Ashton Kutcher was so desperate during his years as a model in New York he'd hook up with women just so he had a nice place to spend the night.
The actor/producer admits his life was so miserable when he first arrived in the Big Apple he'd romance lusty girls in a bid to find a good place to sleep.
He tells Parade magazine, "It was always a good thing to hook up with a girl... (I) got to sleep some place nice for the night. I wasn't there to stay, but, if you did hit it off with a girl, her place was always nicer than yours."
And Kutcher reveals he was so broke in the years before he became an actor, heading home to Iowa for Christmas with his family was a humbling experience.
He explains, "I was running out of money. I knew I had to go home for the holidays, but I couldn't expose the fact that it wasn't going well.
"So I bought my whole family these fake watches and fake Versace pants and fake anything I could find, like fake Calvin Klein T-shirts, so I could take them home and show them how well I was doing, even though I didn't have a place to live."
