Ashton Kutcher Shuts Down Bizarre Shower Rumors

Ashton Kutcher has recently taken the internet by storm, addressing the peculiar rumors surrounding his and Mila Kunis’ bathing habits. Nearly five years after the initial comments that ignited the debate, Ashton finally sets the record straight.

How the Rumor Took Off

The strange rumor began in July 2021 on Dax Shepard’s Armchair Expert podcast. Mila Kunis shared her experiences growing up in Ukraine, where she often went without consistent hot water, leading her to avoid bathing her newborns daily. Ashton Kutcher chimed in, humorously stating that he washes his armpits and intimate areas daily with a bar of Lever 2000 but doesn’t wash the rest of his body unless he sees dirt. Kunis added that she cleans her face twice a day. This casual conversation spiraled out of control, leading many to conclude that the couple never showers.

Fast forward to this week, and Kutcher spoke to People magazine while promoting his new project, The Beauty. He called the rumors "the craziest thing ever," noting that people even began to question if he smells. "I shower, I hit the gym, I shower again," he chuckled. Co-stars Anthony Ramos and Jeremy Pope supported his claims, with Ramos humorously stating, "I can confirm my boy showers."

Instead of reacting negatively to the absurdity, Kutcher and Kunis embraced it. They humorously created a TikTok video a few weeks later, featuring Kunis preparing a bath for their kids. In the video, Kutcher exaggeratedly lamented about how too much water could destroy their natural body oils, playfully responding to the buzz around them.

Upcoming Movie: The Beauty

Ashton Kutcher is currently starring in the FX series The Beauty, where he plays a tech billionaire involved in a beauty drug with deadly implications. The show premiered on January 21 and is available on Hulu and Disney+. Fresh off dispelling the shower rumors, Kutcher balances family life while showcasing his villainous side alongside Evan Peters and Rebecca Hall, exciting fans with their on-screen chemistry in this thriller.
