Millions of women would snap at the opportunity to get frisky with Justin Timberlake under the sheets but Mila wasn’t exactly impressed with his skills. While filming a sex scene for Friends with Benefits, Mila actually fell asleep. “One time Justin was on Mila, kissing her, and she fell asleep,” Will Gluck, the director of the film told E! Online. “We called cut and he got off and she was sleeping. So that’s how good in bed Justin Timberlake is.”

Mila had originally auditioned for the lead role in the hit film Knocked Up but she didn’t get the part. Instead, the role was given to Katherine Heigl. The same director, however, later decided that Kunis would be perfect for another role he had available and cast her as Rachel Jansen in the hit comedy Forgetting Sarah Marshall – a movie that put Mila back on the map.

She may seem like the most honest person in the world but Mila has admitted that she lied to get a role on That 70’s Show. She initially told producers that she would be 18 “soon” despite only being 14 at the time. Directors eventually found out about the fib when Mila was asked to sign her contract but, by then, she had already won them all over and there was no way they were going to let her go.

Kunis worked her butt off (literally) to play the role of Lily in the Black Swan. She lost 20 pounds in 4 months by working out 5 hours a day, 7 days a week and sticking to a very strict 1200-calorie per day diet. When she was finished filming the movie, she immediately went to In-N-Out where she ordered a Double Double animal style with a root beer float.
