn't fully understand," she told other cast members on the show, after Ronda Rousey asked about Tallulah's experience growing up with famous parents. She then went on to admit that she went through difficult times after Moore began dating Kutcher in 2003. 'It was like, 2003, my mom had just started dating Ashton, it was that moment," Tallulah told her fellow Stars on Mars castmates during the episode. "There was a lot going on. And I really went inside of myself and that did send me into a total dumpster fire." "It was really hard, and I'm still unpacking," she added of coming to grips with her family's fame amidst the end of her parents' relationship and Moore's marriage to Kutcher. "However, I found the other side of that, which is like — I really love myself now, and I love my family. I love my family." For his part, Kutcher has said that he still tries to make an effort to stay in contact with his former stepdaughters. Back in February 2020, Kutcher appeared on an episode of Marc Maron's WTF podcast and said he still makes a "conscious effort to stay in touch" with Tallulah and her older sisters, Rumer and Scout. 'Tallulah was 8 or 9, she was the youngest. Rumer was 12 or 13 when we first started dating,' he said at the time. 'When we were getting divorced, Tallulah was graduating high school.' 'I was helping raise teenage girls through their adolescence,' he added of his time as the sisters' stepfather. 'I love them. I'm never going to stop loving them and respecting them and honoring them and rooting for them to be successful in whatever they are pursuing.' "I was never trying to be their father," he went on to explain of his relationships with Tallulah and her sisters years after his relationship with Moore ended. "I always had respect and honored Bruce [Willis], and I think he's a brilliant human being and a wonderful man. If they don't want an engagement with me, I'm not going to force it upon them. But they all do and it's great.' Read the original article on People

Tallulah Willis Makes a Rare Comment About Her Ex-Stepdad, Ashton Kutcher
Tallulah Willis, the youngest daughter of Demi Moore and Bruce Willis, has some feelings regarding her ex-stepdad, Ashton Kutcher. Moore and Kutcher dated from 2005 to 2013 and while the family has rarely opened up about their family dynamics, Tallulah's most recent Instagram comment may provide some insight about that time of her life. Tallulah, whose sisters include Rumer and Scout, commented on a post uploaded by Gwyneth Paltrow, in which she and her now-husband Brad Falchuk discuss their experience blending families. The youngest Willis daughter left a comment that read, "I have a lot to say on this. Especially how to move through and ex-step-parent.' She later clarified her cryptic comment when a different Instagram user asked her if she was talking about Kutcher. (Her dad Bruce has been married to his wife, Emma Hemming, since 2009 and they share two daughters, Mabel and Evelyn.) Tallulah confirmed she was referencing Kutcher. "This maybe should have been a private message lol,' Tallulah replied. 'but yes I have personal experience with this.' This isn't the first time she's spoken about the impact that her mom and Kutcher's relationship had on her when she was younger. "It was like 2003, my mom had just started dating Ashton," she said during a movie premiere in 2023. "It was a moment, a lot going on and I really went inside of myself, and that did send me into like a total dumpster fire. It was really hard, and I'm still unpacking." She, along with her mother and sisters, also appeared on Jada Pinkett-Smith, her mother, and Willow Smith's video series, Red Table Talk. In the episode, Tallulah told the group that she felt "left behind" at a young age. "Everyone left the house and it was just me living there. I know that she does [love me], one hundred percent," Tallulah said about her mom. "But in that moment you're hurt, and you can't fathom that someone that loves you would do that to you, and would choose others more than you." Read the original article on InStyle

Pittsburgh man arrested for possession of child porn after disembarking from cruise in Florida
A Pittsburgh man coming home from a Caribbean cruise ended up in the custody of U.S. Marshals who said they found child pornography on his phone. Matthew Kutcher, who is from Plum, was in Miami after being on a cruise, and the U.S. Customs and Border Protection said they discovered at least 10 videos of child pornography on his phone in a hidden folder. The 38-year-old is now being charged with possession and transportation of child pornography. Several people who live at Park Side Estates in Plum said he lived there with his girlfriend and described him as a nice, friendly guy. "Disturbing, what more can you say?" said Jackie McDuffey, who lives a few houses away from Kutcher. "If you have to do all of that, something is wrong with you. It's a community of kids, it's kid porn, kid pornography, we don't want that." According to the criminal complaint, Kutcher finished a cruise at the end of March, and he entered the U.S. at a port in Miami. U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers inspected his property, and Kutcher agreed and provided the passcode to unlock his iPhone. That's when officers discovered several videos of child pornography in a hidden photos folder. Also on his phone were voyuer-style photographs he took of young girls on that cruise as well as others from previous cruises. He also sent a photo to someone on Telegram in September, showing two girls in softball uniforms with a text reading, "I did some volunteer work at a softball event this week, they had no idea the pervert I was." He later wrote, "I was ready to drag one of them into the woods, the little one would put up less of a fight." When asked about the hidden folder photo album on his phone, Kutcher told agents that he wanted to contact a lawyer. An employee at Townplace Suites in Harmarville confirmed he worked there. "Someone like that, especially around kids, if he's convicted, he needs to go," said McDuffey. We have reached out to the U.S. Attorney's Office in Miami as well as the jail in Broward County, Florida, about Kutcher's status, but have yet to hear back. We also reached out to the hotel where he works, and they referred us to their corporate office.
