CBS producers may be getting worried over the scandal surrounding its new “Two and a Half Men” star, Ashton Kutcher and his wife, Demi Moore. As the scandalous headlines of former “Men” actor, Charlie Sheen, finally calmed down, Ashton Kutcher is front and center with rumors of an affair with a woman by the name of Sara Leal. Kutcher is believed to have spent the night with her during the weekend of his sixth wedding anniversary to Demi.
Did Warner Bros. know what they were getting themselves into hiring the 33-year-old actor for “Two and a Half Men”? Last year Kutcher was allegedly cheating on Demi with another blonde. The news this time is a fiery inferno of Twitter wars between Kutcher and his wife in addition to Star publishing a report that the two are headed into a costly divorce.
Sara Leal is believed to be a woman Kutcher hand picked out of a crowded nightclub while he was Las Vegas during his anniversary weekend. If that wasn’t enough, he allegedly took part in judging a “who’s hot tub worthy or not” competition among the women there.
Ashton Kutcher and Charlie Sheen easily get into scandal and this may not be a good thing for “Two and a Half Men.” It’s bad luck to see the new star of their series already receiving negative press once they made a settlement with Sheen, whose work suffered as a direct result of his substance abuse and steady throng of porn stars he cavorted with. He didn’t have a problem exploiting his self-destructive behavior in front of millions, raking in more Twitter followers in the meantime.
Will Ashton Kutcher go down the same path of scandal? Will his work suffer and production on the comedy series he’s now a part of halt filming because his life is such a mess, he can’t make it to the studio? Warner Bros. is probably sweating it a little right about now. Are they worried they’re in for another case of bad luck with a key actor for “Two and a Half Men”?
