LOS ANGELES: A US marine described his dream date with Mila Kunis on Monday, calling the Hollywood star “down to earth” -- and revealing the pair danced to the 1980s hit “(I've had the) Time of My Life.”
Sergeant Scott Moore spent Friday night with the 28-year-old actress after she accepted his YouTube invitation to the Marine Corps Ball in Greenville, North Carolina.
“It went very well, couldn't have gone better. It was a very good time,” Moore, who has just returned from seven months in Afghanistan, told CBS television.
“She was very down to earth, eager to learn everything that was going on,” he added, saying she was interested to learn about the Marine Corps annual celebration, held every November to mark its founding in 1775.
Dressed in full Marine uniform, Moore said there wasn't much dancing during the 4-5 hours he spent with Kunis -- but one of the songs they did step out to was “(I've had) The Time of My Life” from the film “Dirty Dancing.”
Asked if he picked her up -- as Patrick Swayze does memorably in the cult 1987 movie -- he replied: “No, this uniform is not as mobile as you might think.”
Moore became a YouTube star earlier this year when, stationed in Musa Qala, southern Afghanistan, he posted a video inviting Kunis to the Marine Corps Ball -- and the “Friends with Benefits” and “Black Swan” star said yes.
A short time later a female Marine, Corporal Kelsey De Santis, invited Justin Timberlake -- Kunis's co-star in “Friends With Benefits” -- to her Marine Corps Ball on November 12 in Washington DC, which he also accepted.
Moore was clearly still reeling from his weekend date with Kunis.
“We promised to keep in touch, so we'll see,” he said. Asked if he had her phone number, he said: “I do not.”
