Ashton Kutcher could have been one of many heartthrobs of the early 2000s … however he shockingly says he was as soon as fired from a Gucci marketing campaign for being “too fats.”

The “That ’70s Present” alum shared his story whereas chatting with Leisure Tonight lately … revealing he booked an unique marketing campaign for Gucci in his early modeling days and flew all the way in which to Italy for the shoot. However, when he slipped into his pink Speedo, he says Gucci Inventive Director Tom Ford mentioned he was “too fats” and fired him.

Ashton mentioned he was 178 kilos on the time, however did not take it too personally and understood Ford “had a selected factor he wished to see.” He was about 19 on the time, which might have positioned this case in 1997 or 1998.

Ashton doubtless received the final chuckle anyway, as a result of he booked “That ’70s Present” across the similar time and have become a family title after the present premiered in 1998.
