The Hollywood star with Australian roots is promoting the film Bad Girl. In it, Nicole Kidman plays the CEO of a company, Romi, who embarks on a romance with a young intern. Her performance has already earned critical praise and several nominations at film awards.
However, a video of Nicole posing on the red carpet during the premiere of the film has gone viral. She wore a white and pink dress with off-shoulder sleeves, a long train, and a black belt at the waist. A reporter from Pop Crave approached the Oscar-winning actress to ask a few questions about the movie, but instead of answering, she asked him which publication he was from.
The journalist patiently repeated the name of his outlet. Nicole then shrugged, looked away from the camera, and laughed, indicating that the name meant nothing to her. Many users criticized her for her dismissive behavior toward the reporter.
“I’d be embarrassed if I were that poor guy, and Nicole Kidman was laughing at me like that,” “This looks rude,” “Nicole is acting like a diva,” “Sorry, but this is damn disgusting behavior,” “I didn’t like how she laughed so much, I would’ve said, ‘Okay, I’m not asking you any more questions,'” wrote some commenters.
However, some of her fans defended her: “This moment is perfect for a star of her level,” “Damn, she’s a legend,” “A queen in action,” “Who better to embody a cool Nicole than Nicole herself?!”
In the film, Nicole shares many intimate scenes with 28-year-old actor Harris Dickinson. She talked about how they prepared for these scenes: “We had a coordinator for the intimate scenes, but it was still delicate, intimate, and very deep moments. It was a flow that allowed us to move, change, and work. It wasn’t a confined space, and I like working this way.”
In this erotic thriller, Nicole and Harris are joined by Antonio Banderas, Esther Rose McGregor, Sophie Wilde, and Isabel Mar. The wife of Australian musician Keith Urban compared her role in the project to the “toxic relationship” her character experienced in Big Little Lies. “The films are really very different, but both definitely make me feel open, vulnerable, scared, and all those things when they hit the screen,” added Kidman.
