Natalie Portman made admission about 'making out' with Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis before they got married
Natalie Portman made a surprising admission after she starred in titles with both Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis before they got married.
The 43-year-old is known for her numerous roles in films such as V for Vendetta, Brothers and The Other Boleyn Girl among others, and while she also boasts an Academy award, she also boasts an even rarer feat.
She's kissed two huge Hollywood actors, years before they tied the knot and started a family together. Quite the résumé for an actor, or anyone really.

Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis are one of the rare success stories in Hollywood (fingers crossed), having met at the back-end of the 90s on Fox sitcom That 70s Show as part of the main cast, maintaining their friendship for years afterward.
Kutcher married actress Demi Moore in 2005, splitting up six years later, while Kunis held a relationship with former child star Macauley Culkin for nine years, announcing their split in 2011 as well.
However, the pair reconnected a year later and started dating, making it official in 2015 and going on to have two children while still being together as of 2024.
But back in 2011, the two starred in comedy movies tackling the same subject - friends with benefits.
Kutcher and Portman starred in No Strings Attached, while Kunis starred opposite Justin Timberlake in Friends with Benefits - but those aren't all the connections between these actors, as in 2010, Portman starred in Black Swan with Kunis as well.
Not only that, but Portman (obviously) shared some heated moments with Kutcher in their film, while also carrying out a particularly steamy scene with his future wife in their 2010 ballet thriller.
The pair remain good friends, as Portman joked with Kutcher back in 2022 during a Peloton promo shoot that they made the same film around the same time, and that the three were basically all kissing due to what the roles required of them.
Kutcher said: "Wait, it’s also weird because my wife was shooting basically the same movie called Friends with Benefits."
Portman pointed out: "And Mila and I had just shot Black Swan together right before. So we were all making out with each other."
But it turns out that she went one step further, as the actress has also revealed which of the two was the better kisser, during an episode of talk show Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen, in 2018.
The host spoke about how she worked closely with both actors, to which she said with a smile: "I kissed them both."
But when asked who was better with their lips, she revealed: "Mila! I mean, obviously!"
Whatever you think of the scene between the superstar actresses, the film's critical success resulted in Portman winning the Best Actress Award at the Oscars that year.
Despite being in a number of steamy scenes though, Kunis has refused to do any nude scenes, to the point where a butt double was hired for her scene with Timberlake in Friends With Benefits.
Kunis also previously spoke up for gender equality in Hollywood in an open letter in 2016, even revealing that a director said her career would fail if she didn't take her clothes off for promotional material for an unnamed film.
She defied him on all counts, standing her ground and going on to have an incredibly successful career.
