Hold onto your iPhones. Ashton Kutcher, star of such critically acclaimed films as Valentine's Day and Dude, Where's My Car? has been selected to participate in a U.S. tech delegation to Russia. In what sounds like the set-up for an SNL sketch, Kutcher will be right there alongside eBay CEO John Donahoe and Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey discussing The Way We E-Live Now with delegates I don't know the names of but who, I'm assuming, will be severe, frowny old Russian dudes somewhat concerned about the impact of new technologies on their rapidly growing, problem-beset nation. This is actually going down, no fooling, IRL-style, in the near future. Think about that! Reports the LA Times:

The participants were chosen because they represent a microcosm of the technology industry and they make efforts to do social good. Kutcher, and his actress wife Demi Moore, for example, have a foundation that works on trafficking issues. Kutcher is also active in social media.

Good on him for the foundation. But is posting pictures of himself in silly Russian hats and tweeting pictures of his wife's ass really what we want our frenemy country to think being "active in social media" means? Will he end up in a Russian prison for life after his attempts to "punk" someone go horribly awry? Will this trigger an international diplomatic crisis? More importantly, is "diplomat by way of underwear model" the new "it" career choice for asinine TV stars? Nobody tell Tila Tequila, ok?
