Mila Kunishas notes forReese WitherspoonandAshton Kutcherabout their recent appearances while promoting their new romantic comedy,Your Place or Mine.
“She goes, ‘You guys look so awkward on the red carpet together,'” Witherspoon, 46, toldHoda KotbandJenna Bush Hageron Monday’sTodayshow, adding that Kunis, 39, said so via an email to her and her husband the night before.
With Witherspoon a petite 5-foot-1 and Kutcher, who turns 45 on Tuesday, checking in at well over six feet, the leads have been having fun over the past week at various events while publicizing the Netflix film — even if they don’t exactly see eye to eye.
At a photo call for the movie last week at the Four Seasons Hotel in Los Angeles, Kutcher goofily crouched down to Witherspoon’s vantage point, while in other red carpet snaps, the duo have displayed body language that plays up their differences in height.

“It’s just fun ‘cause when you know a girlfriend so much, it was just fun to get to know her significant other ‘cause I’ve loved her for so long,” Witherspoon said onToday.
Giving constructive criticism is seemingly a Kunis trademark.
In a recent cover interview withEsquire, Kutcher recalled how Kunis — whom he famously costarred with onThat ’70s Showand eventually married — told him " ‘Youwere an a——,’ after they started dating, referencing how he acted following his split fromDemi Moore.
" ‘Was I?’ " the actor recalled asking Kunis.
" ‘Yeah, you were an a—— for a good two years,’ " she said at the time, according to Kutcher.

Now, the actor couldn’t be more grateful for Kunis, whom he said “is so much cooler than” him.
“The thing about Milathat made our relationship acceleratewas that I had always admired her,” Kutcher said. “Her talents, her skills, her gifts. But I knew that she didn’t need me. And she knew that I didn’t need her.”
