MILA KUNIS SAYS SHE ALMOST QUIT ACTING BECAUSE SHE HAS MORE MONEY THAN SHE KNOWS WHAT TO DO WITH!

Mila KunisMILA Kunis has revealed she almost quit acting.

The Black Swan star — who has been working in TV since she was 9 years old — says she considered changing professions after That ’70s Show ended.

“I was like, ‘Alright, this has been a god run, but I’m done’. I wanted to rethink my life for a minute because I didn’t think acting could be a career. This is the worst industry you can put yourself in because there’s no security whatsoever. I mean, none,” she said.

“The whole thing is based so much on opinion and nobody is wrong. That person can think I’m great, that person can think I suck, and they’re both right. I was like, ‘Can I really do this for the rest of my life?’

“What a lot of people don’t realize is that you make more money in TV than you will in film; it’s a very steady salary. An obscene amount of money gets given to you for, like… what? So I was 20, and I looked at my bank account and realized  that I was secure for the rest of my life. I was like, ‘I’m okay. I can go do other things now’.

“I had been happy being poor, so having money made no difference to me. I know people with money say that, but it’s the truth. Of course, it’s a blessing to feel like you have a roof over your head and not having to worry about where your next meal is coming from. But that blessing, I realized, comes at a price.

“I was contemplating whether I wanted to keep doing this or if I wanted to go and explore life. And I realized that acting is the one thing I love to do.

“I asked myself, ‘What else could I do that would make me happy? What else could I do where I wake up in the morning and think, ‘I get to work and do something great and have fun’? I couldn’t think of anything else. So I was like, ‘I’m stuck doing this because I actually, truly love it’.”

Mila recently revealed she went on a junk food binge after months of strict dieting for Black Swan.

“My mom freaked out,” she said. “She was like, ‘You have to promise me his isn’t going to affect you.’ I was like, ‘I promise it won’t, but it might take me a little time to be OK with having a little more fat on me.’

“I could see why this industry is so f—-d up, because … I would literally look at myself in the mirror and I was like, ‘Oh my God!’ I had no shape, no boobs, no ass … all you saw was the bone. I was like, ‘This looks gross.’

“In real life I looked disgusting but in photographs and on film, it looked amazing.”

    She is so real. Thank goodness all high profile actresses aren’t dense and obsessed with being popsicle sticks. Thank you Mila!

      You’re kidding, right? You bought that hapless hollywood drivel? She’s STILL a popsicle stick, she just said that so gullible folks like you would accuse her of being “so real” What a DOLT! LOL

  • Jeremiah

    I want her all to myself… and not sexually… but everything else really. You could just tell that shes a cool ass person.

  • Kevin

    Should an actor tax – starting tax actors/actress 95% of them income.

  • The Blaster

    She needs to shut up, confine her talking to scripts in films and TV. She sounds like a complete idiot when she uses her own words.

      i think you missed the point. she was poor, worked her way to being rich, and she is denouncing money and says she doesn’t care about it. that would be the opposite of spoiled. to your other comments, i’m sure her boyfriend is pleased to hear you telling her to fuck him. everything she says makes the news because people post what she says/does, mila does not. it’s not her fault if journalists want to write about her. i hope your sad, pathetic life now has some clarity.
