Through her friendship with Culkin, Kunis became good friends with Michael Jackson and his family. In 2009, the couple attended the late singer's private funeral.

Mila is from a Jewish family; her grandparents were Holocaust survivors, and other family members died during WWII; she had to hide her Jewish faith as a youngster in Ukraine because it was not permitted in the Soviet Union. Her parents, she claims, encouraged her to be aware of and proud of her religion, even if she couldn't publicly show it in their country.
"When I was in school you would still see anti-Semitic signs," Mila said. "One of my friends who grew up in Russia was in second grade. She came home one day crying. Her mother asked why and she said on the back of her seat there was a swastika. This is a country that obviously does not want you.”

3. She was born in Ukraine

Mila Kunis was born in Ukraine and lived there until she was seven years old, while spending the majority of her life in the United States. Mila has expressed her gratitude for her parents' efforts to provide a better life for her, even if it was difficult for her to adjust to a new culture at first.
"Ultimately, I adjusted fairly quickly and fairly well,” she said. “But it must have been hard because I blocked out the second grade completely. I have no recollection of it. I always talk to my mom and my grandma about it. It was because I cried every day."

4. Mila Kunis got her first job when she was 9

Mila had her big break on That '70s Show, but she had a long career before that. Her first audition, when she was nine years old, was for a Barbie commercial, which she obtained owing to her manager. Her parents mentioned only one condition.
"I ended up getting the first thing I went out for, which was a Barbie commercial. All my parents said was, 'you can do whatever you want to do as long as you get A’s and stay in school.'"

5. Her eyes have two different colors

The actress has confessed she’s a big fan of the Star Trek franchise. “I respect Star Wars, I’m a bit of a Sci-Fi nerd but, geared towards one or the other, I’d choose Star Trek.” Do you think she watched the newest reboot?
She was essential in her career, Mila said, because since her parents didn't have the money or the time to help her with auditions, it was her manager that took care of her. By the time she was nine, Mila was already working professionally.

7. She was in Baywatch

Mila landed a role as a supporting character in the TV series Baywatch when she was eleven years old. Her first appearance on the show was in an episode named Aftershock in 1994. She portrayed Annie, a schoolgirl who went on a field trip to the seaside with her class. She did so well that the following year they contacted her again, and she returned to portray Bonnie, a blind girl who gets lost in the forest close to the shore.

Mila had to get a little creative when she auditioned for That '70s Show. She was the cast's youngest member, although she didn't reveal how old she was. The audition regulations required that the actors be at least eighteen years old, and Mila was only fourteen, so when asked about her age, she told a tiny lie.
"I told them I was going to be 18. But I didn't tell them when I was going to be 18!" she explained. The producers found out soon enough, but Mila had already bought them with her talent, so she got the part.

9. She worked a lot to be in Black Swan

Mila starred in Black Swan with Natalie Portman, and it was the role that gave her the status of movie star. She'd been in other Movies before, but they hadn't been as successful. So, needless to say, the project meant a lot to her. Mila loved the script and she sacrificed a lot to make a great performance. She had no experience dancing, so she trained every day for four months. She lost a lot of weight and even dislocated a shoulder and tore a ligament, but she said it was all worth it.

10. Her first kiss with Ashton Kutcher on the show

As readers probably know, Mila Kunis married her screen boyfriend, Ashton Kutcher, and the two of them have two children. They were together on the show for a long time, but at first, it was very uncomfortable for Ashton to play scenes with her. He was 19 at the time, and Mila was just 14.
"It was really weird. I was like, 'Isn't this illegal?'" Ashton said about it. "It was really awkward. She was 14! She was like my little sister."

11. She started a production company

Mila and Ashton both had serious relationships before marrying, and they were nothing but friends for years. They ran into one other at the Golden Globes, and Mila remembered the precise moment she began to view him differently.
"I was looking around, and there was a really beautiful man from the back. I was literally like, ‘Oh, he's kinda hot.' And then he turned around, and I was like, ‘Oh, my God, it's Kutch.' I thought it was the weirdest thing that I was checking this guy out, and it was someone that I had known forever."
Ashton invited her to a party that night, and everyone knows the rest.
