Ashton Kutcher's comments on underage Hilary Duff and Olsen twins are creeping people out
Ashton Kutcher's toes are no doubt curling after a pretty iffy comment he made about Hilary Duff recently started doing the internet rounds
Ashton Kutcher's toes are no doubt curling after a pretty iffy comment he made about Hilary Duff circa 2003 recently started doing the internet rounds.
Kutcher made the remark back in his Punk'd days - for any Gen Zers reading this, that probably means diddly squat to you, so let us get you up to speed.
Many moons ago, Kutcher hosted a popular MTV show called Punk'd. The premise? The star would basically play practical jokes on famous people for our viewing pleasure.
Check out the clip below:

When Duff was just 15 (yikes), she appeared on the show and was made to think the car she was learning to drive in had been stolen.
Speaking in a confessional, Kutcher said of Duff: “Hilary Duff. I huff, and I puff and I blow the Duff down!
"Hilary Duff is in Lizzie McGuire, she also has an album out. She's going to be in a movie called Cheaper by the Dozen... And she's one of the girls that we're all waiting for to turn 18. Along with the Olsen twins."
Unfortunately for Kutcher, the exact snippet of footage in which he made the dodgy remark was recently re-shared online by TikToker @jaseyyann, and needless to say, people had some thoughts.
One person commented beneath @jaseyyann’s post: “She was FIFTEEN,” while another echoed: “Yikes.”
Other comments included: “Everyone used to say that back in the day but no one meant they want them now, just acknowledging they were pretty and.. ok yeah it sounds bad,” Agreed” and “Also the fact he was in Cheaper By The Dozen with her.”
UNILAD has approached Kutcher’s representatives for comment.
This comes after Kutcher opened up about his battle with a rare disease, candidly speaking about being afflicted by a rare form of vasculitis on Paramount+ docuseries The Checkup with Dr. David Agus.
"I woke up one day and was having vision issues [and] could hardly see," he said.
"[It] knocked out my hearing, which threw off my equilibrium, my balance and I couldn't walk. I had vasculitis, that you're very well aware of.
"There's a standard you become accustomed to in your life, like, being able to see clearly. And then suddenly, you can't see."
Vasculitis is an inflammation of the blood vessels, occurring when the immune system attacks healthy blood vessels.
Fortunately, Kutcher has reclaimed the health that he once had.
Vasculitis is an inflammation of the blood vessels, occurring when the immune system attacks healthy blood vessels.
Often the cause is unknown, but it can range from a minor problem that just affects the skin, to a more serious illness that causes problems with organs like the heart or kidneys, according to the NHS.
