Jessica (played by Abaleigh Tipton) receives a message from shorter underclassman Robbie Weaver (played by Jonah Bobo) who's texting her while in class.Robbie: [text message] “Hi, Jessica. FYI, Demi Moore is fifteen years older than Ashton K. They really seem happy. Love, Robbie.”— Crazy Stupid Love (2011), written by Dan Fogelman, directed by Glenn Ficarra and John Requa
As it turns out, the message from lovesick Robbie was slightly premature. Not long after Crazy Stupid Love opened, rumors began circulating that Ashton Kutcher had been caught cheating by his wife. Now, Demi Moore has confirmed that she’ll be filing for divorce. (The Huffington Post recounts here scenes from their six-year marriage.)
I’ve never held much belief in Ms. Moore’s qualities as an actress. But am I right in thinking that her soon-to-be-second-ex (in line behind Bruce Willis) is not terribly far removed from the male bimbo he played for several years on That ‘70s Show? In addition to reports of his infidelity, what made me wonder anew was his recent tweet about how Penn State could ever fire Joe Paterno. (It seems he had no idea that the school’s sex scandal had been exploding in the media for the past several days.)
Hopeless romantics such as Robbie will just have to look elsewhere for examples of enduring love for older women…
