Nicole's grande nuisance
Posted: 1:16 AM, September 25, 2009

IN line at Starbucks on Spring Street at Varick this week, a redhead with wet hair and jeans got to the counter. The female cashier loudly proclaimed, "You know who you look like -- that lady who used to be married to Tom Cruise. What's her name?" The manager, making the coffee, suggested, "Nicole Kidman?" "That's it, you look just like Nicole Kidman: tall, the blue eyes, the hair . . . anyone ever tell you that?" The redhead, clearly annoyed, quietly ordered her coffee with a discernible Australian accent.

Ha! Yeah, just read this a while ago and had a big chuckle! And...from Murdoch's post no less...that makes it even more hi-larious. And it seems due to her constant shilling of her former marriage...even after 8 years now, she is still, "that lady who used to be married to tom cruise." What!? No one noticed those blatant and obvious "canooding" photo ops with... what's his face...only from a few weeks ago at the US Open? How's that "Canadian Family Tour" up north working out for inept team "kidban?" I also got a kick out of this pickup article...

http://www.examiner.com/x-1994-LA-Celebrity-Headlines-Examiner~y2009m9d25-My-name-is-Nicole-Kidman-and-Im-important

My name is Nicole Kidman and I'm important!

(...as kidman exited the starbucks with coffee in hand and with a big...harrumph!!)

cricket said...

LMAO Ha Ha that's great. I bet that burned the heck out of her bony ass. I would have loved to have seen the expression on her face. If she could actally make an expression that is.

Choice said...

Too funny! Love it. Would have been better if the cashier had added that while she looked like Kidman, she looked much older! Imagine the fight she would have had on her hands then.

A440 said...

One has to wonder what La Kidman was "clearly annoyed" at. Was it because she wasn't identified immediately? (How dare these peons not recognize her.)

Or that she IS known as the broad Cruise happily chucked away?

I also wonder how she would have reacted had she been greeted with peals of "Well, hello, Mrs. Urban!" My guess is that she would be none-too-thrilled.

hoosierlady said...

Maybe the reason she can come and go as she pleases in TN is because NO ONE CARES.?

maclen said...

Well, surely as Ive mentioned before, kidman's heavily "procedured" face, and what with special "CGI effects" developed to help with her "emoting" in her last couple of films...she no doubt gets that alot...or as hoosier suggests, she doesnt get noticed at all. Well, of course, outside of her "arranged" photo ops she can go incognito very easily. But of course, that wouldnt help her very much when it comes time to shill her next film, and as she got in her "important dinner" photo op in...she was "off the clock... and therefore got that diss in between ops! And speaking of that "dinner" photo op in NY...seems kidman has already blown the coup of cletus's heavily promoted "Canadian Family
Tour"...after showing up on day 5 in Edmonton for a few public photo ops... only a day later she is in NY at the "important women" dinner...now reports are she was at the streisand concert last night in Greenwich village as the cletus returned to play after a day off, in winnepeg, on the same night! But that matches up with cletus' admitting kidman and Co have only been to "a couple of his shows"... and kidman never intends to be "out on tour" with the orb for more that a couple of days for "appearences" and to get in a few photo ops. Ha! But then who is surprised that kidman would prefer to see streisand in concert rather than the cletus, anyways? And she would most definately rather hobnob with the likes of former Bill Clinton and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Chelsea Clinton, and Sarah Jessica Parker at the streisand show than with cletus and his fawning fans, right?

Maclen, your fact-finding skills are sorely lacking. There are lots of pictures of Nicole at Keith's Calgary show.

Of course you would pretend not to have seen them because "you can't handle the truth"!

maclen said...

Ah yes! All of the "indisputable" photographic proof that kidman was in Calgary! Well, apparently, a "consuelo"...a fansie over at NKU submitted photos of kidman at the "Calgary show"...yet laughably, the photos werent posted for 4 days after the Calgary shows...(what up consuelo? still using film cameras? Never heard of one hour developing!) And in fact, also just as laughable, they were posted the day AFTER the photo's of kidman in edmonton came out in the calgary sun...

http://www.calgarysun.com/entertainment/celebrities/2009/09/22/11045681-sun.html


Kidman and Urban spotted near hotel


...oh yes, those are DEFINATELY photos of kidman at the "calgary shows"...no way on earth they could be of the "Edmonton show" from the day before!
Oh yes, also definate proof kidman was in calgary is the "photos" of kidman at the Calgary zoo with the "fam"...made known from cletus himself on the calgary stage...but unfortunately...there aint no pics! Strange how not even the NKUsers...what with their creepy "kidman stalker twit sightings,"... or any other kidman fansie site for that matter, have any other "supposed" photos of kidman in Calgary... besides those photos of kidman sitting in front of a stage submitted by a "consuelo" at the NKUsers site...but of what stage...hell, it could be in Sibera for all we can tell, huh?! Well, just as laughable, as I mentioned, kidman has dumped the cletus canadian tour for streisand anyways, guess the shine wore off on the cletus bandwagon pretty quick, huh?

maclen said...

...so, just to follow-up... and conclude on this whole sham of the orb's "Canadian Family Tour...pre publicized and ridiculously pandered to by the delusionally pathetic cletus in an attempt to make it "appear" to be a "family affair". This Canadian juant will include 12 shows, spanning from Sept 16 and concluding in Vancouver on Oct 30. As Ive already mentioned, kidman is in NY...having attended the streisand show on the 26th... that day the cletus was performing in winnepeg. And yes, there is "photographic proof!" that kidman was in fact at the streisand gig...and in fact, courtesy of those very resourceful NKUsers...

http://www.gettyimages.com/Search/Search.aspx?EventId=91170070&EditorialProduct=Entertainment#

...and of course there are the photos of kidman at that "Important Womens" dinner the day before...

http://justjared.buzznet.com/2009/09/25/nicole-kidman-naomi-watts-important-dinner/

...notice how easy it is to place kidman at a certain place with corraborating photos the past few days...yet...in the first 11 days of the orbs "Canadian Family Tour" so far, those corroborating photos are very very rare to come by. In fact there seems to be only one day of corroborating photos of kidman in
Canada...those Edmonton photos on the 21st of Sept. ( and no less, it's a "precious first baby steps" photo op to boot!) The ever resourceful NKusers had them posted...the very next day! That Calgary sun story I posted earlier was also posted on the next day...on the 22nd...So basically, based on the "corroborating" evidence, kidman has been to only one show of the orbs! And seeing that the orb concludes the tour on the 3rd of October, only 3 days to go...I'll bet it will be her only show... and last show as well. After the last show in canada...the orb next appears in Albany NY...where he will no doubt have to track her down and report for the next arranged photo op with the already new york chillin' kidman...

hoosierlady said...

