Mila Kunis
She started acting when she was just 9 years old, when her father heard about an acting class on the radio and decided to enroll Mila in it. There, she met her future agent. Her first gig was in 1995, in which she played a character named Melinda in Make a Wish, Molly (1995).
From there, her career skyrocketed into big-budget films. Although she is mostly known for playing Jackie Burkhart in Aquellos maravillosos 70 (1998), she has shown the world that she can do so much more. Her breakthrough film was Paso de ti (2008), in which she played a free-spirited character named Rachel Jensen.
She has since starred or co-starred in the films El libro de Eli (2010), Cisne negro (2010), Con derecho a roce (2011) and Ted (2012).

Personal Quotes
Blondes definitely do not have more fun. Trust me.
[on her Aquellos maravillosos 70 (1998) character, Jackie Burkhart, switching boyfriends from Michael Kelso to Steven Hyde]: I think her relationship with Steven has taught her to be less selfish.
[Denying reports of marriage] I've been engaged, I think I've already been married, And I'm sure I have a child somewhere. I'm waiting to have something else happen. No, I'm not married. And, no, I'm not engaged. And, no, I do not have a child. No one seems to listen. And next week I'll be engaged again. I think, at one point, they were like "Seen shopping in Beverly Hills for engagement rings." We were in Japan working. What is wrong with these people? Half the time you can say they misconstrued facts. But more often than not, they just make stuff up.
Well, I was born and grew up in Russia. I wasn't allowed to be religious. My whole family was in the Holocaust. My grandparents passed [away] and not many survived. After the Holocaust in Russia, you were not allowed to be religious. So my parents raised me to know I was Jewish. You know who you are inside. You don't need to tell the whole world. You believe what you believe, and that's what's important. And that's how I was raised. My family was like "You are Jewish in your blood." We can celebrate Yom Kippur and Hannukah in Russia--but not by the book. We do it to our own extent because being in Russia... Bar Mitzvahs weren't held. When I was in school over there, up until I was seven, you would still see anti-Semitic signs. One of my friends who grew up in Russia... she was in second grade... and she came home one day crying. Her mother asked why she was crying and she said on the back of her seat there was a swastika. Now this is a country that obviously does not want you. So my parents raised me Jewish as much as they could and they came to America. I love my religion. I think it's a beautiful religion, but I took parts of it that I want for myself. I don't need to go to temple. I will, but I don't need to.
I never dated Wilmer Valderrama. I never dated Danny Masterson. They're like my brothers. That's disgusting. That's wrong.
I started acting when I was nine as a hobby because it was fun and I could get out of school. I didn't ever think that I would have it as a job because I didn't know you could have a job in acting. But now I really love what I do and I can't even imagine doing anything else.
No-strings sex is great in theory but falls short in execution. You can't sustain a friends with benefits relationship for a long time. It's inevitable it will either go one way or the other. I have plenty of males who are my friends... without the benefits. If you're friends with someone, let's just leave it at that. There needs to be nothing more.
I think than an actor is more likely to be forgiven in the public's eye than an actress. There will always be a double standard between males and females, so I think that an actress is more likely to protect her public persona, so to speak, than an actor would be. An actor goes crazy in a hotel room, gets trashed, throws a bench, breaks a window, and he is considered a rock star. An actress does that and she's sent to rehab and is thought to have problems and issues and can't get a job.
I think the second you think that you're funny is when you stop being funny.
[on Oz, un mundo de fantasía (2013)] This is the first film that I've ever done that kids are allowed to see.
You have to laugh at the absurdity of this entire industry and the absurdity of what it is we do. If I didn't, I'd go crazy.
Over the course of Aquellos maravillosos 70 (1998), you can see me go through puberty, and who wants to watch that? No one should have that part of their life on record.
I've always been a big proponent of not working for the sake of working because I don't want to work for the rest of my life; I want to live.
There are two people out there, Star Trek fans and Star Wars fans... I'm a Star Trek fan. I respect Star Wars, I'm a bit of a Sci-Fi nerd but, geared towards one or the other, I'd choose Star Trek. ...............................................................................................
