O casal favorito dos fãs Ashton Kutcher e Mila Kunis construiu sua casa com tema de celeiro do zero. Aqui está uma olhada em sua residência em Los Angeles, que lembra um antigo celeiro onde eles criam alegremente seus dois filhos.
O casal de Hollywood Ashton Kutcher e sua esposa Mila Kunis certamente sabem como fazer uma casa de fazenda parecer grandiosa. O casal pode ser dono do maior e mais deslumbrante celeiro da história de Hollywood.
O casal, que se casou em 2015, supostamente trabalhou por cinco anos para montar sua casa em Los Angeles, construída no topo de uma propriedade de seis acres. Com a ajuda do arquiteto Howard Backen e da designer de interiores Vicky Charles, o casal construiu sua casa do zero. Aqui está uma olhada na magnífica propriedade da dupla poderosa.
Desde que se mudaram para sua casa estilo celeiro, o casal de primeira linha compartilhou muitos detalhes interessantes sobre o prédio. Kunis revelou uma vez que ela e o marido queriam uma casa, não uma propriedade.
Falando sobre o que ela e Kutcher imaginaram antes de montar o prédio, ela disse :
“Queríamos que a casa parecesse um celeiro antigo, algo que estava aqui há décadas, que foi então convertido em uma casa. Mas também precisava parecer moderno e relevante.”
Antes do projeto de Los Angeles começar, Kunis e seu marido astro de cinema tinham painéis individuais no Pinterest para ajudar a marcar o que eles queriam ver em sua casa. No final, seus gostos acabaram sendo quase os mesmos.
Eles contrataram o arquiteto Backen para construir sua casa de fazenda perfeita depois de descobrir que ele havia projetado a maioria das casas que eles marcaram. Enquanto isso, as estrelas da lista A são gratas por seus interesses compartilhados, como Kunis uma vez apontou :
“Construir uma casa do zero não é pouca coisa. Isso ou nos faria ou nos destruiria.”
No entanto, Kunis e o ator de “No Strings Attached” não construíram uma casa apenas para satisfazer seu interesse. Eles queriam fazer algo adequado para seus filhos.
Kunis estava grávida do primeiro filho do casal quando a construção começou e, apesar dos detalhes luxuosos, a casa foi projetada para ser totalmente familiar.
Para Kunis e Kutcher, sua casa era um lugar de tranquilidade. Kutcher falou sobre o edifício de Los Angeles e expressou : “Se o mundo ao seu redor não estiver em ordem, é difícil colocar seu cérebro em ordem. Quando estamos em nossa casa, o mundo simplesmente faz sentido.”
Construir uma casa tão amigável e acolhedora quanto sua casa estilo celeiro em Los Angeles era essencial para o casal.
A estrutura ostenta mesas impecavelmente feitas sob medida e assentos luxuosos e superconfortáveis. O designer de interiores, Charles of Charles & Co., também criou uma imagem de casa impressionante.
Charles acrescentou que também há elementos de sua antiga residência na arquitetura refinada da nova casa. Falando sobre a casa durante uma entrevista virtual no “Live With Kelly and Ryan”, Kunis falou sobre seu antigo lustre pendurado no centro da sala onde ela estava sentada no clipe do YouTube.

Mila Kunis disse que não gostava do lustre em sua antiga casa, mas ela e Ashton Kutcher tornaram a obra de arte menos desagradável ao projetar sua nova casa em torno dele.
Embora o casal tenha compartilhado um pouco de sua casa, eles são muito reservados sobre sua vida familiar e nunca postam fotos de seus dois filhos online.
No entanto, eles frequentemente levam sua filha, Wyatt Isabelle, e seu filho, Dimitri Portwood , para eventos públicos. Ambos os pais adoram mimar seus filhos e discutir as alegrias da paternidade em suas entrevistas.
Ao comparecer à estreia de seu filme da Netflix, “Your Place or Mine”, Kutcher disse que seus filhos são sua maior prioridade. “Para mim, o papel número 1 que desempenharei é ser pai. É o papel mais importante da minha vida”, ele admitiu uma vez .
O ator de “Ted” revelou que aceitou de bom grado uma redução no salário para realocar a produção para mais perto de sua casa e família.

Seja servindo como líder do grupo de escoteiros de seu filho ou contribuindo para inspirar as crianças com suas metas de condicionamento físico, o ator reconhece o impacto que suas decisões e as de Kunis têm no futuro deles.

Além disso, ele expressou: “Não tenho arrogância sobre a noção de que tenho qualquer controle sobre o que eles escolhem fazer. Só espero poder torná-los realmente bons tomadores de decisão.”

