Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore: Sundance "Spread" Sun, 18-Jan-2009
Taking to the 2009 Sundance Film Festival, Demi Moore was on-hand to support hubby Ashton Kutcher during the premiere of his new movie "Spread" on Saturday (January 17).
Also mingling with Sundance Institute founder and president Robert Redford, the lovely couple took to Eccles Theatre to promote director David Mackenzie's film about "a gigolo whose life of wealth and excess is turned upside down when he falls for a waitress."
Aside from promoting his new movie, Kutcher's also doing some work for President-elect Barack Obama via a collaboration between MySpace and Kutcher's Katalyst Films.
According to a Los Angeles Times report, Ashton and Demi have rounded up their celebrity pals to "recruit users to pledge service to Obama by recording videos of their pledges and uploading them to MySpace."
Asked where the idea came from, the former "That 70's Show" star tells, "My wife and I, since we met, had been looking for a charitable cause that we can stand in front of. We've stood behind a bunch of them, but we wanted to do something where we could make a quantifiable change in the world. Someone came into our office and had the idea of doing pledges for Obama and instantly it was like, 'We have to do this.'"
Explaining how the whole "pledge" idea works, Kutcher explains, "The first thing you do is set a goal. Then you have to say it out loud to make yourself accountable. That may be one of the only positive aspects of the ego, is that once you say something, your ego sort of forces you to back it up. There will be a site on MySpace that will let users upload videos of themselves making their pledge and have communities organized around actionable causes. Then you go and do what you say you're going to do. It's that simple." |
