    It’s funny how they’re getting crucified but kurtwood Smith and Debra jo Rupp are getting away with it cause they kept their mouths shut and haven’t responded to the controversy.

      Yep, silence is usually the way to go.

      Plus if you’re gonna do an apology, don’t do it looking like you just woke out of bed and are being forced to say these things. Everything about that apology was wrong on every level lol. So insincere.

      I’ve never heard those names in my life. Probably part of the reason.

      Edit: I just asked my partner if she had ever heard those names and she said they were the other cast members of That 70’s Show, so I probably know who they are but never their names.

      It reminds me a bit of the whole Eva Green controversy, where it was revealed she called other people peasants.

      She’s a star, she knows she’s a star, she’s not going to pretend she’s not a star. Haughty, imperious, out of touch. Weirdly, my respect for her grew after that whole thing.

      Nothing worse than a star who pretends to be humble or contrite.

      Ashton and Mila would have been far better saying nothing or only commenting through their representation like the A-listers they are.

        A-listers they are

        Or were. Kutcher hasn’t had a decent movie… Well ever. I feel worse for Kunis who was a legitimate star until recently but has kinda gone into the shit here by association.

            I mean I agree she shouldn’t have written the letter and that neither of them should’ve, but it’s not as if they actually raped the women. So it’s all by association.

            Edit: and she didn’t even make the pervy groomer comments during the trucker hat era
