After Danny Masterson was convicted of rape, Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis wrote letters to the judge on his behalf, asking for leniency in his sentencing. Those letters were released on Friday, prompting Ashton and Mila to apologize. One of Danny Masterson’s accusers says Ashton Kutcher is “just as sick” as him, and Mila Kunis should get therapy because of the way both guys treated her when she was a minor on “That ’70s Show”.
New details came out over the weekend about Zach Bryan’s arrest on Thursday. He interfered with a traffic stop with Oklahoma’s Highway Patrol when his security guard was pulled over for speeding. Zach pulled over to wait for his security guard, but got impatient and went over to the trooper asking what was taking so long. He refused orders to get back into his truck and said, quote, “I’ll go to jail, let’s do it.” Before the dashcam footage was released, he put out an apology video for his behavior and said he was immature and disrespectful towards the officer. Zach said, “My decisions did not reflect who I was as a person, and I just want to make that clear . . .”I should have been smarter about it . . . I’m a grown man, and I shouldn’t have behaved like that, and it won’t happen again.” The footage released Saturday is pretty bad. The officer also said that Zach’s dad told him he’d be getting the Governor of Oklahoma involved. Zach spent a few hours in jail, and was released on a $1,000 bond. In related news, Zach’s mugshot is being used by Spotify for their “Outlaw” country playlist. Zach’s girlfriend also poked fun at the incident and posted a video of herself lip syncing to Britney Spears’ “Criminal”.
