The Sonny and Cher Hour

As expected, Nicole did not miss out on attending this year's annual G'Day USA Dinner on 16 January. Many Aussie ex-pat celebrities turn up to the event to collect awards and hang out with old mates. Even non-Aussies like John Travolta turn up regularly for the event.

Nicole was not up for an award. However, she was not going to miss out on being in the papers, so went on stage with husband Keith to sing a tune, and do a little dance. People mistakingly thought they were watching The Sonny and Cher Hour because Nicole was wearing her long hair extensions. At least Cher's were real. The two sang a dedication (to the tune of Down Under), for their mate Simon Baker. Simon picked up an award for The Mentalist.

Nicole promised that her duet with Keith was a one-off. Somehow we doubt that. As her film career continues to decline, singing with Keith may be the only way to get some sort of publicity. Even bad publicity is considered better than nothing!

I felt sick looking at those photos. How desperate is she. And him for that matter. Did Simon agree to this?

Yes, this is a very cringe worthy spectacle. You'd expect this level of performance at a grade school talent show! Obviously, kidman's idea of "letting loose" and letting her hair (extensions") down and clearly, kidman's attemped answer to bullock's and streep's mock "passive aggressive kiss" on the BcCA's the night before. And also obvious, the orb has no qualms over looking as ridiculous as kidman at this point.

God you people are boring, this was funny and clever and they both look like they were having a blast. Just as well the audience wasn't full of wowsers like you lot.
Nicole has known Rebecca since they were both teenagers and she is godmother to one of their children so of course they asked her to present the award to him.
Lighten up and face the facts that your fantasy of what their world is like has little to do with the reality.

She not only looked ridiculous herself, but brought him to her level. He looked like a total goop with her. Nauseating.

If we are so boring, why visit the Blog? Why not hang out with your friends over at NKU, they are all brainwashed too.

You may be interested to know that Simon Baker is the so called friend of Nicole's who reportedly once said some unkind words about her career as it started to nose-dive. We know she's known Rebecca Rig for years. That's why you never see them in photos together.

Anon 12:05 - or are you really Nicole Kidman? Why are you defending this famewhore? I saw the video, and she was acting like an idiot dancing around like a little girl. She is an embarrassment to Australia, cant you see that. FOOL!

Who is this person, the over plastic surgeried freak? This is yet another freakish spectacle side of her we'd come to expect. Seems to have a handful of persona she "plays" from time to time, as opp to real actors with characters, this one is from "Practical Magic" over a decade ago.... The orb does not appear to have the (music) situation under control...hasn't fully come to terms with himself what's really going on, being guided by the talentless & desperate has-been She's so pathetic....

This is an issue of respect, or the lack of respect for her husband's career. She's turning it into a joke (like hers) or a circus. He can't be liking or enjoying this...needs to wake up...poor guy.

Clearly this makes the orb look just as moronic and as ridiculous as the dancing monkey...so it's apt that orb is the king of monkeyland! The only thing missing is kidman throwing her feces at the audience...which this skit certainly reaked of! It's not enough kidman and orb are utter failures in their careers...they also want to appear to be shameless hacks as well.

There is something wrong with this latent exhibitionist...maybe resonding to that "sexless" claim by men media declaration, but here's more: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/01/17/nicole-kidman-has-a-nippl_n_426613.html
Need a reminder...from a 40-somthing lady. Wow. Guess you resort to anything to get a bit more attention....

Nicole is displaying infantile behaviour because she feels threatened by her husband career: While her career is in the dumps and her mid-life crisis shows no sign of abating - she is acting out. Regressing to a mental age of between 8-11 she feels that she can attract attention to herself by behaving in this way. The jumping around and jerky movements are really anger and frustration directed at her husband. They reveal signs of pent-up hostility and a severe lack of rhythm.

Keith doesn't look too happy. It looks like he is trying to do his part seriously and she is just joking around. It almost looks like he is distancing himself from her or ignoring what she is doing. He doesn't seem to be a part of it.
