Kaballah Is Rotting His Brain

Filed under: TV News > Reality Television > Ashton Kutcher

mx0118843.jpg

Ashton Kutcher is set to be one of the executive producers on ABC's new game show Opportunity Knocks.

Yea, cuz we all know what a big hit Pop Fiction on E! turned out to be.

During a recent panel at the Television Critics Association for the new ABC show, Kutcher said, "You can succeed without hurting people. I believe that you always have to have compassion before you have judgment. And then any time you have judgment without compassion, it will fall apart."

Say what?????

The actor and "producer" went on and on and on with more drivel like that.

He adds, "You might get a big pop really quick, but that energy will dissolve. So we always try to instill some universal compassion into the shows that we do.”

Compassion? We're guessing like the compassion shown on Punk'd?

As for coming up with the idea for the show, he says, “I don’t believe anybody owns ideas. We’re blessed with being able to manage ideas in our lives.”

What the hell does he mean?

And in regard to getting local residents' permission to shoot a game show, Kutcher said, “Contrary to popular belief, the human condition is actually a positive one. If you present somebody with an easy opportunity to help somebody else, for the most part people will accept it — as long as it’s easy."

He's so poetic all of a sudden!

But the best quote comes in regards to other actors complaining about the popularity of reality shows.

To that, Kutcher says, “Have you ever sat at a dinner table and somebody set down a big cake, the dessert you really, really want, and you sort of start watching people take the pieces and it starts dwindling down and you start to get a little worried. ‘Am I going to get my piece?’"

He's a piece of work!

Continues Kutcher, "And you have all this anxiety as to whether or not you’re going to get your piece until you see the guy come out of the kitchen with another cake and it makes you go, ‘oh, it’s okay.’ And that all those actors that are sort of bitching about reality TV taking away their money or their jobs, I think that there’s another cake coming and they’ll be fine.”

Damn. Now we're hungry.

Will U watch Kutcher's new show?

    29

    So if a guy shows some personal and spiritual growth in his life, he needs to shut up? WTF are you talking about? I agreed with his comments, most people live in a mindset of limited resources and it limits their life.

    Or is it just that Perez is being petty and shallow again, and because he's good looking, he couldn't possibly be intelligent too…. -_-

  30. msw says – reply to this

    i think he's talking about himself and that he must accept game shows as means for a pay check. probally not too many movie offers coming in!!!

    31

    It's so sad, it reminds me of when he was trying to hang out with and Dress like P-Diddy. He is so desperate to be a part of something that he is now nothing more than a parrot repeating back things from Kaballah pamphlets. he reminds me of the Jehova's Witnesses that come to your door and think they have an answer to everything but really just end up sounding lost and a bit sad. He really sounds like he isn't too bright which is prbobalbly why he and Demi get along so well.

  32. gll says – reply to this


    32

    Somehow I'm not surprised that you find the idea of compassion to be crazy drivel. Why don't you try it in your writing once in a while?

  33. lol says – reply to this


    33

    He's trying to act smart but he FAILED. he's not Jim Morrison that's for damn sure.

  34. Hyde says – reply to this


    34

    Careful Perez, how shallow you are is showing. Ashton still has a little growing up to do, but he's much further along than you are. Just because someone shows some actual intelligence and caring doesn't mean they should "shut up".

  35. starv says – reply to this

    I'm an actor - hey Ashton, about the cake thing? Can I have that in writing?

    Why is he dressed like an old man? Especially the pants….those are Grampa pants.



  38. 38

    douche

  39. Prisc says – reply to this


    39

    No, I won't watch it. I don't watch anything with which he is associated anymore. I think he is a crummy actor who has gotten a pass because of his pretty face and his association with another (albeit sagging) pretty face, Demi Moore. He played a doofus on THAT SEVENTIES SHOW and it seems that he is destined to realize that same role in his own life. What turned me off him were his appearances on THE TONIGHT SHOW. They were truly embarrassing.

    Ashton Kutcher is best viewed with duct tape on his mouth and no clothes on.

    Ashton..I love you BUT buy a coat that fits you!!!!!!!!

  45. Spark says – reply to this


    45

    Perez, you're self centered. The only success you're happy 4 is Madonna's…and any Latina. Also, you're a bit of an anti-Semite on this one and being a Jewish, devoted reader of yours, you should cut that crap out. Kutcher can do whatever he wants.



  46. 46

    perez you're not really in a position to say anything, being that you're a giant contradictory hypocrite yourself. also, i think he may have said a thing or 2 that got under your skin because you know you suck as a human being. you've no compassion for anyone but yourself & your wallet, which you clearly demonstrate on a daily basis. also, you're full of shit putting quote marks around "producer". he's an actual producer, not a fake one. perez, don't you understand your attempts at righteous indignation are 100% see through as jealousy, to anyone with half a brain?



  47. 47

    Re: Dooce – heather, if that's really you, my god, how pathetic of you to spam this low brow site to try and generate some traffic for yours. oh boo hoo, you lost your job. that was 100 years ago in internet years, get over it already, lol.

    It reminds me of when Mike Tyson got out of jail and tried to impress everyone by quoting Aristotle who he read while behind bars. It comes off as, "Hey, I'm smart now!"

    Difference is, Tyson's likable.

    Hi Perez-I didn't get what the fuck the thing's he said got to do with kabahla or the jewish religion,but I have noticed that it's not the first time that you are trying to make it seem like jews are controling the hollywood industry and destroying brains (like the Madonna article or whatever you call it).
    Hey Perez-do you have a problem with jews??? Don't forget-without acceptence from them you will not work in Hollywood you wannabe…..

    So.. I think what is he saying is that if this show is a piece of shit and gets yanked.. he has another piece of shit right around the corner? btw is his mom (demi) in the show?

    He makes total sense, and you could do with some of his wisdom. Before someone sues you for antisemitic statements.

    I don't know why you're ragging on him. For once, someone in Hollywood is saying something interesting, even if it takes a little reflection to understand it.

    Re: RoxX – It's exactly your stupidity that my initial post was talking about. Just because I'm good looking means I'm not smart, ummm…ya ok, good logic. Can't have good looking people running around with brains, now can you? That would mean they're better than you in all areas of life, not just beauty. Sad how personal growth is perceived as negative on this site. Bunch of haters imo.

    so, what are you saying perez… that everyone should be shallow and cruel like you?

    just because you suck as a human being doesn't mean that the rest of the world should live at your level.

    THATS A QUOTE FROM REV. YEHUDA BERG. a kabbalist.
    WHAT A JOKE.

    Idiot. The reason *I* complain about stupid ass "reality" TV is that it;s stupid ass shit that doesn't entertain me. I don't fucking pay for cable TV to watch that shit (nor endless hours of "paid programming").

    If actors complain about reality TV it's because the reason it was invented (by corporate asswipes) is so that they can put some sensationalist drivel on the air and not have to pay talented writers to write new shows or talented actors to act in said shows. Average morons in "reality" shows make asses of themselves on national television for a pittance, the bullshit stations get high ratings and also get to sell adverti$ing spots for plenty of $$$$$$. It's win/win for the suits. Actors *should* be complaining!! That trash is putting talented people out of work.
