Yesterday, the famous American actor Ashton Kutcher was very tense. The 39-year-old actor was invited to his native state of Iowa at Drake University in Des Moines, where Ashton once studied, in order to present the Robert D. Ray Pillar Character Award. It was organized by Governor Robert Rey in 1938 and is awarded to people who are "a good role model."
Kutcher remembered his childhood and sibling
What is the presentation of the prestigious award without a touching and beautiful speech? Ashton did not depart from the tradition and, having risen on the stage behind his statuette, uttered a 16-minute speech in which he remembered not only his childhood and his brother, but also his wives. That's what Kutcher said:
"I am very pleased to be in this room and hold this prestigious award in my hands. You know, I'm probably the only possessor of this statuette, which boasts a rather turbulent childhood and school years. I think that not everyone knows that I have a lot of not very pleasant things behind me, which I would not like to recall, but this award obliges me to tell about them. So, I was taking "magic" mushrooms in my youth, and the effect from them seemed to me the most beautiful thing that can ever be in my life. In addition, I participated in the burglary, however, the decision on this case has not yet been made. And I also have a brand that I was given after my actions. I am a "womanizer" and an "eternal betrayer."
After that, Ashton decided to remember his brother:
"However, in my childhood there is something that makes me proud. My younger brother Michael is sick with cerebral palsy and since childhood he was offended by children. I did everything to protect him. You know, when you accompany your brother from a walk, and then a boy runs up to you and just hits you on the head just because he wants to make fun of Michael, and I do not give - that's a difficult situation! But I always had the strength and courage to say to the offenders "no", and sometimes even to punish the fists with the fact that they are not right. "

Ashton told about his wives
In addition to his childhood Kutcher decided to talk about what in his life means the wife of Mila Kunis:
"You know, after all the mistakes I made in my childhood and youth, only now I came to the fact that optimism, kindness, love and the desire to achieve something very good and great are the most important things in the world. All that I am doing now is directed at ensuring that my wife, children, parents and all my friends experience the joy of communicating with me. In addition, I am very grateful to Mile for the fact that every day she "kicks me on the fifth point". For example, yesterday morning I started with a good, I thought, action. My beloved was still asleep, and I decided to get up early and go to our children. Within an hour I began to realize that I was completely exhausted. And then Mila comes to me who says to me: "Are you tired? And imagine that I have such a morning every day. "
And in the end of his speech, Ashton remembered a divorce from his first wife Demi Moore:
"Demi and I behaved incorrectly. I understood that my behavior is unworthy and this novel behind her is something disgusting. When finally the divorce was over, I experienced incredible relief and happiness. It seems to me that I am one of the few who really felt what freedom is after a divorce. "