Between the Urbans in Who and the Paisleys in People it seems to be the battle of the babies, huh?

A440 said...

What's she doing in NYC anyway? ...early promo for Nine?

I find it interesting that she's tied up in NYC while he's on the West Coast..and flying back to her most of the time.

He came to NYC for ONE DAY. And then returned to the Coast again. We've yet to see her do that, at any time, for any reason, during the entirety of this "marriage."

Astonishing.

A440 said...

I too saw the 'baby step photos." And noted how Kidman was given all the credit while Keith was standing right there, too.

Anyhoo, the video of them coming out of some hotel -- the Macdonald? -- having just finished lunch. They decided to giggle their way to an SUV. Was that the 21st also, or another day? Where was that taken?

Keith Urban and wife Nicole Kidman leave posh hotel to explore Edmonton

...(by the way...notice the photo of kidmans "wet hair" look, as described by the later starbucks "lady who used to be married to cruise...what's your face?" diss story!) There are no "other" photos of kidman in Canada other than these few series of pics or videos, all seemingly from the 21st. As I noted on my previous comment...the orbs first canadian gig was on the 16th...and there is nothing on kidman...or photos of kidman in canada...and not until orb "mentioned" kidman was "in the house"...yet never seen... at the first calgary show on the 18th, did the fansies stalker twits even attempt to find photos of kidman in Canada... and for at least 4 days, no photos popped up until the "edmonton" photos of the 21st posted on the 22nd...and as I mentioned before...orbs canadian gigs last till oct 3rd...(that's 6 days to go...not the 3 more days I mistakenly said earlier!) Yet even with the extra days in canada, my guess is still, no more photos of kidman at the "Canadian Family Tour!"

Anonymous said...

Once again, Maclen, your very INEPT fact-finding and analytical skills are quite laughable. You just “can’t handle the truth” so you simply chose to ignore what Keith said to a Canadian DJ in an interview: that Nic and Sunday will join him in Calgary and Edmonton. (not the whole Canadian tour, Maclen!) And indeed, NK and Sunday were in both cities with him.

So what if a fan posted her pictures of NK “four days” after the show? Unlike you and your other cohorts, some people DO have a life, and posting pictures to suit YOUR timetable is not their priority. Duh! As a matter of fact, some fans do post their pictures/videos even much later than that. This fan just posted a video taken 6 weeks ago: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_9yMshuVkb4

So, while you are looking all over the ‘net for any available Nic photos or news for you to pick apart, why not treat yourself to this interview of Brad “Is He Still a Guy” Paisley talking about how Nashville is not good enough for him and his Hollywood actress wife that they have to go to LA just to do some shopping, watch indie movies, eat some decent food, and go jogging away from the “Nashville air”.

Penelope Cruz to Be on Vanity Fair’s November Cover

...so, penn cruz is to be the "face" of the upcoming musical "Nine." So, not only did cruz replace kidman in the heart of fellow ex cruise...now she replaces kidman...that former...and has-been "style" icon in the hearts of vanity fair? Clearly even weinstein has to give in to the fact that kidman is the kiss of death for any film...and that it is the best move to limit kidman's role in the film to that 10 to 15 minutes! At that length, the odds are very likely that audience members simply going for a bathroom break...or on a run on jujubees or nachos may very well even miss her on screen! Smart move, weinco! Slumming it in her weepy flicks and getting replaced by cruz in the eyes of the shilling style magazine demographic...it's quite a fall from those heady days of awards noms and the glamour shots!

So where exactly is Brad's interview, Sonora? You were quick to post a YouTube link for Keith, but somehow forgot to post a Brad link. How'd that happen, I wonder.

Duh!

As usual, the INEPTness of folks like you and Team Maclen are quite telling. Check again on who posted that YouTube link. I don't even have a YouTube account, let alone post a video clip there!

"hoosierlady said...

LMAO! You have been doing nothing but that month after month after month! That's so naive and silly to even compare Brad's totally staged PR spread in People magazine where he dragged out his family to pose for the publicity shots, as contrasted with those in WHO magazine which used paparazzi shots of the Urbans. Furthermore, People magazine is a U.S. publication readily available at checkout counters of retail outlets such as grocery stores, bookstores, etc.. That has a direct impact on the voting members of the CMAs. WHO is an Aussie publication which is extremely hard to find in the U.S. As such, it has no impact on the CMA voting members at all. Exercise your "analytical" skills, hoosie.

maclen said...

Ha! Yes, A440, and I was wondering where the link to the "Canadian interview" that conviently explains it all!
So, let's summarize...

1.)...when cletus mentions "kidman is in the house, yo!" and "we went to the zoo today, Y'all" in calgary show #1 on sept 18...posted on NKU next day, sept 19...

http://www.nicolekidmanunited.invisionzone.com/index.php?showtopic=11945&st=100

"Sep 19 2009, 01:39 PM
keith must have mentioned Nic is at the concert.
Nicole kidman is here and they were at the zoo all day. damn it
5 minutes ago from mobile web"

2.)...when cletus again mentions "kidman in the house...ditto" and announces a "special guest" and shows a video of baby sunri on jumbotron to cheering fans, at second calgary show on sept 19...posted on NKU sept 20...the next day...

http://www.nicolekidmanunited.invisionzone.com/index.php?showtopic=11945&st=100

"Sep 20 2009, 06:27 PM
At Keith's concert in Calgary tonight, right after he finished OIAL, he mentioned that Nicole "is here tonight". Then he said "we also had a special guest this afternoon and we'd like to show you that now". And beautiful Sunday Rose was shown on the screen! Awww!!! You can even see her "pointing". Keith was just bursting with pride and joy!!!"

