We recently reported that the star of That '70s Show appeared in the Chrysalis Butterfly Ball, where he was accompanied by none other than Demi Moore. There, he told the Associated Press how much he and Moore believed in the organization's thrust, and how they have been supporting it through the years. Aside from Kutcher, the star studded event included stars from hit television shows such as Grey's Anatomy. Aside from this charity event, Kutcher has had a lot on his plate this past few weeks. In fact, the creator of Beauty and the Geek has been very busy with his new big screen offering entitled What Happens in Vegas, where he stars alongside Cameron Diaz.
However, it isn't these endeavors that have gotten the attention of Kutcher fans all over the States. Recently, the actor has sported a scruffy look, which some attributed to a new role he is supposed to play. Apparently, we all got it wrong, because an insider tells In Touch that he grew his facial hair for religious reasons!

While we know Ashton Kutcher for his wacky stunts on Punk’d and That ‘70s Show and his brainchild, Beauty and the Geek, more recently, the actor has tended to some serious matters, including last week’s exclusive Butterfly Ball benefiting Chrysalis, a Los Angeles-based organization which aims to help homeless men and women find jobs and homes as well. Joining Kutcher at the event was Demi Moore, and newly-weds Charlie Sheen and Brooke Mueller.
“We love it, and we really believe in it,” Moore said before the event, the Associated Press reports.

We previously reported about Tommy’s odd analogy of fishing and socializing, and now we’re back to talk about what thoughts went through his mind after completing his stint on Beauty and the Geek. While some might think that he doesn’t fit into the typical geek stereotype, a second look would prove one wrong. Judging by his fishing and socializing, he really is someone quite intellectual and therefore might have some trouble connecting with academically challenged individuals.
Tommy admits that working with Amanda was great. In fact, he says that she reached out to him most of the time, saying, “Sometimes I live in my own little world, and Amanda is much more of a down-to-earth, realistic person, so I think I needed someone like her to keep me grounded and bring out my best in every challenge.”

In the season finale of Beauty and the Geek, we saw the three teams get sliced yet once again, leaving two teams to battle it out to the end. The two teams left were Tommy and Amanda and Chris and Cara, who were all running around the city to take on the last challenge of picking up as much contestants as possible. Chris and Cara came home with four, while Tommy and Amanda returned with five, making them the team to win $250,000.
Now that all that fuss is over, Reality News Online sat down with Tommy Severo to talk about the past season and how he landed a spot in the competition in the first place.

After a season of less-than-satisfying twists thrown at us willy-nilly, we are finally down to the wire on Beauty and the Geek. In tonight's season finale, we will find out which among the final three teams will win a quarter of a million dollars and the chance to call themselves "more than just a beauty and a geek." Three teams remain: Chris and Cara, Tommy and Amanda, and Matt and Leticia. This is quite possibly the last episode of Beauty and the Geek ever, so I hope they don't hold anything back.
The three remaining teams gather in the library to meet Mike Richards. All the couches are gone, and the room is furnished with chairs and curtains. Mike tells them that one of the teams must leave right now, and who goes will be determined by how well each of them knows their partners.

Joe and Tara were sixth couple to be eliminated from this season of Beauty and the Geek. The pair had many ups and downs throughout their time on the show, fighting often and then making up again afterwards. Their often contentious relationship crescendoed until their biggest fight at the Big Bear resort, at which Tara constructed an impassable barrier to separate each person's side of the bed.
Unfortunately, we could not reach Tara to hear her side of things, but Joe was able to take some time to talk to BuddyTV. He shared with us his insight on his relationship with Tara, whom he likes to call "Big Sister," his side of the expectoratory fight he had with Randi, as well as what he's been up to since filming the show. Below, you will find an audiofile and a complete transcript of the interview.

Previously on Beauty and the Geek, the beauties and the geeks hit the road for a winter vacation at Big Bear. Kristina and Jason nearly won the sledding challenge, but in the end, they were the ones who were sent home.
The four teams remaining are Joe and Tara, Chris and Cara, Tommy and Amanda, and Matt and Leticia. They arrive back at the Beauty and the Geek mansion after their trip. Everyone registers varying degrees of shock and happiness to be in the final four. The teams decide to give Jason a Viking funeral. C'mon, people, he didn't die!

What's the difference between a Taylor series and Beauty and the Geek? Beauty and the Geek is finite. Geddit? Geddit?
With only four teams left in the game on Beauty and the Geek, this fifth season is scheduled to conclude on Tuesday, May 13. However, this episode will likely turn out to be the series finale. Sources close to the show's production staff confirm that the CW bigwigs have decided not to renew Beauty and the Geek for a sixth season.
CW executives say that they may reconsider bringing the show back if the producers can come up with a unique twist on the show's geeky guys/beautiful girls format. One possibility that they have discussed is incorporating an age-related element to the show
