Mila Kunis New York premiere of 'Friends with Benefits'
Mila Kunis and Justin Timberlake have a lot of sex in the must see movie, Friends With Benefits. This is my personal must see movie for the summer. It’s going to be great… and um…HOT. Sorry, I am excited. Can’t help myself. These two have great chemistry on the comedic side and in the bedroom.

Mila talked to Star about her amazing career, her balance and more:
Q: After your excruciating diet and exercise regimen for Black Swan ended, did you pig out?
You have no idea! It took me five months to lose 20 lbs. and five minutes to gain it all back. After the last night of shooting, I had a massive bowl of macaroni and cheese. When I arrived in L.A., I drove straight to an In-N-Out Burger and had a Double-Double Animal Style with a root beer float. It was fantastic!
Q: As a former child star, how have you stayed so grounded?
I have problems, you just don’t know about them because I’m a little smarter about not making them public. Some people go to a bar and get wasted and half-naked in public. I’m like, “Keep doing it if you want to — just do it in the privacy of your own home.”
Q: Is this movie a way for you to break into the rom-com world without doing the usual thing?
Maybe. We always thought of it as more of a comedy than a romantic comedy. If anything, it’s a buddy comedy with a little romance in it, because ultimately you care about the characters.
Q: Why was it important that character be such a big part of the movie?
Otherwise you just have hijinks, and you can only take hijinks so far because it gets boring after a while. I think to get a person involved, you have to make them care for you.
Q: Your character is pretty emotionally damaged, thanks to her weird mother.
It’s important to understand where Jamie comes from. You understand people when you meet their family and their friends. You get more of a sense of who they are. The original draft [of the script] was not as interesting as Patricia Clarkson made it. She came in and created a character out of nothing.
Q: Were you encouraged to go off the script much?
There are a couple of parts in the film that were at-the-moment type of things. One scene, where Justin was like, “Get your feet off the bed!” That was improvised because I think I had dirty feet from walking around onstage.
Q: Did you and Justin work on building a relationship with each other before you started filming?
You mean did I fall on top of him as a trust game? No. I know what would happen. I’d fall!
F.Y.I., the movie opens TODAY!