3.)...when kidman actually shows up in edmonton on sept 21 and there is a story in the calgary sun ...the story is posted at NKU on sept 22...the next day...

Sep 22 2009, 11:25 PM
"Kidman and Urban spotted near hotel

Are you kidding? Funny - the only pictures I've seen of Brad and his family are in PEOPLE. I can't open up every tabloid and see a picture of Kim carrying around a stressed looking child, as I can with NK.

Of course there is a publicity spin to every picture that is in the press. That doesn't just apply to a lovely family spread in PEOPLE, but it also applies to every magazine that sports NK's face on the cover. They all have an image to portray. Brad is no different than NK or Keith for that matter, except he doesn't go out of his way to ensure he's the subject of paparazzi photos and in every tabloid on the stands.

NK has used the paparazzi to serve the purpose of publicizing how maternal and wonderful she is, through Sunday Rose. This is an image that she has wanted to portray and she's used that baby over and over. Mission accomplished. It's the child ... her own child...that she's yearned for for years...the one that you only see with Mommy from time to time. After being in Edmonton- she was out every night last week to the dinner, U2 show, Babs exclusive concert. She'd been out with Keith one night. Sunday seems to be an after thought, except as a valued PR tool.

Sadly, we've never seen the poor little girl smile ONCE. Not ONCE in the dozens of photos that are now out there. If you have one, please provide a link.

Every celebrity uses the press to create an image and sell themselves. That's nothing to be ashamed of...it's the way it's done.

NK...no, she pretends to be "better" than that ... she didn't "sell" the pics to the highest bidder for charity because she couldn't get as much money for Sunday's picture as Angelina was going to get for the twins. So...no picture of Sunday. The result...she created a feeding frenzie amongst the paparazzi to get a picture of the baby. They even called into the radio in Oz to beg them not to take pictures of the dear little "thing" cause it scares her. How effective is it to advise the paparazzi that you're in the area, planning to tour about, but don't want any pictures taken?

Meanwhile, if they'd just released a photo of their baby to the press, the thirst to get that first shot (and then, 2nd 3rd and on) would have been quenched.

I am not convinced that any of the pictures of Sunday have much to do with Keith. He's only been photographed carrying her once ... NK makes sure she's the parent in the pictures at all times. Every picture we see of NK with Sunday is to serve her purposes of getting attention...keeping her name and face in the press so that when she gets that next big role (in the movie that doesn't flop) she won't have been forgotten.

Ha! Again, INEPT Team Maclen, your "fact-finding" is sorely lacking! You missed the video clip showing NK was at the Calgary show. :)

I never said Brad's interview was a "Canadian interview". Both Maclen and A440 are just too INEPT and lazy to find the actual article. How convenient that you don't seem to have problems finding the NK articles but seem to have problems locating a Brad article. tsk tsk tsk.... your INEPTness is glaring!

...so...as the orb's "Canadian Family Tour" winds down...not with a bang...apparently...but with a wimper, and the poor fansies will surely NOT get another photo op of kidman on this canadian tour! (sorry creepy kidman sighting twits!) For kidman jumped that ship 8 days ago and took it on the lam to NY...and I am most surely calling out the cletus on this pathetic PR BS. Not very hard to figure on the orb's transparent and obvious tactic...embarrassed by having to admit kidman and co. have been to his shows only "a couple of times" in this canadian tour swing PR interview...

"Have they been coming out on the road with you?

Yeah, they've been out a couple of times. And I think, in Canada, that will be the case. Because it's not as easy for me to fly back to Nashville on a day off."

...the cletus felt the need to "manufacture" kidman's attendance "a couple of times"... when by all corroborating instances it was only one show... on her only one day in canada! And as it is patently obvious...his cd is dying in the US...so...it's off to Canada to save poor ol' cletus' rep! And, rather coincidently, after canada...the orb is off to...guess where? Yes, he finishes off his US tour in NY...where kidman has been chillin' out for the past 8 days..."Run home sonny...mommies waiting for you in NY!"...and you better go straight there...mommy don't like having to wait on you!

Firstly, let me apologize sincerely for the delay in responding to you. My only defense is that of the employed, I just got home from work. I am gainfully employed, my IQ is well above average, and I do not keep mice for pets.

Good grief, all I said was between the two of them it was "battle of the babies". That is what it looks like, it is absolutely ridiculous. Almost as ridiculous as those three sisters that have that show for no reason. I said absoulutely NOTHING about CMA's. I do not even know when the awards are. I do not listen to country music. I like Tom Petty, Eric Clapton, the list goes on from there.

Now, if I may,

Listen, loser, it's HOOSIER, as in Hurrin' Hoosiers, IU Hoosiers, Indiana Hoosiers, one of the fifty states. It came from Indiana folklore believed to have been a greeting back in pioneer days when someone banged on the cabin door, with our funky accent the occupant would yell "who's there?" and it sounded like "Hoosier". We are smart, witty, sarcastic, we grow corn, soybeans, milo and just about anything else you might want to eat. You can stand in the middle of our capital, Indianapolis, and still only be a few miles from the country. We are bordered by Michigan on the north, Illinois on the west, Ohio on the east and Kentucky on the south. To quote someone out of context, "our women are strong, our men, good looking and our children are above average".

One more time, Sonora, (I have an aunt by that name, and she too is a Hoosier), I am here because I enjoy watching the NK show, if you do not like my drivel, stop reading it.

3 dogs, 1 cat, and again no mice. Vermin thick where you're from?

Well well well, I guess the orb CAN be made to fly back to Nashville on his day off when "someone" gets the inkling! So if this is true...(and it is posted by the NKusers, so you never know)...doesnt cletus have a show back in canada on sept 30th? POor ol' cletus...can never say anything on the record...or he'll be made to look like a wavering bull being pulled around by the ring on his nose!

And as was just highlighted by my last comment...I'm always one step...and a few thoughts ahead of them!

Ha! INEPT Team Maclen... you have proven yet again that your "fact-finding" skills are woefully deficient! Keith's last show in Winnipeg was Sept. 27 and his next one is not until Oct. 1 (in London, Canada). So there is absolutely no inconsistency between that KU quote you posted and what KU and NK are doing in reality.

