Movie Reviews and Previews Wake Up Dead Man is the creepy one As I write this, it is my final night in Toronto for TIFF and Wake Up Dead Man did not fit into my schedule. I am bereft, I am bothered, I am bemused, I am bereaved(?), I am exhausted and running out of b-synonyms. The teaser for Wake Up Dead By Sarah • Sep 09, 2025 10:35 am
Ben Affleck Netflix advertises the movies it doesn’t support Netflix’s annual fan event, Tudum, occurred over the weekend. It’s their effort to create an in-house marketing machine/hype event a la Disney’s D23, and it’s sort of working. Certainly, there were people who showed up in person and shrieked at celebrities standing on a stage. By Sarah • Jun 02, 2025 11:20 am

BFFs Mila and Ashton: a video plea We can probably jump right in as this story is everywhere: Danny Masterson was convicted of multiple counts of rape and sentenced to 30 years in prison. Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis wrote letters in support of Danny to be considered by the judge for sentencing. (One report said he By Maria • Sep 11, 2023 09:37 am
Style Outfit of the Week: Jessie J + Mila Kunis bonus sweater There haven’t been all that many looks to consider lately because, well, lockdown is happening in a lot of places again. There was, however, a red carpet in London last night for Cirque du Soleil’s LUZIA and Jessie J gave us an outfit! It’s hard to go By Lainey • Jan 14, 2022 03:21 pm
Style Mila and Ashton’s Thanksgiving Hike Thanksgiving is the perfect day for a hike. I love a Thanksgiving hike. Jacek and I call it “epic walk” and we do it every Thanksgiving. It’s a 22km (13 miles) loop with our dogs and it takes between two to three hours, depending on how sniffy the beagles By Lainey • Nov 25, 2021 02:55 pm
Equality Issues The Rock and Jodie: Celebrities and Showers Just last Friday, in What Else?, I commented on the trend in celebrity shower talk and all these famous people talking about bathing or not bathing their children and/or themselves: Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher, Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard, and also Jake Gyllenhaal. They’re the anti-shower demo. By Lainey • Aug 09, 2021 11:47 am
Celebrity Real Estate Mila and Ashton Bring Back the Humblebrag Around 2014-15, you could not scroll Twitter without finding examples of the humblebrag, a term coined by the late comedian Harris Whittles. A classic example is the guy who tweeted that he’s only ever showered in one of his five bathrooms. A newer example is this new Architectural Digest By Maria • May 19, 2021 11:00 am
LifestyleArticle Carpets & Candids: Mila’s sequin heart I’ve been thinking about Mila Kunis’s sweater for three days. That’s the sign of a good sweater. For starters, it’s a good green. Not a green that screams “Christmas!” and not a true forest and definitely not lime or mint but it does work really, really By Lainey • Dec 19, 2018 04:10 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Mila Kunis and Kate McKinnon’s buddy comedy The Spy Who Dumped Me is being marketed as an action-comedy but it isn’t really that. There is action and there is comedy, but describing it as an action-comedy is like calling Planes, Trains and Automobiles a travelogue. The heart of The Spy Who Dumped Me is the friendship By Sarah • Aug 03, 2018 11:05 am
LifestyleArticle Carpets & Candids: Mila’s pinstriped jumpsuit Is this a jumpsuit? It may be a two-piece. Whatever it is, it’s great on her. And a relief because I have not at all been into anything she’s worn so far on The Spy Who Dumped Me press tour. Boring, boring, boring gowns. This pinstriped situation though… By Lainey • Jul 31, 2018 04:28 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Mila Kunis and Kate McKinnon are bad spies Mila Kunis and Kate McKinnon went on Ellen to premiere the first trailer for their upcoming comedy, The Spy Who Dumped Me, and holy crap does this movie look good. Comedy trailers are tricky—the trailer could be all the funny bits and then the movie itself disappoints—but this By Sarah • Mar 22, 2018 03:25 pm
Ashton Kutcher Ashton and Mila’s date night Every year at around this time, The Social does a year-end gossip special. I am knee-deep in recap lists and conversations about who hooked up, who broke up and who made the most headlines in 2017. Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis did not hook up or break up in 2017.

LifestyleArticle Carpets & Candids: Mila’s red boots Red boots like this, to me, always feel costumey. Maybe because it’s Halloween. Maybe because there are so many superhero movies. But any goodwill I’ve ever had – probably not much – for an over-the-knee red boot is now gone. That said, the red boot can obviously be styled so By Lainey • Oct 31, 2017 04:49 pm
Ashton Kutcher Ashton & Mila’s first kiss I don’t know what Ashton Kutcher is currently promoting. The Ranch? Maybe The Ranch. Doesn’t matter. The point is he’s been doing some press. And Howard Stern was part of the press tour. You know what happens when you agree to do Howard Stern. When a celebrity By Lainey • Jun 22, 2017 03:26 pm
Celebrity Real Estate Mila’s Home Reno Project Have you ever fallen into a Houzz hole? It’s such a fascinating concept because before visual-based social media, like Pinterest and Instagram, homes were mostly private. Unless your home made it into a design magazine, no one besides the people closest to you – friends and family – would see the By Maria • Apr 26, 2017 10:41 am
