BREAKING NEWS. This just in: James Franco knows he’s not perfect. Shocking, we know.

Mila Kunis Definitely Not Doing ‘50 Shades of Grey’ Movie

The “Fifty Shades of Grey” rumor mill just won’t stop churning. Those books are becoming as obnoxious as the monster that spawned them, namely, “Twilight.” There have been plenty of actresses rumored to be “in talks” to play Anastasia Steele, the thinly-veiled Bella Swan rip-off who gets talked into joining her master’s sex dungeon. Or something. We’re not very well versed in all things “Fifty Shades of Grey” here at Jspace. Anyway, the list of …More

What’s the best way to inoculate a newbie journalist into the world of professional reporting? Why, sit him down in front of Mila Kunis, of course. British “lad” Chris Stark must have had the surreal-moment-of-his-life this week, when his higher ups at the BBC’s Scott Mills Show decided to set him up in a one-on-one with the “Oz the Great and Powerful” star. On a media tour to promote the film, Kunis seemed relaxed and open to the idea of being interviewed by a guy who was, …More

Kunis and Weisz New Film Ready for Oz-some Opening

Mila Kunis and Rachel Weisz are definitely not in Kansas anymore. But wherever they are, they’re excited to be there. “Oz the Great and Powerful,” Disney’s sort-of prequel to the classic “The Wizard of Oz,” opens March 8. It tells the story of how a magician from Kansas, Oscar Diggs (played by James Franco), fulfills a prophecy (whose, we’re not entirely sure) to become the Wizard of Oz. Weisz plays Evanora, the Wicked Witch of the East, while Kunis is Theodora, the …More

The Simon Wiesenthal Center has penned a letter to Ukrainian Prime Minister Mykola Azarov, decrying the government’s reaction to an anti-Semitic slur used against Jewish actress Mila Kunis.

Ukraine Approves Anti-Semitic Slur Against Mila Kunis

Ukrainian Jewish leaders are biting back at their nation’s recent approval of an anti-Semitic slur. Last month, a member of the far-right Svoboda Party took to Facebook to call Ukrainian-born Mila Kunis a “zhydovka,” the feminine form of “zyhd,” which translates to yid in English. Igor Miroshnichenko wrote on his Facebook page that the Jewish actress, who immigrated to the US as a child, was “not Ukrainian but a Jewess.” The accepted term for a Jewish woman in Ukrainian …More

Mila Kunis was once told she would never work in Hollywood again after she refused to pose for the cover of a magazine.

She tells Esquire, “My career was threatened over me not wanting to do the cover of a magazine by an executive. Oh, that’s not even true. A person higher than an executive. It was like, …More
