Ashton Kutcher is coming clean.
“The Beauty” actor made it clear this week that he practices good hygiene four years after he and wife, Mila Kunis, faced scrutiny over remarks that implied they don’t shower often.
“It was the craziest thing of all time,” the 47-year-old told People magazine Monday. “We made a comment at one point, and people were like, ‘Does he stink? Does he smell?'”
Kutcher explained to his costars Anthony Ramos and Jeremy Pope: “There was a comment on a podcast, so long ago… and people are like, ‘They don’t shower.’ I’m like, ‘I shower, I go to the gym, I shower.’”

“I can confirm my boy showers,” Ramos joked.
In July 2021, Kunis told Dax Shepherd on his “Armchair Expert” podcast, “When I had children, I also didn’t wash them every day. I wasn’t that parent that bathed my newborns — ever.”
Kutcher chimed in at the time: “Now, here’s the thing: If you can see the dirt on them, clean them. Otherwise, there’s no point.”

“I wash my armpits and my crotch daily, and nothing else ever,” Kutcher divulged. “I got a bar of Lever 2000 that delivers every time. Nothing else.”
He added, “I do have a tendency to throw some water on my face after a workout to get all the salts out.”
Kunis added that she washes her face “twice a day.”

“It’s water,” Kunis tells Kutcher, who’s filming the bathroom saga.

“It’s too much,” Kunis jokingly agrees.
