No, you are not punked. Ashton Kutcher is merely to close rumors about his co-star’s death in the Ashton Kutcher way possible.
The actor seems to take it upon himself to be the bearer of good news because he spreads the word of him That 70’s Show co-star Tanya Roberts does not actually die on January 3rd. Her publication Mike Pingel had previously confirmed her death, before telling NBC News that the 65-year-old star was still alive.
But not all of her That 70’s Show cast received the memo. So on Monday, January 4, Ashton tweeted to let them know.
Topher Grace was among those mourning her death. He originally wrote: ‘I was so sad to hear that Tanya Roberts passed away. She was a Bond girl, one of Charlie’s Angels and really a beautiful person to work with. ‘ The Spider-Man 3 actor added: “I’ve never acted before and, to be honest, a little nervous around her. But she could not have been friendlier. We will miss you Midge,” referring to her character Midge Pinciotti, while playing Eric Forman from 1998 to 2006.
