The marines fight for the country and it seems they fight as hard for the right to lovel. It started when a sergeant in the corps in Afghanistan asked Justin Timberlake’s Friends With Benefits co-star, Mila Kunis, via video to the Marine Corps Ball in North Carolina.

Uploading his plea to the Web, Timberlake saw it told the guy he was going to help make his wish come true. The "Sexy Back" singer reportedly convinced Kunis to say yes and accompany the marine as his date. As irony would have it, The Huffington Post reports he’s now being asked to attend to attend the Washington, D.C. ball with a corporeal based in Virginia.

Of course having gotten Kunis to agree means Timberlake has to say yes too. If not, he better watch out because his admirer is the only woman at her base’s Martial Arts Center for Excellence. Plus, she’s using all different kinds of media outlets to help with her goal, from a Facebook page set up to amass support specifically for Timberlake to take her to the ball to a visit to CNN’s “The Situation Room” where she’ll discuss her situation further.

For the budding actor's part, he's expected in another movie, this time a sci-fi flick called In Time.
