A cute actress with olive skin and pixie features, Milena Markovna Kunis are Russian born, became a breakout teen star on the FOX sitcom That_'70s_Show, playing spoiled daddy's girl Jackie Burkhardt. The rare 15 year old actress to be cast as a 15 year-old character, Mila Kunis also demonstrated her maturity by mastering accent free English only a few years after immigrating.
Milena was born on August 14, 1983 in Kiev, Ukraine, moved with her parents to Los Angeles, USA when she was seven years old. Kunis credits listening to the simple vocabulary of Bob Barker on The Price Is Right with helping her develop a speedy fluency in English. She enrolled in acting classes at the Beverly Hills Studio, where she was discovered performing in a showcase. She quickly began appearing in commercials. Kunis filled out her early resumé with such pit stops as Honey,_We_Shrunk_Ourselves (1997), Krippendorf's_Tribe (1998), and the infamous WB ratings cellar-dweller Nick Freno: Licensed Teacher (1996). She also played a younger version of Angelina_Jolie in the HBO movie Gia (1998). But it was her casting in Mark_Brazill's That_'70s_Show that earned Kunis notice, as her petulant teen queen soon became a standout, able to range from endearing to grating. Her aggravated whining rung true enough to earn her a voice-over role on Family Guy, taking over for Lacey_Chabert as Megan Griffin during the 2000 season.
Kunis played a supporting role in the teen comedy Get_Over_It (2001) and a lead role in unlikely sequel American Psycho II: All American Girl (2002) while continuing as a TV regular. She also followed in Alicia_Silverstone's footsteps by appearing in the Aerosmith video for "Jaded." Derek Armstrong, Rovi
