Love Quote by Mila Kunis

"I love swimming, tennis, and I am taking up golf. I am not serious about it, I just go to the range and practice. Other than that, I enjoy going to the movies and hanging out with my friends"

About this Quote

Kunis’s list of hobbies reads like a carefully casual selfie: active, sociable, broadly relatable, and just specific enough to feel un-scripted. Swimming and tennis signal discipline without sounding monastic; golf, the classic rich-person sport, is immediately defanged by the disclaimer. “I am not serious about it” functions as a cultural pressure valve. It keeps ambition from curdling into try-hardness, and it dodges the celebrity trap where every new interest is treated like a rebrand.

The subtext is a performance of normalcy in a job defined by artifice. Actors are expected to be interesting but not exhausting, aspirational but still “someone you could hang with.” The phrase “just go to the range and practice” paints golf as harmless routine rather than identity. She isn’t “taking lessons,” she isn’t “obsessed,” she isn’t chasing mastery. That restraint is the point: competence is cool, but hunger reads as needy.

Then she pivots to movies and friends, a neat reminder that her off-camera life is built on the same low-stakes pleasures as everyone else’s. It’s also slyly meta: an actress who “enjoy[s] going to the movies” reinforces the idea that she loves the medium, not just the paycheck. In the celebrity ecosystem, where every hobby can be monetized and every preference can be litigated online, Kunis offers an appealingly unoptimized persona: athletic enough to be admired, unserious enough to be liked.
