Los Angeles - Thanks to the power of the Internet, a Marine's YouTube request to go on a date with Mila Kunis got through to the actress, who said yes.
In a recent Fox News interview, the 27-year-old star was asked whether she knew about Sgt Scott Moore's video asking her to accompany him to the Marine Corps Ball in November. The annual event marks the founding of the Marines in 1775.
"Hey Mila. It's Sergeant Moore, but you can call me Scott," he said from a base in Afghanistan. "I just wanted to take a moment out of my day to invite you to the Marine Corps Ball on November 18th in Greenville, North Carolina, with yours truly. So take a second, think about it and get back to me."
Kunis reacted with surprise and asked for details about the event during the Fox News interview. After her Friends With Benefits co-star, Justin Timberlake, goaded her to fulfill her patriotic duties, Kunis said she would go.
"We're going to make this happen, sir," she said, looking into the camera. "I'm with you."
Not clear whether Kunis will attend
Further details on whether Kunis has taken additional steps to confirm she would attend the ball remained unclear.
Calls and email messages seeking comments from Kunis' publicist and Moore were not returned on Monday.
The corps' anniversary ball is one of the most important events on a Marine's calendar, according to spokesperson Capt Kendra Hardesty.
Kunis won't be the first celebrity to attend a Marine ball. Other Hollywood stars who've attended over the years include action film actor Chuck Norris and R Lee Ermey, a retired Marine whose most famous role was an intense drill instructor in the film Full Metal Jacket.
