Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis’ Apology for Danny Masterson Letters Is a Bizarre Document of Contemporary Fame
11.09.2023 - 17:09 / variety.com
Daniel D'Addario Chief TV Critic Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis have found themselves in a position that those who’ve followed their Teflon trajectory might never have expected: Apologizing. The pair’s letters to Judge Charlaine Olmedo, prior to her sentencing of Kutcher and Kunis’ “That ‘70s Show” costar Danny Masterson to thirty years to life on two counts of rape, went viral after they were obtained by independent journalist Tony Ortega. And both the letters and apology video share an uncomfortable tone of supreme self-assurance.
“We support victims. We have done this historically through our work and will continue to do so in the future,” Kunis declares in a tone of grave certitude. While the pair’s presenting mitigating information about a friend in order to potentially reduce his sentence is far from an unprecedented step in the legal system, it does not evoke the sense of “supporting victims.” Similarly, Kunis’ declaration that “the letters were not written to question the legitimacy or the validity of the jury’s ruling” rubs up uncomfortably against both letters’ repeatedly and aggressively pressing the point of Masterson’s opposition to drug use.
Kutcher and Kunis seemed, in writing, to walk right up to saying that the claim that Masterson had used date-rape drugs in the two cases for which he was convicted was impossible. Mitigation is one thing; re-litigation is quite another. The video itself is a bizarre document of contemporary fame; both stars are in just-woke-up-level wrinkled t-shirts, with Kutcher unshaven and bedraggled.
