Ashton Kutcher faces 'tough time salvaging career' after being linked to Diddy and Danny Masterson

"Ashton needs to pick his friends better," insiders say as Kutcher regrets ties to Diddy amid legal turmoil.

Ashton Kutcher is facing increasing scrutiny over his long-standing friendship with P. Diddy, as the music mogul grapples with serious legal charges, including sex trafficking and racketeering.

Diddy’s arrest, along with the recent conviction of Kutcher’s 'That ‘70s Show' co-star Danny Masterson, has sparked concerns about Kutcher’s associations. 

“Ashton needs to pick his friends better,” a source told 'In Touch', highlighting the actor’s regret over his connections with two of Hollywood’s most notorious figures. The insider continued, “He’s going to have a tough time salvaging his career after this Diddy mess!”

Kutcher has admitted in past interviews that he attended one of Diddy’s notorious parties, which are now under fire for their alleged "Freak Offs"—wild, drug-fueled multi-day orgies. 

During a 2019 interview, Kutcher joked, “I’ve got a lot I can’t tell,” when referencing his experience at Diddy’s party. Now, those lighthearted remarks have taken on a new weight amid the serious accusations against Diddy.

“If Ashton saw — or worse — participated in any of this stuff, it would sound the death knell of his career,” the source told *In Touch*. 

“The word is he’s terrified he’ll show up on Diddy’s videotapes!” While there’s no indication Kutcher was involved in any illegal activities, the association alone has cast a shadow over his career.

A source close to Kutcher revealed, “[Ashton] feels lied to, betrayed, taken for granted, and manipulated,” adding that the actor is deeply concerned about how Diddy’s legal case will play out. 

“He feels Diddy would have no problem lying to authorities and tossing out some of his famous friends' names if it meant it could get him out of jail.”

Diddy is currently being held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn after his arrest on sex trafficking and racketeering charges in September. 

He has denied all charges and remains on his third bail attempt. Despite no formal accusations against Kutcher, the actor’s connection to Diddy is drawing unwanted attention during this turbulent time.