As usual, you simply "can't handle the truth"!

Anonymous said...

That's right, just "move on" because "you can't handle the truth"!

So, INEPT Team Maclen, what are you trying to "prove" by citing this KU quote from a recent interview: "Yeah, they've been out a couple of times. And I think, in Canada, that will be the case. Because it's not as easy for me to fly back to Nashville on a day off."?

If you are not so INEPT, Team Maclen, you would have noticed that Keith has 3 days off between his Winnipeg show (Sept. 27) and his next one in London, Canada (Oct. 1).

And note INEPT Team Maclen: KU never said he would not fly back to Nashville on a day off, just that it’s not as easy.

maclen said...

So, got my caffeine fix...and went over to NK's Journey to check out Choice's top ten most staged kidman moments...that is quite a list..and certainly just the tip of the iceberg! I voted for the Sydney children hospital exploitation to shill her films. KIdman is a crass exploitating sleaze to use those sick kids to promote her shoddy films...she could care less for those kids if she didnt have a film to plug...and she usually does.
So, cletus is back in Nashville, huh? Some of the fansies are all abuzz and giddy...he must be there to plan out his Opry "Brownnose the country community" benefit...no doubt scheduled conviently during the heated CMA noms voting! And yes apparently kidman tore herself...and cletus off his "Canadian Family Tour"... from the NY "social scene! Kidman no doubt wants to make sure she gets her seating at the "benefit" set front and center...and to get her camera "blocking" set and arrange her "camera shots"...(she doesnt want to get caught snoozing at this one eh?) Well, cletus' cd has already dropped off the top 50 on the charts...currently at #59 with only just over 500k cds sold...and he will probably not even make it to the 1 mil count as I certainly said he would be "lucky" to reach! Cletus has even "underperformed" my minimun expectations! So this opry benefit is all he has, and of course a good showing at the CMA's...and all they are at this point is just two more opportunities for pointless photo ops for kidman and her dead career!

Anonymous said...

tsk tsk tsk... Maclen! "Opry benefit"?

That just shows you know NOTHING about country music to confuse the Opry with the Country Music Hall of Fame! You proved yet again how INEPT you are and how woefully lacking in "fact-finding" skills!

maclen said...

So..now the question is...does cletus return to finish off his "Canadian Family Tour" minus kidman and co. in tow? Will the "creepy kidman sightings twits" even bother to check on it...considering those creepy sighting twits were never able to find a photo of kidman at calgary...or anywhere else for that matter...being that she only gave her one photo op for the entire "Canadian Family Tour" on the 21st? And so, what up with kidmans supposed next weepy indie flick? From what I can recall, the woodman replaced kidman when she "dropped out" (or more realistically when he passed on kidman for the role!) in about 2 weeks... well theron dropped out a week ago...can they even find another star name willing to commit career suicide in a dreary kidman flick? OR will they settle for a another d-list actress with about as much audience attraction as kidman herself? There is still time in between the Opry benefit and kidman's minor role in Nine to fill with her feeble photo ops...so stay tuned peeps!

Choice said...

I'd be happy to take Theron's place if they can't find anyone else. My only stipulations are that I want $16 million too and more screen time than Granny.

maclen said...

...ps...

so, speaking of cletus' finishing off his "Canadian Family Tour"...I previously had wondered why the orb was so eager to cowtow to the canadian crowds by overly manufacturing that kidman was in calgary and that they had even gone out earlier to their zoo and then even dragging out a video of kidman's...and now, cletus' poor little PR baby to the cheering canadian crowds...when it's pretty clear there is no proof whatsoever that kidman or the pr baby were even in town! Well, then I checked the canadian country charts and noted that cletus' cd, unlike in the US, is actually still slowly climbing the charts in canada. He was at #8 last week, while not surprisingly, taylor swift is in #2...

http://jam.canoe.ca/Music/Charts/COUNTRY.html

...so I was just curious how the orbs cd was doing on the overall "Albums" charts...and unsurprisingly, the orbs cd is doing as horrendously on the canadian charts as he is on the US charts...he's #59 in the US and #58 in canada! (btw...swift's cd is at #15 on this album chart)

http://jam.canoe.ca/Music/Charts/ALBUMS.html

...and in fact...on a personal note, I'm pretty impressed by my favs, the beatles having a total of 8 cds in the canadian top 50...(and rather smugly very satisfied that they have 9 cds higher than orbs cd at #58!)
So it will be interesting to see just how much help the orb's shameless and transparent PR BS-ing and manipulating is gonna help on these canadian charts? Is it gonna be worth his selling his soul and lowering himself to the shabby and tawdry level of the PR BS-ing of kidman?!

"I'd be happy to take Theron's place if they can't find anyone else. My only stipulations are that I want $16 million too and more screen time than Granny."

Ha! Well, laughingly choice, I seriously believe the entire cost of this kidman dreck of a film will be about half of $16 mil! As I wonder if kidman even has the pull to get this one made...recall, kidman was very lucky to get Rabbit Hole done... lucky in that Rabbit Hole began life over at Fox Searchlight...where of course kidman became attached back in 07 to star and produce it herself for fox...but murdochs Fox passed on financing or distribution, and kidman had to hoodwink a couple of obscure financiers...but the very desperate kidman needed something to cling to for another movie role, and after Australia fizzled at the box office she therefore clung to this film despite FS passing. And surely all the legwork...script development...rewrites etc... were already taken care of over at Fox searchlight. But it is very different with Danish Girl... which began life as a "kidman production"

http://login.vnuemedia.com/hr/login/login_subscribe.jsp?id=GRDpIQKLSkwdwjzEOzAruaPil51%2BAr0xvP7D3b2TqMmGQ0XbgKHG6HNKFY4LP1OZbHRv%2BiPQTtyu%0AgIJWDs55XWCgZkw75BH2101bBV7J9hi0No5vUg6zS7ZED18OSvG6mpxsbQ%2BFgICyQIZJvX6%2BKK8i%0AMebJkd9p1hI32Uj3AJDPX8HpBBmGuJBlpg0HrGhd

...and of course, just like rabbit hole, will have 5... count em' 5 producers...