Kunis e Kutcher se envolvem em discussões significativas com seus filhos sobre sua herança. Em uma entrevista em março de 2022, a atriz de “Friends with Benefits” mencionou o que ela e Kutcher transmitiram aos filhos:
“Parecia que da noite para o dia nós dois nos voltamos para nossos filhos e pensamos: ‘Você é meio ucraniano, meio americano’. Isso virou uma coisa instantaneamente, e eles disseram: ‘É, entendi, mãe’.”

Ela disse : “Mas, no fim das contas, é incrivelmente importante saber de onde você veio. É lindo, é incrível ter múltiplas culturas. É uma coisa linda de se ter por aí. Não deveríamos ser todos iguais. Não deveríamos pensar todos iguais. Essa não é a importância da comunidade e do crescimento.”
Kutcher conheceu a mulher que mais tarde se tornaria sua esposa e mãe de seus dois filhos no set de “That 70s Show”, que foi ao ar de 1998 a 2006. O casal estrelou como os amantes na tela Jackie e Michael.

Enquanto interpretavam Jackie e Michael, os dois se beijaram , e Kutcher revelou mais tarde em uma entrevista que foi a primeira vez que Kunis beijou um homem. Quando Kutcher deixou o show, ele continuou em contato com Kunis, que admitiu ter uma queda pelo ator durante uma entrevista em 2001.
Falando sobre o relacionamento dela e do ator em 2016, a atriz disse que eles se procuravam constantemente, mas era só isso.

De fato, Kunis e Kutcher são pais dedicados, donos de uma linda casa, que deram ao público uma visão de sua vida cotidiana.
I Booked a $2,000 Rental for a Group Trip, but No One Paid Me Back Their Share of the Cost – They Didn’t Get Away with It
Excitement for their weekend getaway turned into frustration as Sarah’s friends dodged paying their share of the $2,000 cabin rental. Little did they know, she had a plan to make sure they didn’t get away with it.
Every year, my friends and I plan a girls’ weekend getaway. We take turns organizing, and this year, it was miy turn! I was excited to find the perfect spot: a cozy cabin nestled right on a sparkling lake.
We all squealed with delight when I sent the pictures.

The place looked like it came straight out of a magazine. It had a cozy cabin with a fireplace, stunning views of the lake, and even a hot tub.
The total cost was $2,000 for the three-night stay, which amounted to a very reasonable $250 each for our group of eight.
“Since I went ahead and booked the cabin, I covered the upfront cost,” I told my friends. “But to make things easier, I’d appreciate it if you could all pay me back before the trip. Does that work for everyone?”

“Sounds perfect, Sarah!” Mary chimed in first. “Thanks for taking care of that.”
“Absolutely, no problem at all,” echoed Ella.
“Great, that works for me too!” chimed in Brittany.
One by one, everyone around the table agreed.
“Yep, sounds good”
“No worries, I can do that.”
The confirmations rolled in. It seemed everyone was happy to handle their share and promised to pay me before the trip started.
Easy peasy, right?
Wrong.

As the trip approached, the easy peasy turned into oh-so-frustrating.
First, it was Mary. “Hey Sarah,” she chirped, “my car needs new brakes, so I might be a little late on my payment. I’ll get it to you next week.”
A week later, it was Brittany’s turn. “Ugh, student loans are killing me this month. Can I hold off until next payday?”
“I just need to wait until my next paycheck,” Melissa told me.
Weeks went by, and as I reminded them to pay back, they came up with more excuses.

Each excuse was new and none of them overlapped. It seemed like they were together in this.
Then came the radio silence. Nada. No texts, no calls, nothing from Ella, Dana, or even reliable old Lisa.
By the week before the trip, I was out $2,000 and feeling completely used.
The same people I called my “friends” had indirectly refused to pay me back. The people I trusted the most had suddenly decided to team up against me.
Why were they doing this?

Had I done something wrong? Or was this an attempt to see how I would react to such a tricky situation? I didn’t know what it was, but it was making me super angry.
I knew I had to do something drastic, something that would make them understand I wasn’t a doormat.
As a result, I decided it was time to teach them a lesson they wouldn’t forget. Now, I’m not one for confrontation, but this was ridiculous.
The night before the trip, I took a deep breath and picked up my phone to execute the first step of my plan.

