(Mario Anzuoni/Reuters)Oh hey, Ashton Kutcher.

Ashton Kutcher and Bono will be advising a new fund for TPG Capital, the New York Post reports.

Bono, who is already involved with several TPG-owned companies and who co-founded PE firm Elevation Partners back in 2004, has invested in TPG Growth's new fund.

Kutcher, who revealed his own investment firm, Sound Ventures, last month, will co-invest with TPG Growth via that fund.

The two funds have an agreement to inform one another of big investments they make. Specifically, whenever Sound Ventures invests more than $10 million, it will let TPG Growth know, the Post reported.
