Comment on Ashton Kutcher Joins the Airbnb Team

Comments

I think you guys are being unnecessarily hard on Kutcher. It is a flawed assumption that being a celebrity (sportsman, musician) means you have no additional value.

There are medical doctors than when on to play football (the real one); Nigeria has a Cornell Physics PhD candidate that does rap. etc.

Why do you guys (critics) believe you can add better value to AirBnB than Aston.

I believe celebrities need to do a little bit extra to show they are more than what is seen on TV.

So take a moment to stop beefing and say

Congrats AirBnB for a nice coup.

It isn't that he is a celebrity, it is that he is Ashton Kutcher (Michael Kelso).

This isn't Natalie Portman we are talking about....

or even Dolph Lundgren:

Michael Kelso is a fictional character.
