Mila Kunis graces the August issue of GQ where she talks about Friends With Benefits and being a Trekkie. Great. So Mila Kunis is pandering to geeks now? Not quite.
First up is the obligatory have you ever or would you have a friend with benefits. Turns out she’s no fun. Boo.
GQ: Your new movie is called Friends with Benefits. Ever been in one of those relationships?
Mila Kunis: Oy. I haven’t, but I can give you my stance on it: It’s like communism—good in theory, in execution it fails. Friends of mine have done it, and it never ends well. Why do people put themselves through that torture?
GQ: It’s because they enjoy sex.
Mila Kunis: But friends with benefits isn’t a purely sexual relationship—it’s two people who like each other having sex, not a random hookup. And when two people who like each other have sex, eventually someone catches feelings and everything is fucked. You might be able to treat our relationship as killing time. I might not. I may be in love with you.
That’s debatable. I can assure you the women who have sex with me don’t like me at all. But I digress.
Later on in the interview, Mila Kunis discusses her fascination with Star Trek.
GQ: When did you get into Star Trek?
Mila Kunis: I got into it in my late teens—18, 19, 20. Something like that. I got into it later than most people. But let’s not talk about it in the past tense. I’m still a Star Trek fan. You never stop being one. Let me give you my rundown of the series in order of most favorite to least favorite.
GQ: I definitely have my answer to this. Let’s hear it.
Mila Kunis: Okay. You should know this list is an ongoing argument between Seth MacFarlane and myself. But I have it: The Next Generation; the original series; then Voyager—
GQ: Okay, you’re already wrong.
Mila Kunis: F**k. You and I are in trouble already. This always happens with Star Trek fans. After Voyager, then I have Deep Space Nine. Then last is Enterprise.
Cough*nerd*cough! Can someone find a trash can? I have an overwhelming urge to put her in one. Granted, that really depends on this last question. Has she attended any conventions and/or Star Trek theme bars. Be careful, Mila. How extreme your wedgie is is determined by your answer.
GQ: Did your Star Trek fandom extend further than just watching the show?
Mila Kunis: Uh, I went a little bit further.
GQ: How so?
Mila Kunis: I went to the Star Trek Experience in Vegas maybe five years ago. I hung out with a bunch of fake characters inside Quark’s bar. [Ed note: Quark was the name of the Ferengi bartender on DS9.] There were all these actors there pretending to be the different characters from the different shows. Yes, I loved it.
GQ: Please tell me you didn’t go by yourself.
Mila Kunis: No! I went with friends. I’m not that big of a loser. But I also have a signed Leonard Nimoy photo in a little frame that a girlfriend gave to me for my 21st birthday. And I’ve got a bunch of vintage Star Trek figurines given to me by Jason Segel. God, it’s so embarrassing.
*Shakes head* I didn’t want to do this but. *Grabs Mila’s panties with two hands* *Pulls until an audible snap is heard*
