‘It’ girl label isn’t her style, Mila Kunis


There are two kinds of beautiful women in Los Angeles, Mila Kunis says: the kind who can talk their way out of parking tickets and her kind.

“I don’t dress up every single day,” she said. “In fact, I rarely walk around looking like the Mila Kunis you see in a magazine or in a movie.”

“I think there are certain actresses who exude a certain amount of sexuality or whatever it may be that men just completely fumble over,” said Kunis, 27. “I don’t feel like I’m that person.”

Hollywood thinks she is, and that’s why Kunis, after receiving critical raves for her performance in Black Swan, is starring opposite Justin Timberlake in one of the sexiest comedies of the summer season.

Opening nationwide on Friday, Friends With Benefits – which also stars Patricia Clarkson, Jenna Elfman, Woody Harrelson and Andy Samberg – casts her as Jamie. She’s a woman who has soured on love and would rather skip the whole thing … except for sex, which she misses. Instead of hunting for true love, she and her similarly disillusioned friend Dylan (Timberlake) decide to simply add sex to their friendship.

Of course, that only sounds like a good idea, and soon their emotions get kicked into overdrive.

In a separate interview, Timberlake has said, “The whole friend-with-benefits idea might seem like a sound one, until you’re actually in one of those complex relationships.” Kunis agrees.

“Justin is absolutely right,” she said. “There will always be one party who gets a little bit more serious about the other person, and then the whole thing just hits the wall.”

In Black Swan, she played Lily, the newest dancer in a New York ballet company. The company’s star ballerina (Natalie Portman) feels threatened by her, seeing the younger woman as a rival and even her eventual replacement. The rivalry gets toxic and keeps getting more so, with tragic results.

Being cast as a dancer came as a surprise to Kunis, who had no relevant dance background.

“I don’t know how or why I got hired for the film,” she said. “I never even really asked. I guess I didn’t want the director to second-guess himself. I just went with it and said, ‘All right, if you trust me, I’m game.'”

Born Milena Markovna Kunis in Chernivtsi, Ukraine, she was 7 when her family – including her mother, a physics teacher, and her father, a mechanical engineer, as well as her brother, who is now a biochemist – moved to Los Angeles.

Two years later, her father enrolled her in a youth acting class. An agent spotted her and helped her land a role in Make a Wish, Molly (1995).

At 14 she auditioned for the role of Jackie Burkhart on That ’70s Show. Told that only actors 18 or older could audition, Kunis said that she would be 18 on her birthday.

“I just never mentioned it was a future birthday,” she said.

She was cast, and ended up with a lifetime of memories from the show, which ran from 1998 to 2006.

Kunis has also provided the voice for Meg Griffin on the animated series Family Guy.

“Acting was never something my parents wanted me to do,” she said, “so it wasn’t something they pushed me to do. I was only allowed to keep doing it if I got straight A’s in school and stayed in school.”

As a result, Kunis said, she never had time to act up as a teenager.

“Acting made me more responsible,” she said. “I never did stupid things, because I always knew that there was something else I had to do that was more important.”
