Mila Kunis Sparks Jim Bean Boycott With ‘Mike Pence’ Planned Parenthood Stunt

By Dave Goldiner November 1, 2017

Mila Kunis may have gotten herself in some sippin’ trouble with Mike Pence’s right-wing base.

The actress has sparked calls for a boycott of Jim Bean bourbon with her disclosure that she regularly donates to Planned Parenthood in the name of staunch pro-lifer Vice President Mike Pence.

Kunis, who endorses Jim Bean and appears in many of its ad campaigs, is far from alone in tweaking Pence by giving to the pro-choice group.
