The Missing Red Bracelet...

on Ashton Kutcher's wrist

Evidently Ashton Kutcher has taken to wearing the red Kabbalah bracelet first popularized by Madonna and also worn by his girlfriend, Demi Moore, does.

The makers of his new movie, Guess Who had to spend $100,000 to digitally erase the bracelet from his wrist throughout the movie because it annoyed test audiences.

I have to say that unless Ashton's character was supposed to follow Kabbalah and it was appropriate to the story, it didn't belong on his wrist in the first place. Either Ashton should have agreed not to wear it, or the producers should have budgeted from the beginning to have the digital erasure done. It's about the movie-making, not about making personal religious statements...
