Everyone loves a man (or woman!) in uniform—and that goes for Hollywood's A-list, too. Just a week after "Friends With Benefits" co-star Justin Timberlake made good on his promise to attend a Marine Corps Ball in Richmond, VA, Mila Kunis hopped a plane to North Carolina for her own date with U.S. Marine Sgt. Scott Moore. The actress accepted her invitation to the event over the summer, when Sgt. Moore's heartfelt request for her company became a hit on YouTube.
Mila avoided the media during her visit to Greenville, N.C., in favor of quietly enjoying the evening's celebration of military history, but a couple of photos made their way onto the web at People, showing that Mila's look for the ball included a simple black dress and some seriously smoky eye makeup. And it looks like the pair avoided any first-date awkwardness swimmingly; in our favorite pic, she's animatedly talking while her date looks on with a big, gorgeous grin. Not that we blame him! If we'd singlehandedly started the whole "asking celebrities to military events via YouTube" trend, we'd be pretty pleased with ourselves, too.
According to a Marine who attended the ball, Mila was "very nice and very respectful." "She gets credit and a lot of respect for coming here, not being part of this world and following through on her word," he said.
