Nicole Kidman attended the 12th Annual Costume Designers Guild Awards in Beverly Hills this week, along with third lip, to acknowledge the work of costume designers in films.Nicole was there to pay tribute to Nine's director Rob Marshall, who was awarded the Distinguished Collaborator Award. Even though the movie was a huge flop around the world, someone thought the costumes were pretty special and deserved some credit.
Nicole also took the chance to acknowledge the costume designers who have created the many wigs she has worn in movies, at ceremonies and any other time.

that gave me a laugh, Choice. Many thanks for that. She will never live those wigs down. Must think people never noticed did she?
Like s stone when it was rumored having a tough time getting work after basic instinct, this one too would show up to any envelope opening events...because she has to, to get any exposure she can before the industry closes the opportunity door for good.... (she really looks her role, a mutton, to me in all these PR pictures...no matter how younger her outfits get)

Totally! Nicole turns up to any opening. Just wait, she'll be at the opening of a new supermarket in your area.
OMG! Did you see that choice in footwear?! Turquoise shoes w/a burgundy dress. Those shoes only can be paired w/conflicting pastel shades to seem edgy. No surprise. This one can never get anything right.
I read something interesting in the Celebitchy comments re: this getup. Someone mentions that she has smallish eyes and tries to open them to make them appear wider which results in a neurotic, manic look. Another points out her crooked nostrils as the result of a poor nose tip sculpting job. Glad someone noticed this.
I'll just never understand the comments of some who describe her as "stunning" and "beautiful". That's fitting for Grace Kelly but not Kidman. You've gotta wonder what some of these people look like.
I head that Nicole will be at the grand opening of Macdonalds on the Moon. She will be promoting the new drink named after her: "McFreeze: the new slurpy icy summer drink"
They cant name a meal after her because she only eats lettuce.
Who are her advisors? Do you see her quality actor contemporaries (in 40's, if that's her real age) dabbing in pouting lipping, those semi-boot high heels, lots of facial mutilations, leotard stripping, 5" heels (caused her to be abnormally high), so tight clothing some were fearful of cutting off her tits, hair color metamorphasis from red to blond to platinum blond to brown to red to brown, globally validated poor acting talents, etc. etc. --- and wants to be taken seriously as an actor??? Third Lip is as real as Joan Rivers, Pamela Anderson and all other extreme airheads!
Choice - I was kinda expecting you to comment on the latest news: Granny Freeze has managed to snag a supporting role in the next Adam Sandler & Jennifer Aniston romcom. I know her fans will say that she's being 'risky and dangerous' but I'd say it's more of a risk for Sandler and Aniston to have Kidman in their popcorn movie! Obviously Granny is getting so desperate to be associated with a box office hit, she'll be painting herself blue and begging to be cast as an extra in Avatar II next.
Hi Laura
I had been planning a post on that but decided to wait for definite confirmation. So many times in recent years, word gets out of Kidman doing this and doing that, and it never happens. Just like when she was supposed to be in the Woody Allen film. And also the Danish Girl.
Stay tuned...
Yeah, it seems the "comedy" thing is her next campaign...I've been pointing out, clearly due to being "under new management"...kidman is set on being the new "kween of komedy"...(Ha! I can just hear how her new management hack pitched the deal to kidman..."Stick with me kid(man)...and I'll make you the next jennifer Aniston!") Unfortunately, all he could scrounge up for kidman was a "cameo" in an aniston flick! NOw comes this rumored story...

