Vikings wide receiver Bernard Berrian can thank Will Smith for the touchdown dance he hopes to debut to fans during Sunday’s game against the Arizona Cardinals. Smith was in the Twin Cities on Friday for a premiere of his new movie Seven Pounds; the event served as a fundraiser for Second Harvest Heartland, the Upper Midwest’s largest hunger-relief organization. Smith, who donated 300 turkeys to Second Harvest Heartland during the event, was joined on the red carpet by Berrian, who recently donated $10,000 to Second Harvest Heartland and was responsible for more than $20,000 in community contributions.

Smith choreographed the dance at the movie premiere at the request of Berrian, who wanted to tap Smith’s success as a rapper to achieve a touchdown dance like no other. Should the opportunity present itself, Berrian will perform the dance during the remaining regular season Vikings games to thank Smith for his efforts on behalf of Second Harvest Heartland and to recognize the more than 250,000 children in Minnesota who live in families struggling to put food on their tables each week.

The premiere event generated 2,000 pounds of food and $4,000 in cash donations to Second Harvest Heartland.

Ashton Kutcher apparently hasn’t been getting enough good work lately because he has suddenly been reduced to being an assistant football coach. One of Ashton’s best friends is the head football coach for Harvard-Westlake prep school and he needed some help with the team so Ashton decided to step in and help out.

According to Page Six:

“The team was totally surprised when they showed up for practice and Ashton was there,” said our source. “His best friend is the head coach and asked for his help.”

How stoked are these kids to have Ashton Kutcher as their coach? Apparently now they are getting more support from fans-especially young girls who regularly watch practice sessions to see the gorgeous actor on the field.
