Keith Urban's Life Wasn't Relevant Before Kidman
From an interview with The Boot... the entire interview is here: http://www.theboot.com/2010/02/16/keith-urban-interview/
Q: So since you didn't get a chance to give an acceptance speech, wanna give one now?
A: First and foremost, I'd thank anybody who voted for me! But certainly, Nic is just absolutely ... I don't even know if she's changed my life; she's given me a life. That's what it's all about. There's seemingly no relevance to my previous life, before meeting her. I have such deep love and gratitude for everything she's done for me. Words just escape me when it comes to her.
Thanks, Laura, for posting this earlier.

From the AWFUL truth....
Nicole and Keith Get Trashy for V-Day
Today 11:15 AM PST by Ted Casablanca and Ashley Fultz
Anyone who doesn't want to think of Nicole Kidman as a sexual being, read no further.
Keith Urban was spotted shopping yesterday afternoon at Trashy Lingerie in West Hollywood, picking out some sexy costumes (that's right) for his wife...
According to our Valentine's Day spy, Urban strolled in around 1 p.m., casually dressed in jeans and a black and blue plaid shirt.
"He was really nice and not shy at all," adds our sexy source. "He had the sales girl help him pick out some stuff and ended up buying three different sexy outfits for Nicole."
So what might Nic be dressing up in Sunday night?
"He got a naughty schoolgirl outfit, a matching red and black bra and panty set from the Sweetheart Lace Collection and the third was a matching set from the brand new Aphrodite line in red and black."
Who knew there was such a...lover inside the sometimes ice queen.
As for Keith's mood, we're told he was jolly as can be panty shopping, browsing around for a while and singing along to the music playing.
Wonder if Kidman approved of her man pet going out to buy her some sexy goods, or if this is one of her surprises come Sunday. Either way, let's just hope Nic can show some emotion when she unwraps those boxes this weekend!

John Mayer & Keith Urban Crossroads
Lainey's column today:
It was taped last night. Third Lip was not seen. There was room for only one ego in the joint, it belonged to John Mayer. One source described it as follows: “he’s a rambling douche”. And his self-indulgent f-ckery wasn’t well received. Here’s an incident that sums it up:
The musicians had plenty of opportunity to prep. Of course they did. As the two headliners, they’re pampered and coddled, and nothing happens until they are ready. So as they take their places, a production member took to the stage to explain to the audience how the show was being filmed. This was told to me and I’m passing it to you to illustrate that Mayer had more than enough time to get set.
Once the audience had been briefed, they were ready to begin. And Keith began. And as soon as he began, John Mayer had to stop him. To the effect of: “I don’t want to be that guy who has to change his guitar strap but I’m using the blue one and I have to have the green one”. Or green to blue. And so it continued. A seemingly endless stream of consciousness as though the people sitting there actually cared about all the profundity spewing from his mouth. This however did not seem to faze Taylor Swift. Oh honey…
As such, I’m hearing that John and Keith did not exactly spark the kind of chemistry that everyone was hoping for. Because, ultimately, it’s always the John Mayer Show. My sources tell me Keith was not comfortable. And this of course makes a tour rather tricky. As I reported last week, the two were negotiating, and while dates have been tentatively marked off, yesterday’s developments could ultimately change the outcome, to say nothing of Granny Freeze Kidman. John Mayer’s reputation does not please her. She could kill it in the end.

Questions for Keith Urban
Recently on Keith's website, he answered a number of "approved" questions. We at UM have a few of our own. Bet these won't get answered. Please feel free to add more!
1. What's up with the band.... rumors of contracts not renewed, etc.? Your peeps responded with a "tweet" about the "new" band page, which was the old band.
2. Is the band for hire when you need them, i.e. ACM's, Fairs & Festivals tour 2010, Crossroads...etc.?
3. Did your fan club get a chance for tickets/advance notice for The Ellen Show?
4. Did your fan club get a chance for tickets/advance notice for the Crossroads taping with John Mayer?
5. How is your Mum, Dad, and brother? Seen them lately?
6. How was that trip to New Zealand to visit the homeland during Christmas?
7. Why should the average Keith Urban fan shell out money when the fan club is really non-existent when it comes to perks?
8. Who actually benefits from fan club membership fees?
9. Why would anyone pay $100 for a ticket to see you at a fair?
10. Why would you buy a condo 20+ floors up, when you have a toddler, and sold a house because it didn't have enough yard for her?
11. How is the contractual marriage working out for you?
12. That extra Holiday time you were going to take in Australia and New Zealand, what was it, 2 weeks of free time?
13. The Stampedes, Fairs, Rodeos and Side Shows that you're doing for 2010, will that be just you and your Guitar?
14. Does the term 5 year contract mean anything to you?
15. Did your wife even remember her only son's birthday? Maybe send him a card? She was probably too busy trying to be seen at the Golden Globes to bother seeing him, but a card might have been nice.
16. Speaking of your step-children? How are they? Have you seen them lately?
17. How does your wife feel about the possible upcoming tour with John Mayer? Will she become "your savior" once again?
18. Why do you have two homes in Nashville?
19. How does your wife look in the morning when "It's Raining on Sunday"?
20. Does your Diary have an entry about George Clooney in it tonight?

A fond farewell to Keith Urban... thanks for the ride...
You cut the ride too short, dude. We were on a rollercoaster ride for a while. It was a wild ride while it lasted. I think I held on just a little too long; I wish I would have bailed before I got to know you too well.
I found you through You'll Think of Me. I didn't listen to country music at all at the time. I heard YTOM on my AC station and found myself wanting to discover who you were. Well, I certainly did. I saw you in concert and was hooked. I made some lifelong friends, some of the best people I know and will ever know, because of you. I traveled the country to see you in concert. I discovered all of your music and loved it all. I spent big bucks for tickets, just to see you up close. Unfortunately, shortly after I found you... you found HER. You got married and ended up in rehab just a few short months later. You emerged from rehab a changed person. A healthier person, but your musical soul was adrift... your muse was drowned by the celebrity that became your wife and your life.
I've held on to the memories and had hopes for a great recovery... only to have new music thrust at me like Sweet Thing, Kiss A Girl and other adolescent yearning songs. The only song I liked from Defying Gravity was Til Summer Comes Around, and you topped that with a superb video. Thank you for that. BUT then....
Just a few days later, you were playing and singing a tribute song for Simon Baker, an honest actor from Oz. It would have been great for you to sing and play to him, but your wife made an idiot of herself prancing about behind you, and singing off-key with you, as well.
I've suffered through all the photo calls arranged by your wife when you chose to be seen getting coffee, shopping, going to the doctor, taking your daughter for a walk and to the zoo, etc., knowing that it's what SHE wants. But is it really what you want? Do you honestly like living your life in the tabloids? Are money and fame so important that things that you used to care about (your parents, your brother's family, God, and your fans, to name a few) are now trivial?
If this is what you want your life to be, then so be it. You are not the person nor the artist I thought you were. I became a fan of yours for the music, for the emotions, for the thrill of being a fan of a true artist.
You have proven me wrong; you aren't the person I thought you were. Godspeed, Mr. Urban, and good luck. At least I can thank you for my lifelong friends and for some great memories. What will you have when your rollercoaster ride is over?
Cheers,
A former fan
