After Mila Kunis revealed what she thought was a clever protest idea, she has apparently learned that two can play that game.
The actress disclosed last week that she has been sending monthly donations to Planned Parenthood in Vice President Mike Pence’s name as a form of protest.
“I don’t look at it as a prank. This is just – I strongly disagree, and this is my little way of showing it,” she told late night TV host Conan O’Brien.
But the “Friends With Benefits” actress, who is also a spokesperson for Jim Beam, is now on the receiving end.
Pro-life advocates and Pence supporters took to Twitter and launched a #BoycottBeam campaign on Monday, calling for the bourbon company to end its association with the 34-year-old star who was a vocal supporter of former President Obama.

I doubt Jim Beam knew about Mila’s actions, but now that they do they need to drop her or I will also have to drop Beam. #BoycottBeam

“I disagreed with some of the stuff that Pence was doing and was trying to do,” Kunis told O’Brien. “And so, as a reminder that there are women in the world that may or may not agree with his platform, I put him on a list of reoccurring donations that are made in his name to Planned Parenthood.

Pence, a longtime pro-life advocate, signed several pieces of anti-abortion legislation while serving as Indiana’s governor.
Meanwhile, the bourbon battle continued on Twitter.
@JimBeam so it looks like I’ll be drinking Jack Daniels for as long as you keep that twit as your spokesperson. #boycottbeam

Clearly @MilaKunis stunt w @PPact of sending donations under @VP is something @JimBeam will NOT tolerate as 80% of its consumers are #ProLife ! #BoycottBeam

Would @JimBeam retain a spokesman who bragged about donating to the #NRA in Joe Biden’s name as a way to mock the Obama Admin? #boycottbeam

I will not buy @JimBeam until they get rid of Mila Kunis. I find abortion reprehensible and,whether u agree or not, it should not be taken lightly. She needs to go #BoycottBeam

Loved Jim Beam… But love Jack, Belle, Woodford, Bulleit, and of course, Maker’s, and they don’t have Mila. #BoycottBeam #BoycottJimBeam

@JimBeam Your spokesmoron alienated the majority of your faithful clientele. Obviously you’re ok with her & the murder UNPlanned Parenthood commits. Stupid move. Enjoy your plummeting sales! #BoycottBeam
