Ashton Kutcher has been hired by Lenovo

Following on from yesterday's news that Microsoft had hired TV presenter Jonathan Ross, laptop and tablet company, Lenovo, has now hired Ashton Kutcher as a Product Engineer.

The first thing on his to do list was to star in a new advert for the Lenovo Yoga tablet:

“This partnership with Lenovo brings together my love of technology and design that makes your life better. I can’t wait to dig in and help Lenovo develop future mobile computing products, starting with the Yoga Tablet,” said Ashton Kutcher. “Lenovo is all about innovation and strong leadership. Entrepreneurship is part of their DNA, and I couldn’t ask for a better fit.”

Ashton is now a part of a growing list of celebrities working for tech companies. Lady GaGa is Polaroid's Creative Director, Alicia Keys is the Global Creative Director for BlackBerry while Will.i.am is a Director of Creative Innovation at Intel.

We don't know how far these job roles really go but Kutcher seems to have an eye for tech. Will.i.am has his own car building company that started up last year called ‘IAMAUTO', he also released an Iphone camera attachment called I.Am+ back in 2012.

KitGuru Says: From starring in movies and TV shows to engineering, the actor is certainly covering his bases.
