​Ashton Kutcher Says He ‘Stands With’ Wife Mila Kunis’ Native Ukraine Amidst Russian Attacks - HollywoodLife

The ‘That ’70s Show’ star showed support to his wife’s home country, where she lived until she was seven-years-old.

Ashton Kutcher, 44, was one of many stars who showed their support for Ukraine in wake of Russia’s attacks on its neighboring country. The actor tweeted his support late on Thursday February 24. Besides sympathizing with the people of Ukraine during this tumultuous time, the message comes from a little closer to home for Ashton, as his wife Mila Kunis, 38, lived in the European country when she was a child. Ashton’s tweet simply said, “I stand with Ukraine.”

Mila grew up in Chernivtsi, Ukraine, when it was still a part of the Soviet Union (which later became Russia). Her parents were well off, but didn’t think that Ukraine or Russia were going to be the best place for opportunity for the Black Swan star and her brother. “My parents both had amazing jobs, and I was very lucky. We were not poor when we lived in Russia, whereas most people were very unfortunate. My parents thought that my brother and I would have no future there, though, so we moved to the United States,” she told The Telegraph in a 2011 interview.

In the interview, Mila added, “My parents had given up good jobs and degrees, which were not transferable. We arrived in New York on a Wednesday and by Friday morning my brother and I were at school in LA.” The actress does not have social media and has not publicly spoken about the Russian attacks yet.

Ashton was only one of many stars to show support for Ukraine in the midst of the Russian attacks. Dancing With The Stars pro Maksim Chmerkovskiy took to his Instagram and revealed to fans that he’s currently in Ukraine amid the attacks. “WAR is NEVER an answer,” he wrote in the caption for an emotional video, where he gave some insight into what was going on in the country. His wife Peta Murgatroyd also asked fans to keep her husband and his home country in their prayers. Miley Cyrus and more celebrities have also taken to social media to voice support for Ukraine amidst these tragic attacks.

Daisy Edgar-Jones in ‘Where the Crawdads Sing’: Film Review - Hollywood Reporter

Image
Where the Crawdads Sing is the kind of tedious moral fantasy that fuels America’s misguided idealism. It’s an attempt at a complex tale about rejection, difference and survival. But the film, like the novel it’s based on, skirts the issues — of race, gender and class — that would texture its narrative and strengthen its broad thesis, resulting in a story that says more about how whiteness operates in a society allergic to interdependence than it does about how communities fail young people. Directed by Olivia Newman ( First Match ), the film adaptation of Delia Owens’ popular and controversial novel of the same name tells the remarkable tale of a shy, reclusive girl raised in the marshes of North Carolina who finds herself embroiled in a grisly police investigation. Her name is Kya ( Daisy Edgar-Jones of Normal People , Fresh and Under the Banner of Heaven ), but to those in the neighboring town, whose residents abhor her, she is known simply as “Marsh Girl.” The account of her...