The producers, no strangers to daring indie fare, are Gail Mutrux ("Kinsey"), Anne Harrison ("Two Family House"), Linda Reisman ("Affliction"), Kidman and the head of her Fox-based Blossom Films shingle, Per Saari.

...yes sir...were talking "amateur hour" her folks for Danish girl... (half of rabbit holes credits, for instance, will be reserved for the boatload of "producers!" But as i mentioned, RH was produced by kidman's blossom company...which may be based at murdoch's fox studio... but Fox will not distribute this film. This film has no distributor. It's hoping to sell on the film festival circuit! Now kidman is trying to get another indie flick off the ground from her production company, danish girl. Now the question is, can she? Like I constantly point out, this is quite a comedown for kidman, who it is quite clear now, cannot find another mainstream film, let alone another $16 million film role!

maclen said...

...ps...

..ah yes, here...how desperate is kidman for work in an industry she is now a failure in? How low of a paycheck will she take now...how rinky dink will she now endure to be in another film?

http://www.nytimes.com/2009/08/30/movies/30ryzi.html

Star Power Glows Behind the Scenes

(...uh..."star power?"...here are the specifics...from the article:)

"No, Ms. Kidman doesn’t come to Queens often. But she gladly spent a few weeks around the borough filming “Rabbit Hole,” an adaptation of David Lindsay-Abaire’s Pulitzer prize-winning drama about a fraying family.

(...nah, wouldnt be caught dead in Queens...but she needs work, dudes...lay off!)

"She took on another demanding new role as well, as a producer of the movie, the first from her production company, Blossom Films. With a modest budget of less than $10 million, a brisk 28-day shoot, a surprising director in John Cameron Mitchell, few frills (no trailers for the stars) and many interns, “Rabbit Hole” is more like an indie than a Hollywood production."

(...dont try to sugar coat it, dude...it's strickly amatuer hour.. we know...say it...say it!)

"Make no mistake: it was Ms. Kidman’s wattage that got it made, and quickly. But it does not yet have distribution."

(No dude, murdoch's Fox searchlight got it made...kidman just ran with the scrapes..but then Fox "disowned it"...hence NO DISTRIBUTION!)


"But Ms. Kidman said Mr. Mitchell hardly needed to pitch her to get the job. “He already had it,” even before the phone call when he told her his story, she said. “Talking to someone, I don’t think words and talking is ultimately the way that you choose to do a piece,” she added over a cappuccino in the back of the set. “It’s all based on a sensation, on an instinct. That’s what my whole life’s been based on, a gut instinct. And either it goes way off and it’s something else, or it’s exactly what I thought it would be, or it’s way more.”

(...errr...WHAT? Its something way off...and then something else...or its exactly what you thought it would be..or its way more? Oh, I get it now...your talking about your lip injections...yeah they really are something else!)

Her instincts have not always served her well lately. Ms. Kidman’s last three big-budget films, “Australia,” “The Golden Compass” and “The Invasion” were box-office disappointments, and an auteur-directed indie, Noah Baumbach’s “Margot at the Wedding,” was a moderate success at best. So while her red-carpet appeal is undiminished (her life in Nashville with her husband, the country star Keith Urban, and their daughter, Sunday Rose, is still tabloid worthy), her big-screen clout may be."

(...well, finally, reality enters the picture..enter stage left...the shilling was pretty thick up to this point dude..bring it home....)

“When I first responded to it, it was because I read it, and it was about grief, which fascinates me,” she said. “Loss and love seem to be themes that run through my work.” This film is about “a marriage and the way that people fuse through pain, that you can either be pulled apart or you can come together.

(....oh oh...her "cruise connection fixation" is showing again...damn girl didnt you just get dissed in starbucks as cruises ex? You were "werent you married to tom cruise kidman!)

"That may be true as an actor, but as a producer, doesn’t she want her films to be commercially successful? Ms. Kidman dismissed the question.
“Films are so ephemeral,” she said. “You can have all of the components and still miss horribly. That’s the beauty of art.”


(...ah yes...the story of her dead movie career...the reason kidman is a hollywood failure...she thinks failure is beautiful! In her own little shallow and dimwitted mind...she's actually a huge success! which is why I predict she will be a failure as a producer as she was as an actor..._

Hi Maclen and Urban Myths

The funniest comment arrived at my Blog today. The last line really made me laugh i.e. "Kidman is still one of the biggest star in the world".

Which rock have these people been hiding under?


Here is the full comment:

"Thank you, guys. You know, for always discussing La Kidman. Even if it's all hate, it means people are not indifferent to her. The REAL FAME RETARDANT. That's very important for an actress esp. for her age (over 40).......the expiration period. One more thing, love her or hate her, Kidman is still one of biggest star in the world. Regards from Shanghai and Mla"

I saw that as I was drinking my first cup of coffee. Kind of set the stage for my day.

Hey Maclen,

How's your heart?

Hi Maclen and Urban Myths
"The funniest comment arrived at my Blog today. The last line really made me laugh i.e. "Kidman is still one of the biggest star in the world"."

Yes, choice, obviously very dedicated fans...and again, just personal opinion in the face of the facts. And just like the kidman quote from the NYtimes article I posted above...

“Films are so ephemeral,” she said. “You can have all of the components and still miss horribly. That’s the beauty of art.”

...kidman obviously has her own justifications and has come to terms with her failure...its ok with her...it's "beautiful".

hoosierlady said...
"Hey Maclen,
How's your heart?"

Ha! That's a pretty unusual start for a conversation! MY "heart" is doing ok, hoosier...how's your liver? OK, so let me give your very "cryptic" question a go...I realize you've had past doubts about your involvement with this blog...the criticism of a couple of celebs...how does your involvement affect the karma of the universe...are you simply being a part of the problem that you feel may be a problem? Well, all I can say is I have no doubts or second guessing of my involvment...it's simply stating opinions. Now if I've once again misinterpreted your very random question, let me know...and if you were simply inquiring about my "coronary health" I thank you!

It's easy to be so cavalier with other people's money. As a producer or exec producer, she's putting up NONE of her own funds. I wonder if she'd mouth her "the beauty of art" claptrap if she had to answer to investors or stockholders as to where their money went.

She's very good at being self-indulgent.

