Ashton Kutcher on "Dancing with the Stars?"
The A-lister, currently promoting his movie "Spread," probably won't be putting on his ballroom shoes anytime soon.
But if he ever decides to pursue a dance career, his partnering skills aren't too shabby. On "Live with Regis and Kelly" on Monday, the actor gamely took "So You Think You Can Dance" winner Jeanine Mason on a spin. Here's the video:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ydl6qfBMKJw
After performing the solo that helped her twirl her way to victory last Thursday, the 18-year-old Florida native straddled Kutcher's neck, and he stood up to his full height with the young dancer on his shoulders, legs shooting out past his face.
Mr. Demi Moore then pretended to fall to the ground, resulting a tangle of his head with Mason’s bare legs as they rolled around on the floor together.
The Twitter-prone actor later Tweeted to his followers, "So much fun on Regis and Kelly. What a blast I'll comeback anytime."
We wonder if Demi, who arrived with him for his appearance on the show, feels the same.
Moments before their duet, Kutcher grilled Mason about the steamy kiss she shared with fellow contestant Jason on the hit reality show.
Mason first made it clear that the two "are very good friends, and that's it, though. So we'll clear that up right now."
But Travis Wall, who choreographed the romantic routine that ended in the steamy liplock, had told the dancers to make it real, and maybe they got a little carried away.
"You should know this Ashton, being an actor, things happen," Mason teased him.
"It looked real to me," Kutcher said.
So less than a week after her win, Mason is chumming around with a major star and maybe even jumpstarting her second career (or will it be her first?): acting.
