In February, rumors were rampant that Nicole Kidman was expecting her second child. Apparently she exhaled while wearing a tight dress. Pregnancy speculation fills an inordinate number of columns in gossip magazines – why, we don’t know. But Nicole was looking quite svelte Sunday morning when she and Keith Urban picked up the newspaper and went to Starbucks in Nashville.

Australia is very proud of it’s successful actors so four of them were honored with stamps in the Australian Legends of the Screen stamp collection. Nicole Kidman, Russell Crowe, Geoffrey Rush, and Cate Blanchett are featured in 55 cent stamps available both in and out of character. Something to aspire to.

We were amused by this photo of Keith Urban making small talk with Lauren Bacall at the premier of his wife Nicole Kidman’s movie Australia – you never know who you’re going to run into at a premier. (Lauren played Nicole’s mother in the movie “Birth” ) Keith is looking especially good – perhaps because he’s taller than usual. Take a look at those high heels on HIM, not her.
Hollywood is disappointed because so far the Anthony Pellicano trial has produced no bombshells. Private investigator Pellicano is accused of raking in millions by spying on Hollywood’s rich and famous, and then blackmailing them by threatening to supply dirt to their rivals. Hillary Clinton allegedly hired Pellicano in 1992 to discredit Monica Lewinsky. Tom Cruise’s lawyer Bert Fields often hired the private eye and he allegedly wiretapped Nicole Kidman’s phones when she and Tom Cruise were divorcing. (Scientologists LOVE this sort of thing.) Since Tom was spying on Nicole before they split up, we were hoping to hear the lurid details that caused him to abruptly file for divorce. We THINK we know what happened, but it would be nice to have it verified in court. It’s speculated that the only way dirt will be slung at this trial is if Pellicano decides to turn on his former clients who have all but abandoned him.

Nicole Kidman has ANNOUNCED that she is pregnant! Big Deal. Everybody knew she was expecting weeks ago but she chose to deny it. Somehow our happiness for her has been spoiled by the fact that she LIED to us. Avoiding the issue is one thing, lying is another.

Nicole Kidman has been admitting that although she dearly loves her husband Keith Urban, her marriage is far from perfect. But she’s determined to hold it together so she showed up to support him on the red carpet at an Australian Music awards show. On the way in she bumped into hot Australian singer Delta Goodrem, who bears a striking resemblance to the murdered actress Sharon Tate from Valley of the Dolls.
We hate to nitpick, but Nicole Kidman has been having some really bad hair days. And she’s always been so immaculately put together in the past! Although Keith doesn’t seem to mind, her locks look damaged and the bleached out white color is jarring- along with her pale skin, it makes one think of albinoism. The long frizzy style is equally unflattering and we can only hope this hairdo is temporary and destined for a movie role. What KIND of role, we can’t imagine.
How things change. Remember in 1998 when Nicole Kidman asked Lisa Marie Presley to stay away from her husband Tom Cruise? They were all Scientologists and Lisa had been turning to Tom for advice and guidance. Lisa has made it known that she’d like to find a man who’s involved in Scientology and Nicole feared she’s getting way too friendly with Tom. Just the year before another Scientologist, Kelly Preston, had to warn Lisa to please stay away from HER husband John Travolta! Nicole decided to nip it in the bud and warned Lisa to cool her friendship with Tom.
Since the Anna Nicole Smith drama started, Hollywood writers have been frantically scribbling to be first with the ultimate script based on her life and death. And don’t think ideas about who should play Anna aren’t already being tossed about. The only thing slowing down the production of Anna’s life story is the fact that there is no end in sight. Things keep coming up. Our whimsical colleague, Simon Doonan of the New York Observer, believes that Nicole Kidman should snatch up the rights to Anna Nicole’s biopic ASAP. He gleefully suggests that if Nic would pack on the pounds to play Anna, it could be her “Raging Bull.” We LOVE that mental picture!
We had no idea that making movies could do terrible things to your hair, but Nicole Kidman and Naomi Watts have had some bad experiences. They claim that the studio people are way too rough on their locks when they change color, blow dry, and style. The constant manipulation to get the perfect look, damaged their fragile hair. They’re both leading ladies in demand these days so they don’t have to put up with broken ends. Awhile back, the two Australian pals joined forces to INSIST that they wear wigs in every movie they make, and it’s become a given. Even if it looks exactly like their natural hair, you can bet it’s fake.
