Ashton and Demi Live to Tweet Another Day

Couple's private jet makes emergency landing in Vegas after engine overheats

Ashton Kutcher is "happy to be alive." Even more so than usual.

The actor and wife Demi Moore twittered their respective relief Thursday afternoon after their private plane made an emergency landing in Las Vegas.

Which was where they already were, so apparently they hadn't gone far before being forced to turn back.

"my plane just had to do an emergency landing. Engine over heated. fire trucks everywhere. good times," Kutcher wrote shortly after 1:30 p.m. while they waited for the next flight out of Sin City, where he and Moore had attended the premiere of his new film, Spread.

"happy to be alive. lets celebrate. party tonight at Turtle Bay Bar in #NYC. Say 'Spread' at the door for 1/2 off drinks! on me!" the generous thesp wrote afterward.

"Yep it is always an adventure in Vegas emergency landing and all!" added Kutcher's equally Twitter-happy sugar mama.

"Taking off—take two!" Moore, who also posted pics from the scene, wrote a couple of hours ago.

Ashton prefers the term "sugar mama" to "cougar." But that didn't keep him and the missus out of our Cougars 'n' Cradle Robbers gallery.