Keith Urban to play Times Union Center

Nicole and Keith were sitting on a park bench, and out of the blue Keith asked: "How is your heart?"
Nicole answered: "It's open."


HA! ...and dont forget to stay tuned to next week's episode of "MY heart is like a 24 hour convinience store...Always open!"... playing on the "pablum and cletus channel"...

...boy, hoosier, and you got all serious and philisophical...and junk! Now it was my turn to spit-take my coffee onto my computer screen! That made my whole day!

maclen said...

Just last night I was surfing the webs, and I stumbled on this hip hop blog that was posting the top 50 weekly cd sales.

http://exclusiveaddict.blogspot.com/

And I attempted to piece together the weekly cd sales of cletus' Defying Gravity. The last update of total cd sales of his cd was back on august 26, where I posted that defying had sold 526k copies. Well, I was only able to get sales of the orbs cd for the week of sept 1, which was 11k cds sold...and for sept 9, which he sold 10.9k cds ...but that was all I could find on this blog...as cletus' cd sales had dropped out of the top 50. So, with just a basic count based on the average...about 10k...seems defying gravity has now sold about 50k cds in the past month...for a total now of about 570k cds sold. So is just me...starting with this canadian game of "phantom" kidman and baby hawking at his shows...and the eventual photo ops in edmonton...and now this ridiculous episode of "pablum and cletus' scene from an overwrought soap opera...cletus seems to be panicked in making his music more and more about the "love story" ...his "romance"...or to quote...

"It's from a moment I had early on when my wife and I started dating," Urban says. "I asked her how her heart was. I'm not quite sure where the question came from. It was an unusual question, I think in hindsight. It's not something I'd ever asked anybody before, or perhaps even thought about.
"And I said, 'How is your heart?'
"And she said, 'It's open.'


...now tell me "urbaniacs" is that what's gonna really get you to go out and buy his cd? Cause, truly..I may just hurl! And I can only ask..."Is the cletus now just as corny and as melodramatic as kidman is to your liking?

hoosierlady said...

Finally! It only took two years!

I heart you Maclen!

BTW my liver probably sucks.

I agree with A440, it's very easy to be creative and true to one's art when it's someone else's money you are losing.

maclen said...

hoosierlady said...
"Finally! It only took two years!

Yes, hoosier, and I couldn't have asked for a better commenter to do it!
You know, I'm betting that about now...with kidman scrambling to piece together another of her dreary weepy indies to star in and the cletus' cd selling pretty anemic...they are just really feeling that well known saying..."Absence makes the heart grow fonder." What with the frayed nerves and the touchy moods...it cant be too pleasant...and as to kidman's new "hat" as "producer"...in fact I'm almost tempted to feel that in fact Danish Girl may not even get started, despite a director having been set and who also claims he's been involved for about a year and production is ready to go...until Rabbit Hole is set to be put on the market and gauged on how well it may sell and may potentially do at the box office. I certainly believe what with kidman's rather cavalier attitude on whether her film will be a financial success having been trumpeted in the NY times...I would tend to think that any future financiers would become involved with a little, if not alot, of trepidation! AGain, I'm not clear at this time on the Danish Girl's filming budget and whether it already has financiers...so I will have to look into that...so stay tuned!

Kathy Morgan International is repping AFM presales on "Girl," a period piece that's taken on a very modern resonance...

...so just as Rabbit Hole has no distributor...Kathy Morgan International will be "repping AFM presales on "girl"...which probably means kidman's blossom films, though based at murdoch's Fox studios...they are not bankrolling or distributing this film either. Again, quite a comedown for kidman...who is back to her "pre-cruise" career...toiling in indie pics that may or may not even find their ways to theaters! Who'll give me odds that Rabbit Hole ends up going "straight to dvd" release? And was the woody unnamed flick she was attached to for about 5 minutes her last even...proper mid level studio pic for a while, anyways? And even in the upcoming Nine, she basically has a cameo...not even getting any of the usual awards buzz she always was ridiculously receiving the past few years...certainly even up to last years Margot. The near horizon doesnt look very sunny for her career prospects...I'd say.
I say, once this "producer" ruse has biten the dust...sooner rather than later...the inevitible co-starring and bit player roles will be her only alternative.

maclen said...

Ha!...so here we go again...

http://jam.canoe.ca/Music/Artists/U/Urban_Keith/ConcertReviews/2009/10/02/11247461-sun.html

John Labatt Centre, London, Ont. - October 1, 2009

"Keith Urban's most famous fan was likely somewhere in the house...Civic sources said Oscar-winner Nicole Kidman flew into London from the U.S. late yesterday to join her country..."

...ok, now cue the creepy kidman sighting twits to scramble and find a pic of kidman in London! OR will they? Well...so far a day after... previously the NKUsers sighting twits who had posted info and one photo op and one video from kidman's one visit to canada on the 21st...the very next day...have nothing at the moment. The twits were able to post a twit's photo of them together in Nashville...the very next day! So did kidman journey back to canada for the cletus' "Canadian Family Tour?"

MOre from the review...

"I'm going to dedicate this song to my wife tonight," Urban said mid-set before launching into a lovely version of Memories are Made of Us. That comment, delivered from the secondary stage, was a possible clue to justify all the celebrity couple buzz at the arena.

...so, there's buzz of the "celebrity couple being in the arena, huh? Yes, they have that expectation due to the cletus' BS PR...but...is it true? And what is up with Cletus "Who's got the good (seats) now?" Orb? Tell me urbaniacs...how many times has he re-used that line on this tour? Is that supposed to be the huge attraction...the orb on a catwalk is the tired recycled attraction? Geez cletus... at least get some lasers...or fireworks...it may be all 70's and 80's...but it would at least be something different than say...hitting tennis balls into the crowd? Quote..."When Urban put aside his guitars for a goofy bit of fan fun as he swatted autographed tennis balls around the arena, he still showed raw power. Oooohh..the cletus has raw power! Yep...definately...the cletus is a poor man's "soccer ball kicking" rod stewart! Well, the cletus' begs to differ!

"I definitely need to practise my tennis," he joked as he put aside the racquet. With the stunt, Urban called to mind Rod Stewart booting soccer balls to fans from the same stage."

and of course the ending kicker...