Nicole Kidman Is Attached to a Female Hitch
"Nicole Kidman is the new Will Smith! Wait, that doesn’t sound right … and yet she’s attached herself to The Wedding Doctor, a project that sounds just like a female Hitch. Vulture has learned that Kidman would play a relationship analyst who advises couples on their interpersonal dynamics before they marry."
...but it is not a "studio" pic...it's just a film being shopped by Relativity Media to the studios...much like rabbit hole...and danish girl...if that ever comes to fruition! So recall this "comedic" campaign first began early this year with her "dancing monkey" duet with the monkey himself, orb! Next a comedic "cameo" in the "cruise/tropic thunder vein... and now this obviously leaked story of a "will smith-like movie pitch! Hell, I wouldnt be surprised if she came out with the intention to do the "lucille ball biopic!"...or a story of how she "changed her sex and did Harpo Marx's biopic!
Maclen - I seriously rolled my eyes last week when I heard about the cameo role. I decided I wasn't going to comment on that until it was confirmed. Just another Kidman project that may or may not see the light of day.
As for the proposed new comedy style, I'd say her new agent was watching TO DIE FOR the other week and then thought "Ta Da, they all liked her in that, I'll cast her in comedies from here on".
Problem is, she can't move her face ... so when she is trying to be funny, you wont be able to see smile lines. She cant honestly expect to try to come across as funny when her face looks like a frozen fish fillet.
Her in comedy…bad. As commented by someone here already, need I repeat it, To Die For (carefully choreographed film of her role, basic acting consisting of close-up facial and reading lines) is one thing, remember Bewitched?! She’d played a self-focused ingénue for Samantha. This limited IQ has no clue playing a character or show personality. I say to do her a favor, give her short vignettes, very limited and carefully choreographed close-facial fleeing screen presence (similar to assigning space-cadet roles for D. Hannah.) Play off from the start her wooden abilities and see-how-I-look focus. Anything more than that, Alan Sandler, you may as well kiss your film off a stinker, she’ll detract your movie plot as not funny, just blah laughable!
Yeah, choice, it looks like inept team kidman is just making it all up as they go along...not much for them to work with now! I'd say eventually, kidman will be just as content to settle for being on any set...whether its sandler's or aniston's...or for omega or another ginger ale ad!
ALL OF YOU ON HERE ARE EXTREMELY JEALOUS. She has proven time and time again that she is funny. She was hilarious in THE HOURS, with that nose. Don't you remember that? The best comedy of 2002.
"She was hilarious in THE HOURS, with that nose."
Yougottabekidding me. Doncha remember? who are you, really. Are you that lame... not for what you wrote, that's given, for wasting air (you're living, aint' ya) & space writing this crap
So, Choice, you were right again. This time about the wigs. Have you seen that Village Voice story before? Could you have imagine how Nicole would have butchered "The Reader"? Kate Winslet luckily took the helm. Who in their right mind would even consider her for the part? Well, Harvey Weinstein (gross) supposedly sleeps w/Gwyneth Paltrow... a lot.
Hi Sickitten
I did a post on THE READER early last year. Kidman definitely would have killed the film. You may be interested to know that Winslet was the actual first choice but had to pull out because of other committments. Kidman was then signed, but I have a strong feeling that the producers really went cold on that idea, and chose to wait until WInslet was available. Kidman then tried to save face by saying she was pregnant anyway and wouldnt be able to do it. I honestly think the producers tossed her contract in the bin because they were just glad to have Winslet back. See link to my 2009 post here:

Sick, kinda suspected that about Harvey & Gwyn when she had turned into an IT girl then to winning an Oscar, had to have a sugar daddy in the industry (it's been rehashed galore about her not deserving it.) Thought he'd move on to something fresher...hard to believe they're still at it. Okay, bk to NK, thanks to, sort of, cruise marraige maybe wasn't subjected to paying her dues...yet her Oscar was awfully suspicious for a film she didn't carry by herself... just observ!
What exactly are people trying to say on here - that Nicole's career has tanked? You are mean bunch. She is the best actress living today. Go and watch her in Nine, she was amazing.
Choice, did you see this?
Selena Gomez, 17, is replacing Nicole Kidman, 42, as the star of upcoming movie "Monte Carlo." But since Kidman is also a producer of the comedy-in-development as well as its former star, the swap can only hurt so much.

Oh yea, all of 10 min of it in Nine...as short as it was, deemed by the critics as once again her performance too stiff. NK Fan, are you from this planet????
Hi Sickitten
Yes heard the news about Nicole being replaced. In actual fact, could never see the film being made with her in it. Lots of titles over the last 3 years supposedly are starring Nicole Kidman and then they never eventuate. Some of these include Need, Dusty Springfield,The Danish Girl, Eucalytpus, and Monte Carlo. She may still have some investment in Monte Carlo, but for all we really know, she was probably happy to step aside this time round. Have a feeling Nicole is wanting time out for awhile. She knows she is unpopular at the moment.
