Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher are amicable exes.

The pair, who announced their plans to divorce in November, reunited at Kabbalah instructor Yehuda Berg's 40th birthday gathering on Thursday at the Intercontinental Hotel in L.A.'s Century City – but contrary to reports, the former couple aren't reuniting.

"They were friendly," an insider tells PEOPLE of the interaction between the duo, who arrived separately. "Ashton got up at one point and grabbed coffee in a paper cup for Demi, and they smiled a few times during the program at each other. They seemed to get along and feel comfortable."

CBS Adds Dramas Starring Jonny Lee Miller and Dennis Quaid

Originally posted 05/17/2012 09:35AM



The upfront event for top-rated CBS typically has the smoothness and confidence of a long-running Broadway musical that makes other productions in the area look like dinner theater.

Wednesday afternoon's event, which included an entertaining rap-opera number by NCIS L.A. star LL Cool J and lyric soprano Danielle de Niese, was no different. CEO Les Moonves, bragging about the network's position of strength, summed up his pitch to advertisers in four syllables.

"Blah," he began, concluding, "blah, blah, blah."

The biggest news was the announcement that Two and a Half Men, having re-secured the services of wily man-child Ashton Kutcher, was being moved to Thursdays and teamed with The Big Bang Theory.

The theory is that this will defeat other networks by creating an impenetrable force field of howling sitcom laughter.

With no sign of his recent companion, Mila Kunis, at his side, Ashton Kutcher made it a boys' night out at Friday's Barnstable Brown Party, Louisville's most elite and swanky Derby Eve celebration – where he also patched up a simmering feud with Miranda Lambert.

Having formerly accused the Two and a Half Men star of making fun of country music when he presented her with the Female Vocalist of the Year award at last month's Academy of Country Music Awards, Lambert posed for a friendly picture with Kutcher at Friday night's soiree, then Tweeted, along with the photo: "here it is y’all. He is sweet and lives country music! For real!:)"

Ashton Kutcher 'Dating' Ad Pulled Amid Complaints of Racism

Originally posted 05/03/2012 08:05AM

Ashton Kutcher's new Popchips commercials were meant to be funny and lighthearted, but one has been swiftly pulled – and an apology issued – following a grim reaction from Indian Americans.

The ad in which Ashton plays "Raj," a Bollywood producer – complete with brownface makeup and a heavy Indian accent – has been removed from the Popchips website and other online channels amid an outcry that it is racist, reports The New York Times.

The most blistering critique came from Anil Dash, the tech entrepreneur. "I can't imagine I have to explain this to anyone in 2012, but if you find yourself putting brown makeup on a white person in 2012 so they can do a bad 'funny' accent in order to sell potato chips, you are on the wrong course," he wrote on his website.

Ashton Kutcher (As Many Characters) Is Looking for Love

Originally posted 05/02/2012 08:00AM



Since splitting from Demi Moore last November, Ashton Kutcher has been no stranger to the dating game – and now he's taking his quest for new love viral.

In a Popchips commercial that spoofs video dating ads, Kutcher, 34, appears as a number of characters looking for romance around the globe, in addition to playing himself.

The eligible bachelors include Darl, a flamboyant Karl Lagerfeld lookalike whose tiny dog keeps kosher; Nigel, a dread-locked British stoner; Raj, a Bollywood producer with a crush on Kim Kardashian; and Swordfish, a laid back, tattooed Southerner.

And though he's recently been linked to his former That '70s Show costar Mila Kunis, Kutcher also throws his own name onto the list of singles.

Described as "Ashton, 34" in his segment at the end of the video, Kutcher deadpans: "Your waiting room is a like a freak show. Are we all in the same category?"

Ashton Kutcher Was Mila Kunis's First Kiss

It was 1998 and a then unknown Mila Kunis didn't quite know what to make of the news that she would have her first real kiss on camera with Ashton Kutcher, a model turned actor whom she'd only just met.

"I was like, 'Oh, he's so cute, it's the Calvin Klein model!' " the actress told PEOPLE in 2001. "Then I was like, 'I have to kiss him?' I was so nervous and uncomfortable. I had the biggest crush on him."

Kunis, who at the time was costarring with Kutcher on That '70s Show, spritzed herself with perfume the producers gave her to help mask her nerves. "I totally perfumed myself and I was like, 'Hey, I feel better about myself,' " she said.

But the way Kutcher remembered the scene, he was the one who was sweating.

Following her weekend getaway with Ashton Kutcher, Mila Kunis has a brief stopover in Las Vegas Tuesday to promote her upcoming film Oz the Great and Powerful at the CinemaCon Festival.

Joined at the festival by costar James Franco, Kunis "looked cute," according to an onlooker, who noted her short skirt and heels. (Kutcher was not present in Sin City, however.)

Later that night, Franco was spotted at Tao Asian Bistro, where he grabbed dinner with three female friends. For the meal, they enjoyed some sea bass, lobster wantons and fried rice with Chinese sausage.
