Christopher Ashton Kutcher was born on February 7, 1978, in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, five minutes before his fraternal twin brother, Michael. At age 13, parents Larry Kutcher and Diane Portwood divorced. Ashton may be just another teen star, but he stands out from the usual pack with his diversity of interests. He is a biochemistry student turned model turned actor turned producer turned "It" boy. Ashton was discovered by pure chance. He was simply at the right place (an Iowa bar) at the right time (when a model scout happened to be there). He made the most of the opportunity and sought out the best way to achieve his goals. Now with more than six seasons of That '70s Show under his belt, and boasting a handful of film credits and his own MTV show, Kutcher has a solid footing in Hollywood. Maybe just solid enough to keep from disappearing off the celebrity map like so many of his teen star predecessors
