The 'That '70s Show' star explained how he was trying to avoid affair rumors by not putting his arm around his 'Your Place Or Mine' co-star.

Awkward photos of Ashton Kutcher and Reese Witherspoon on the red carpet went viral earlier this week.

Alas Kutcher finally revealed to the world why the duo appeared so uncomfortable.


Kutcher and Witherspoon recently attended the premiere of their new Netflix romantic comedy Your Place or Mine.

But their presence on the red carpet was anything but romantic.

People called out Kutcher and Witherspoon for not even making bodily contact. Kutcher remained standing with his hands in his pockets for most of their red carpet presence.

But wonder no more, because Kutcher set the record straight on the Chicks in the Office podcast.

"Here's the thing: If I put my arm around her and was, like, all friendly with her, I'd be having an affair with her."

Kutcher has been married to his That 70s Show co-star Mila Kunis since 2015, dating since 2012.

He explained his strategy:

"If I stand next to her and I put my hands in my pockets, so there's no chance that, like, that could be the rumor, the rumor is we don't like each other."

The lesser of two evils, we guess?

Kutcher shared even his wife called out their optically unpleasant appearance by texting the two, "Guys, you gotta act like you like each other."

Listeners of the podcast contributed their thoughts.

Many claimed Kutcher was being a gentleman and a dedicated husband.



Of course, some claimed it's possible to still appear friendly in a nonromantic way.

I mean, no one was asking for a Jessica Chastain and Oscar Isaac moment.

And then some joked *record scratch*... wait a minute...


Well, Kutcher definitely achieved his goal of appearing unromantic.

Your Place or Mine begins streaming on Netflix tomorrow.

Hopefully, the chemistry is more evident in the film.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
