The data
systems technician gained fame - and apparently a date with actress Mila Kunis
- when he posted a video on YouTube last week inviting the "Black
Swan" star to accompany him to the Marine Corps Ball in Greenville, North
Carolina, in November. The annual event marks the founding of the Marines in
1775.
Kunis learned of the video during a recent interview with her
"Friends With Benefits" co-star, Justin Timberlake, who urged her to
fulfill her patriotic duties. Kunis agreed to the date, saying, "I'll go."
Her publicist, Melissa Raubvogel, had no comment. Moore said Tuesday that he
made the video after a fellow Marine bet he wouldn't.
Standing on a base in
Afghanistan and wearing his uniform and black sunglasses, he says on the
19-second video: "Hey Mila. It's Sgt. Moore, but you can call me Scott. I
just wanted to take a moment out of my day to invite you to the Marine Corps
Ball on Nov. 18 in Greenville, North Carolina, with yours truly. So take a
second, think about it and get back to me."
He said that though he has not communicated directly with
the actress, "I have heard back from her people."
