Celebrities speaking languages

Many successful people speak various languages. Not only does it help in their job, it also opens the door to understanding different cultures and enjoying other countries much deeper.
And if that was not enough yet: studies have been showing that speaking several languages is one of the best exercises your brain can get. Even up to postponing the onset of Alzheimer's by 4 to 5 years.

Born in the now-Ukrainian city Czernowitz, Mila Kunis speaks fluent Russian, still speaking it at home with her grandparents and parents. She explains that, to her, the language is full of emotion and passion. One of the most interesting discoveries that her bilingualism has led her to, is the way that translators reformulate questions for her in interviews, either improving, or missing, the sense of the question. Ever mischevious, she also admits to waiting until the end of the journey to tell her drivers that she understands everything that they are saying about her!
