NICOLE KIDMAN IS PLAYING CUPID FOR REESE WITHERSPOON

With two divorces in her rearview mirror, Reese Witherspoon is hoping the third time is the charm. Reese is actively looking to settle down, but is having a hard time meeting eligible man, so she turned to her longtime pal and Big Little Lies costar, Nicole Kidman for help. According to my source, Reese is in awe of Nicole’s happy marriage to country music star Keith Urban. After her first marriage to actor, Ryan Phillippe, and her second to agent, Jim Toth, Reese is hoping this time to land a musician who doesn’t live in Hollywood. She’s smitten with the idea of settling down in Nashville, and is relying on Nicole and Keith to introduce her to some eligible man in the country music industry…

Bad Hair Day Nicole Kidman

NICOLE KIDMAN: BAD HAIR DAY

Nice to see that even Nicole Kidman has an occasional BAD HAIR DAY. Of course Nicole never has a bad FACE day, so a minor hair struggle is no big thing. The Big Little Lies star does change her looks a lot – back and forth from red hair to blonde hair and straight and curly hair. Bad hair day or not- Nicole is always polite to paparazzi. Here she was captured with Keith, visiting her mother in Sydney.

Aaron Sorkin Being the Ricardos I Love Lucy

THANKS TO AARON SORKIN, WE NO LONGER LOVE LUCY

Finally got around to seeing Being the Ricardos and now we understand why the reviews are so varied. It’s all the fault of writer/director Aaron Sorkin. There’s no doubt he’s an intelligent and skillful writer, BUT he lacks empathy, and like most male writers, should NOT be writing female characters. His female characters behave and speak just like men and other women cannot identify with them. Nicole Kidman’s Lucy was impossible to even LIKE, much less love. (Was anybody else bothered by Lucy using the F word so frequently? in 1952, yet!) The film revealed NOTHING about her personality or private life that would make viewers connect with her. The actors in the film did a valiant job, especially with the lines they were given. Sorkin also jammed too many storylines and incidents into “one week” of Lucy and Desi’s life.The film not only made us not love Lucy but it made us wonder if Lucie Arnaz, who approved this film, suffered during her childhood and wanted to punish her mother with this…

Being the Ricardos Nicole Kidman Voice

WHAT’S WRONG WITH THIS “BEING THE RICARDOS” TRAILER?

Only one thing bothered us when we saw this seductive trailer for Being the Ricardos- it spoiled our enthusiasm just a little bit- can you guess what it was?

NICOLE KIDMAN’S VOICE sounds nothing like Lucy!

Being the Ricardos Hair! Lucille Ball Nicole Kidman

NICOLE KIDMAN ACTUALLY LOOKS A LOT LIKE LUCY


Everybody’s been talking about how Nicole Kidman bears little resemblance to Lucille Ball, the character she’s playing in Being the Ricardos. In fact, Nicole is a natural redhead with curly hair – just like Lucille. And she has the same tall model figure that Lucy had. In this photo she’s wearing a wig and we hope it looks real up close. A movie can be totally ruined right from the beginning if a character is wearing an obvious wig. If we spot a wig in a film we cannot get into the story- it’s all about the wig. THAT’s how important hair experts are on a set. We wonder if Nicole will have those strangely drawn on lips that Lucy had…

Aaron Sorkin Being the Ricardos Desi Arnaz I Love Lucy Javier Bardem Lucille Ball Nicole Kidman

CASTING CALL FOR FRED AND ETHEL MERTZ

Nice to hear that Aaron Sorkin has written and is directing a feature film about Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz called Being the Ricardos and it looks like Nicole Kidman and Javier Bardem will be starring. Lucy and Desi filmed 180 episodes (that’s a LOT!) of the hit show I Love Lucy for the six seasons it ran in the early 50’s. It was one of the all-time most successful series on TV, and Aaron’s script deals with one production week of the show in which two devastating events occurred threatening the couple’s careers and their marriage. Interesting that Nicole and Javier are neither American or Cuban. What we want to know is: Who will play Fred and Ethel Mertz? Any suggestions?

Nicole Kidman The Undoing

DON’T MISS NICOLE KIDMAN’S THE UNDOING

We read a few meh reviews on Nicole Kidman’s HBO drama The Undoing so we were REALLY surprised when the first episode pulled us right IN. LOVED it. Better than Big Little Lies. We went back to look at the reviews again and were not surprised to see they were written by men. Maybe this is a story women appreciate more, but we can really identify with Nicole’s New York character and can hardly WAIT for next installment. Hugh Grant plays her questionable husband, who seemed so cool in the beginning. Every week opens with a woozy verson of the old song Dream a Little Dream of Me and it turns out, Nicole is doing the singing in this theme song. Makes sense, Nicole did sing in Moulin Rouge…

Bombshell Charlize Theron Margot Robbie Nicole Kidman Roger Ailes

NICOLE, MARGOT, CHARLIZE: UNITED THEY STAND

This is an exceptional photo of the three very different stars of Bombshell: Nicole Kidman, Margot Robbie, and Charlize Theron. These women are as dissimilar as their apparel, but they had a mutual goal in making this film: telling an important story. This version of the revolting Roger Ailes at Fox News scandal buried the Showtime miniseries with Russell Crowe – probably because the WOMEN were the main characters. Three very accomplished actresses shared the screen time –they all knew it was extremely important to detail exactly what happened at Fox in order to change future behavior. Charlize Theron is the female Christian Bale when it comes to assuming a new look and personality for a role – her metamorphosis into Megyn Kelly is astonishing.

Ansel Elgort Nicole Kidman The Goldfinch

GIVE “THE GOLDFINCH” A CHANCE

The Goldfinch was given negative reviews (mostly by jaded male critics, we presume) that drastically affected its boxoffice this weekend and we are here to defend this exquisite film. Sure, it’s a little too long, but the content more than makes up for it. Just take your time. This film builds very slowly and it sneaks up on the viewer – you find yourself identifying with the main character and literally feeling what he feels. It starts out a little sad and scary, but ends up filled with optimism. A very sensitive, fascinating and plausible story- altogether an satisfying experience. Give it a chance. We walked out feeling like we just read an excellent book…

Hugh Grant Nicole Kidman The Undoing

NICOLE KIDMAN’S PERFECT LIFE EVAPORATES IN “THE UNDOING”

Nicole Kidman is looking particularly gorgeous here as she films the HBO limited series The Undoing with Hugh Grant. We are really looking forward to this story because it’s about a WOMAN with problems. Nicole plays a successful therapist in NYC with a devoted oncologist husband and a young son – she has a perfect life. Suddenly, violent things happen and her husband disappears. She is horrified by shocking revelations when her missing husband’s past is scrutinized. Nicole’s character is upset by the clues she missed, and she is forced to start a whole new life. Kidman is producing and it will be directed by a woman!
