Mila Kunis Confirms Whether Or Not She Was Underage While Filming That 70s Show

That 70s Show first appeared on our screens in 1998, but there is still one question on every fan’s lips: was Mila Kunis actually underage when she was playing the role of Jackie Burkhart?!

The rumor that the now 39-year-old Luckiest Girl Alive actress was 14 years old when she first auditioned for the role started doing the rounds many years ago, but was never officially cleared up. Until now! Luckily, the answer came straight from the actress’s mouth, as she cleared up the rumors once and for all. And the answer might come as a surprise to some fans, while others may exclaim that they knew all along!

“There’s a rumor going around that I may or may not have lied about my age for That 70s Show. I’d like to make it very clear now: I did lie. Okay? I did,” the Bad Moms actress admitted in a bombshell interview with Vanity Fair, before going on to reveal that the casting team had no idea about her real age until she subtly asked for a ‘studio teacher’ in her contract. Yikes!

“However, by the time I went to what was then, like, producers, network call, you have to sign a contract before you get the job. And in my contract I had to put an asterisk, and be like, ‘Studio teacher.’ And they’re like, ‘What do you mean?’ And I was like, ‘Oh, P.S. I’m 14.'”

However, Mila went on to say that it wasn’t the end of the world, but her casting was a little unconventional at the time, “as it was in the heyday of like, older kids playing younger kids, and I was actually of the age of the character.” By contrast, Wilmer Valderrama and Laura Prepon were 18, Ashton Kutcher and Topher Grace were 20, and Danny Masterson was 22 years old at the start of the show.
