Welp, we can probably just shut the internet down early today because not much will top this story. A woman named Kristina Karo, who claims to be a childhood friend of Mila Kunis’ back in the Ukraine, is suing the actress for $5,000 for the cost of therapy and emotional distress due to Kunis allegedly stealing a pet chicken from her when they were kids.
Karo has also since moved to Los Angeles to pursue a singing career, but claims that the close proximity to her former friend has caused the memories to resurface and by proxy has “prevented her from pursuing the American dream.”
Ooooookay. TMZ has all of the sordid details:
Kristina Karo claims 25 years ago she was in first grade with Mila in the Ukraine and they were inseparable. But Kristina says Mila had chicken envy — specifically a chicken which answered to the name Doggie. Kristina alleges in her lawsuit she loved Doggie like a dog, and so did Mila, who would come to her house and play with the little clucker.
But one day Doggie disappeared, and Kristina says Mila confessed that she stole it, saying, “Kristina, you can have any other chicken as a pet, you have a whole chicken farm.”
Did anyone else read that last line in Jackie Burkhart’s voice, or just me? At any rate, something about this smells funny, and it’s not the Ukrainian chicken farm. Still, if I were Kunis, I’d just give the woman her five grand and wash my hands of it.
Presented without commentary, here is the accuser’s official music video for her song, “Give Me Green Card.”