I sent a group text, bubbling over with fake excitement. “Can’t wait to see you all at the cabin tomorrow! Gonna be the perfect weekend getaway!”
Little did they know, I had a devious plan brewing
The next morning, I woke up extra early and hopped out of my bed. Throwing on clothes, I raced out the door, eager to transform the cabin into our own little haven.
At the grocery store, I pushed my cart down the aisles.

A giddy smile appeared on my face as I filled it with fresh fruit, cheese, and enough snacks to satisfy an army. I even got the best selection of wine and juices. I wanted to make sure my friends were well-fed and taken care of.
After paying for the snacks and drinks, I got back into my car and drove towards the cabin. It was even more beautiful in person, the sunlight glinting off the lake like a million diamonds.
I stocked the fridge with everything that I had bought.

I even prepped a bonfire for that night, complete with cozy blankets and marshmallows.
The place looked perfect. I knew my friends would have the best time of their lives here.
But here’s the catch: I took the keys and the garage door opener with me when I left for an “errand.”
Before locking the cabin, I texted all my friends that I was out for an urgent task and would make it there by the time they arrived. They trusted me, just like I did when I asked them to pay me back.
However, they broke my trust, and so did I.

If they wanted to have a good time in the cabin, they had to follow my rules. They had to earn their weekend getaway.
I wasn’t going to let them have a good time when all they did was ignore my texts and calls.
By lunchtime, my phone started blowing up. Frantic texts and calls poured in from my friends.
“Hey, Sarah, we’re here at the cabin, but the doors are locked!” Ella said.
“Did you forget something?” Mary asked.

I kept my cool, replying with a simple, “Oh no! So sorry, guys. Must have left the keys at home. But hey, the good news is I’m on my way back now!”
Was I on my way back? No!
I was sitting at a nearby cafe, sipping on my favorite iced latte. I enjoyed reading their texts as they reached the cabin one after the other.
After I sent the last message, the frequency of their texts dropped. They felt relieved I was on my way back, but the truth was entirely different.

As their short-lived relief faded, they started calling and texting me again. This time, their messages were way more desperate. Some of my friends were angry, while others were struggling not to lose their temper.
“How can you be so forgetful, Sarah?” Lisa asked.
“I can’t believe you’re making us all wait like this!” Dana said. “I thought this was supposed to be a fun trip.”
Finally, I decided to drop the bomb.

I sent a calm message: “Look, I’ll be happy to come back and let you all in, but only once everyone has sent over their share of the rental cost.”
Silence.
Then, a flurry of activity.
Apparently, the prospect of a luxurious weekend getaway suddenly trumped car troubles, student loans, and all the other excuses they’d cooked up.
My phone buzzed with Venmo, PayPal, and Zelle notifications as payments started rolling in.
Within an hour, every penny was accounted for.

“You guys could have done this before!” I said to myself before grabbing the keys and heading back to the cabin.
Their eyes lit up as soon as they saw my car. Some walked toward me, others to the door.
“Sarah! Finally!” Mary exclaimed, relief evident in her voice.
I stepped out of the car, keys in hand. “Oh, so now I’m ‘finally’ here? How convenient,” I said, my voice dripping with sarcasm.
The group fell silent, guilt spreading across their faces.

“Look, I’m sorry,” Brittany started. “But you have to understand, I really—”
I cut her off. “No, Brittany. You all made excuses. I trusted you, and you took advantage of that.”
Lisa stepped forward, trying to mediate. “Sarah, we messed up. But can’t we just put this behind us and enjoy the weekend?”
“Enjoy the weekend?” I scoffed. “After you all made me feel like a fool? After I had to practically blackmail you to get my money back?”
“We didn’t mean to hurt you,” Ella said softly. “We just didn’t realize—”

“Didn’t realize what? That $2,000 is a lot of money? That friendships are built on trust and respect?”
A tense silence fell over the group. For a moment, I thought confronting them was a bad idea. I thought they’d say they didn’t want to be there anymore.
I stood my ground despite the fear, letting the weight of my words sink in.
Finally, Mary broke the silence. She wrapped me in a giant hug.
“Sarah, I’m so sorry about the car thing. You were totally right to be mad.”
Brittany chimed in, “Yeah, me too. I’m sorry. We’re all sorry.”

They all finally realized what they had done.
I took a deep breath, looking at each of them. “I’m glad you understand now. But remember, respect is a two-way street.”
We may not be planning any luxury cabin getaways anytime soon, but at least we’ll be doing it with a renewed sense of understanding and responsibility.
This whole experience definitely made for a memorable story, even if it wasn’t exactly the relaxing weekend I’d planned.
But hey, sometimes the best lessons come wrapped in a little frustration and a whole lot of determination.
