Masterson's Past Haunts Hollywood: Victim's Bold Message to Kutcher and Kunis
In a recent revelation that has sent shockwaves through Hollywood, Chrissie Bixler, a former girlfriend of actor Danny Masterson and one of the women who accused him of rape, has taken to social media to confront Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis. The celebrity couple had previously vouched for Masterson's character during his rape trial, describing him as a "role model" with "exceptional character."
Bixler's Instagram story featured an image from ABC News showcasing the couple's quotes in support of Masterson. In a bold message, she addressed Kutcher directly, stating, "Dear Ashton, I know the secrets your 'role model' keeps for you. Ones that would end you." She went on to remind him of a specific phone call from February 21, 2001, where she claims to have overheard a conversation between the two men. Bixler's message insinuates that Kutcher might have been privy to some of Masterson's actions or intentions.
In a subsequent message, Bixler turned her attention to Kunis, suggesting that the actress should reflect on her experiences during the early days of "That 70's Show." Bixler hinted at some undisclosed events in Toronto and urged Kunis to consider therapy. She emphasized, "You all must have forgotten I was there the whole time those first 5 years of That 70's Show. I remember everything."
Masterson, known for his role in "That 70's Show," was recently convicted of two sexual assaults from the early 2000s and has been sentenced to 30 years in prison. Bixler had accused Masterson of drugging and raping her in her sleep, but the court did not find him guilty of assaulting her. Another victim, however, provided a heart-wrenching testimony about an incident in 2003, stating, "When you raped me, you stole from me. That's what rape is, a theft of the spirit." She went on to describe Masterson as "pathetic, disturbed, and completely violent," expressing relief that he would be behind bars.
The revelations and the subsequent confrontations on social media underscore the complexities and sensitivities surrounding high-profile legal cases in Hollywood. While Masterson faces his sentence, the ramifications of the case continue to ripple through the entertainment industry, raising questions about accountability, the role of celebrity endorsements in legal proceedings, and the long shadows that past actions can cast on present reputations.