Like Stewart and other rockers, say Bruce Springsteen, who command arenas, Urban appears to unstoppable in concert. No wonder the star's latest CD is called Defying Gravity.

..No, with sales barely at the mid 500k level after about 9 months... the orbs cd should be called "Defying Sales!"

maclen said...

...ps..

...oooohh...here comes some more PR BS from the recently lamely shilled "Canadian Family tour!"

This from inept team kidman's standby press release site...People.com...(which I have no doubt the cletus will be using alot more of as his cd dives on the charts!)

http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20309680,00.html

...In fact, he says, you might just catch him and Kidman cruising the Canadian highways on his BMW motorcycle in their downtime. "It's just a great way to get out and clear my head," he said. "My wife joins me. We both get on the bike. She's right behind me hanging on."

...so...are the stalker twits gonna have a "canadian wild hogs" photo op of the pair to hang on their fawn site? Oh yes...it'll fit right in nicely with those "calgary zoo" photo ops that the orb "claimed" they spent some time at that got splashed all over the nets and on the twits sightings thread, right?!
Even noticed they've recycled the "they've been out a couple of times" quote from last week to now describe this weeks canadian tour. Yes, cletus has a ridiculous tendency to recycle last weeks PR BS in his pathetic attempt at his own inept PR which no doubt has condemned kidman to her dreary weepy indies...

hoosierlady said...

I read that quote earlier this week from a different source, but I can't remember where.

This is recycled news. Do I smell a pattern?

Wait for it. . .. .

maclen said...

Yeah, hoosier...it's from this article...posted back on sept 19...

http://www.winnipegsun.com/entertainment/columnists/darryl_sterdan/2009/09/18/10969276-sun.html"

...obviously, inept team cletus now has a hold of inept team kidman's contact's rolodex...he is now diseminating his press releases with People.com as well. Personally, I cant wait for those photos of cletus cruising on the canadian highways on that "BMW motorcyle...with kidman in tow, no doubt!

maclen said...

So, as the orb's "Canadian Family Tour" dwindles to it's conclusion...(and I'm waiting for that "BMW motorcycling on the Canadian highways" photo op, by the way)...it seems once again kidman has vanished into her "PR silence." And of course, there is vast confusion as to where she is...a reviewer of the orb's London concert seems to "believe" that all signs point to kidman being "in the house" and claims..."Civic sources said Oscar-winner Nicole Kidman flew into London from the U.S. late yesterday to join her country..."

http://jam.canoe.ca/Music/Artists/U/Urban_Keith/ConcertReviews/2009/10/02/11247461-sun.html

...and the sighting twits over at NKU are posting...

Oct 3 2009, 02:48 PM
Rebbi75: @CelebSightings Keith urban and Nicole Kidman at the green hills movie theatre in Nashville. Came in at 7:15.


...and I gather that the original twit posting was at "6:04 PM Oct 2nd"... apparently, the orb was in Nashville on Oct 2nd...and today, there is another twit posting...dated "3 hours ago"...

dredezil1
Went to the circus for the first time in life...sat next to Nicole Kidman..icing on cake..until ppl started snapping pics of her


...claiming kidman is still in Nashville on Oct 3rd...(apparently, the Shrine Circus is in Nashville this weekend!) So, just to review...kidman flew into London on oct 1st to attend the orbs concert...then kidman and the orb flew back to Nashville to see a movie at the Green Hills theater on Oct 2nd...and then the orb flew back to London...alone...for his next concert on Oct 3rd while kidman then remained in Nashville and then went to the circus! Notwithstanding that I would believe one thousand percent that kidman would most certainly prefer to go to the circus, rather than to another cletus show... kidman apparently is somewhere...but seemingly and so far not on the "Canadian Family tour"...

maclen said...

Well, here is the first review of cletus' last canadian gig...

http://www.torontosun.com/entertainment/columnists/jane_stevenson/2009/10/04/11280821-sun.html

Urban gets close to fans at ACC

(oh oh... I got a sinking feeling...)

"Urban had bravely ventured down both ramps for extended guitar solos, just inches from his fans, and by the next song, You're My Better Half, he had wandered around the floor to a smaller mini stage at the very back.

"Who's got the good seats now?"

...he yelled, before launching into one of the evening's highlights, Once In A Lifetime,...

(...once in a lifetime does not describe that line!)

"Urban then took a seat and switched to an acoustic guitar for Making Memories of Us, which he dedicated to his wife-actress Nicole Kidman, who may or may not have been in the crowd, followed by Only You Can Love Me This Way."

(...and the question remains! Where was kidman?)

and apparently his rod stewart impression is still in the set...

"Still, the bit where he put on a headband, wristband and signed tennis balls and then hit them out into the crowd with a tennis racket, with the help of Lady Antebellum's Hillary Scott, was a bit goofy.

(but I'm sure the fans, even the repeat attendees,...over and over...think it's great!)

Just like you have been predicting the end of Nicole's career for 4 years...Do you girls even know that her last two films (Australia, Golden Compass) have made about $600 million worldwide at the box-office? And that it's actually more money than Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt or Tom Cruise's last two films? And she has three very, VERY interesting upcoming films: Nine, Rabbit Hole, The Danish Girl...The last one will be directed by Thomas Alfredson..Have you girls heard of him? I doubt it since you don't seem to know much about movies. Hating on an actress because she has ruined your precious fantasy is so much more fun..."

There were tweets that NK was in Nashville at the circus Sat. night. I'm not sure if she was performing or attending. I did hear of the new circus act "The Incredible Pasty Giant" ... so I'm thinking this may be a new phase of her career. Exciting, don't you think?

She don't need no stinkin' movie career, when she's got the circus.

There were tweets that NK was in Nashville at the circus Sat. night. I'm not sure if she was performing or attending. I did hear of the new circus act "The Incredible Pasty Giant" ... so I'm thinking this may be a new phase of her career. Exciting, don't you think


Thanks, Imachick, for that insightful and eloquent comment. I, personally was thinking of "Giraffe Woman" or "Cave Woman" because of the supreme paleness, or maybe "Rickets Woman" because of the paleness, guant, emaciated figure, and hair loss. Either way you go, she need not worry about her future, she always has a career awaiting her with the circus! Money to fall back on, if she blows through her savings trying to prove herself a producer. It's certainly a load off my mind, knowing she's taken care of, you know I have trouble sleeping if I dwell on her problems too long.

