Milena Markovna Kunis


Mila Kunis was born in the Ukraine, came to America as a toddler, and learned English watching tv, particularly The Price is Right!
During her elementary school years, she was a child model doing toy and clothing ads and tv commercials.
When she was 14, Mila auditioned for, and won, the role of Jackie Burkhart on That 70's Show even though all auditioners were required to be 18 or older! Now THAT'S talent!
And, she's been named Esquire's "Sexiest Woman Alive" for 2012!
