Danny Masterson accuser Chrissie Carnell Bixler is blasting Ashton Kutcher, 45, once again as she shares resurfaced clips of him talking about an underage Hilary Duff, 35, and his now-wife Mila Kunis, 40.
Bixler is one of three women who have accused former ‘That ’70s Show’ actor Danny Masterson, 47, of rape, from alleged incidents that happened over two decades ago when the show was in its prime.

As we’ve previously reported, Masterson was first arrested in June 2020 and charged with raping three women in separate incidents from 2001 and 2003. His first rape trial began in October 2022; however, it was declared a mistrial in November 2022, after a jury was unable to reach a final verdict on the three counts.
During his retrial, Masterson was later convicted of two out of three counts of rape in May 2023. An unanimous decision could not be made on a third count. Then late last week, he was sentenced to 30 years to life in prison, 15 years per charge. His actress wife Bijou Phillips Masterson, 43, is set to raise their 9-year-old daughter, Fianna Francis Masteron, while he serves his time.
Following the sentencing of Masterson, it was revealed to the public that his co-stars Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis had wrote character letters to the judge presiding over Masterson’s case. In their letters, the Kutchers asked for leniency in support of their longtime friend and former co-worker.

Kutcher wrote, “As a role model, Danny has consistently been an excellent one. I attribute not falling into the typical Hollywood life of drugs directly to Danny. He also set an extraordinary standard around how you treat other people. There was an incident where we were at a pizza parlor and a belligerent man entered who is berating his girlfriend. We had never met or seen these people before, but Danny was the first person to jump to the defense of this girl. It was an incident he didn’t have to get involved in but proactively chose to because the way this man was behaving was not right.”
Kutcher added, “He has always treated people with decency, equality, and generosity. While I’m aware that the judgement has been cast as guilty on two counts of rape by force and the victims have a great desire for justice, I hope that my testament to his character is taken into consideration in sentencing. I do not believe he is an ongoing harm to society and having his daughter raised without a present father would a tertiary injustice in and of itself. Thank you for taking the time to read this.”

Meanwhile, Kutcher’s wife, Mila Kunis, wrote, “Danny has consistently displayed a profound sense of responsibility and care for those around him. He demonstrates grace and empathy in every situation, be it within the entertainment industry or in our personal lives. His steady support and understanding presence make him a reliable source of guidance and comfort for all of us.”
Kunis added, “I wholeheartedly vouch for Danny Masterson’s exceptional character and the tremendous positive influence he has had on me and the people around him. His dedication to leading a drug-free life and the genuine care he extends to others make him an outstanding role model and friend.”

After news of their letters surfacing, the Kutchers posted a video together, apologizing and claiming they support victims of sexual assault. Kutcher explained, “We are aware of the pain that has been caused by the character letters that we wrote on behalf of Danny Masterson.”
Kunis added, “We support victims. We have done this historically through our work and will continue to do so in the future. The letters were not written to question the legitimacy of the judicial system, or the validity of the jury’s ruling.”
Kutcher continued, “They were intended for the judge to read and not to undermine the testimony of the victims or re-traumatize them in any way. We would never want to do that, and we’re sorry if that has taken place.”

On the heels of Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis’ apology video, Danny Masterson accuser Chrissie Carnell Bixler is now blasting Kutcher, for being “just as sick” as Masterson, in resurfaced clips of him talking about an underage Hilary Duff and his now-wife.
In a clip from a 2003 episode of ‘Punk’d,’ Kutcher spoke on a then-15-year-old Hilary Duff and said, “She’s one of the girls that we’re all waiting for to turn 18. Along with the Olsen twins.” Bixler also shared another old clip from ‘The Rosie O’Donnell Show,’ where Ashton Kutcher and and underage Mila Kunis recalled him making a “side bet” with Danny Masterson when she was 14 years old on the show. She said, “Danny goes to him and goes, ‘Dude, I’ll give you $10 if you French kiss her.’”
Another resurfaced clip shows Kunis sitting on Kutcher’s lap as a teenager in a promo for the hit sitcom.