Again, thank you for the comforting words.

Another Kidman may be moving out of Australia. And it's really because she can't get a career here.

Silly beans! The circus had a preview, then the first show was on October 1st. It's only 6 hours to London on a jet folks!

Imahick said...

Silly beans ... NK was tweeted to be there on Oct 3rd. I don't know if she was there, but the reports were on Sat night.

Hey look everyone, the "Lady of Nashville" is back to set the record straight! So...kidman was at the circus in Nashville on the 1st...and the "twitter-er" who sat next to her then waited 2 days and then posted it on twitter on the 3rd... where it was then immediately posted at NKU 7 minutes later...yeah....that makes sense!
Yes, I can definately see kidman's attraction to the circus...she's had years of experience living in that sort of atmosphere. Being as she is now a joke in her former profession...she has been gradually transforming herself to fit into the circus... pale skin...frizzy straw like hair...bloated lips...the very image of a circus clown.

Choice said...

Here is a photo of Nicole at the circus. I may be mistaken, but it looks like she has decided to work there too. Maclen she has listened to you at long last:

Well, actually Choice...that one she is going very incognito...but here...obtained when I "called a friend of an acquaintance of the hairdresser who know kidman's"...and etc...is the never before seen, actual photo of kidman's and cletus' wedding reception...

Fantastic shots Maclen, gotta hand it to you!

"Fantastic shots Maclen, gotta hand it to you!"

Yeah, quite fitting for the recent discussion huh Choice? Cool, did you see the "wedding reception" pic Urban Myths has placed on the home page? Hilarious!
So, did you notice the recent stories coming out a few hours ago on the announced performers at the CMA"S? The first reports headlines are, "underwood and paisley" to perform...naturally, they are hosting... then its "underwood, swift" to perform..."Brad Paisley, Carrie Underwood, Taylor Swift " top perform....then more "swift, unerwood, paisley"..and so on and so forth. Then "chesney and Brooks and dunn" finally make the headlines about 5 hours ago. Notice who is missing, so far, from these headlines? Yep, cletus....now apparently, orb is already set to perform, he's mentioned in the stories. But he seems to be just an aftethought. In this story...

http://www.pollstar.com/blogs/news/archive/2009/10/05/692399.aspx

...orb does get mentioned in the first paragraph, but only paisley...swift...brookes and dunn and underwood get a special promo and photo highlight sections in this article. It would seem to me that cletus is, unfortunately, not the face of country...or even it leading selling point.

Choice said...

So Maclen, where is Defying Gravity in the US charts now, at 110? I told Keith not to name an album about his wife, but he wouldn't listen to me.

PS. I'm going to use that wedding reception photo too in my blog for the time line. So cute, thanks again for finding taking that photo LOL.

maclen said...

Yeah,choice, that is a very cool pic...you can really find anything on the nets to go with any occassion...even kidman trying out for a job at the circus!
Well, actually Choice, although the cd is actually up last week from the previous week, it was #54 and #59 the week before...but honestly, at that level, the cd is only selling below 10k a week...and about 570k copies in total...(and in fact, Choice, Ive joked it should be called "Defying sales") And really, album sales are the true indicator...sure release the singles every couple of months to keep the fanbase revved...the live shows to keep yourself in the news...(and again...I've yet to see a "non" gung ho review... truly the orb must be the most "perfect" live performer in history!) And so, if my theory of the orb's album declining cd sales trend remains true...his next album should only sell about 300k-350k total!

maclen said...

So, apparently the nk twitters have once again tracked the cletus, via a twitter photo, back to nashville on his "off time"...a photo in nashville at the "whole foods" on sept 29...a "report" that kidman is at the circus in nashville on Oct 3, the same day as cletus' gig in toronto...now "reports" and a "photo" of cletus and kidman at a nashville "tartet". Intersting, they dont seem able to get any "sighting reports" or "photos" of kidman at the cletus' gigs...except the official photo op of kidman in edmonton on sept 21...and fansie submitted "photos" supposedly of kidman at the "calgary show." So, basically, all the hard proof evidence shows that kidman more than likely remained in Nashville while cletus finished off the last 3 gigs in canada. And obviously the orb, instead of simply making the more convient drive into NY...where he next finishes off the last 3 US gigs...he must instead catch the next jet back to Nashville where kidman was once again chillin it out...at the circus... and now once again the cletus will jump back on the jet and fly back to NY to finished off his US gigs. And once again I ask will kidman bother to fly over with the orb...or will she continue to chill in Nashville, where she is no doubt getting her seating and camera blocking and photo ops planned and arranged for the "opry benefit?"

maclen said...

So it seems kidman is in fact in NY while the orb finishes off his US tour. And she has conveniently scheduled a rather lame and manufactured photo op...

NY: Nicole Kidman Donates Her OMEGA Constellation Timepiece

...Ha! So, are you impressed by the headline? Kidman "donates" an omega consellation timepiece at the OMEGA Flagship Boutique on Fifth Avenue ...and it's even "personally autographed" I also read...now...how impressed would the few unknowing be if they were aware that kidman is an "OMEGA AMBASSADOR"...she shills omega watches for omega! No doubt her "donated" watch for the sake of this lame photo op was simply a freebie...but I'm sure her "autograph" makes it "priceless!" ORb has a few more gigs in NY...I wonder what other photo ops kidman will engage in to keep her from...god forbid...actually sitting in at a live cletus gig! Oh, but I'm sure she is just somewhere backstage...out of sight of the fans...and those show reviewers who mention she MUST be somewhere in the house, just not out in plain sight!

maclen said...

...ps...

..oh yes, I also meant to comment on those getty photos of kidman shilling for omega watches...unfortunately for the photo opportunist kidman...the lighting at the omega boutique is not up to hollywood film set or even redcarpet standards for the "non facial procedured" celebs...when I initially saw the getty photos...I acually thought that they had unveiled another wax figure over at Madame Tussauds!...check out these horrors...
