Nicole Kidman Pokies at Golden Globe

Nicole Kidman presented the best supporting actress Golden Globe to Mo’Nique Sunday night. She looked lovely but could have used another layer underneath her skin-colored satin gown.

Kidman stars in ‘Nine,’ nominated for Best Motion Picture, Comedy or Musical.

This is not the first time Kidman has worn a dress that calls attention to her bust.

Nicole Kidman conceded Wednesday that Hollywood has probably contributed to violence against women by portraying them as weak sex objects.

The Oscar-winning actress said she is not interested in those kinds of demeaning roles, adding that the movie industry also has made an effort to contribute to solutions for ending the violence.

Kidman testified before a House Foreign Affairs subcommittee that is considering legislation to address violence against women overseas through humanitarian relief efforts and grants to local organizations working on the problem.

Asked by Rep. Dana Rohrabacher, R-Calif., if the movie industry has “played a bad role,” Kidman said “probably,” but quickly added that she herself doesn’t.

“I can’t be responsible for all of Hollywood but I can certainly be responsible for my own career,” she said.

Kidman appeared before the committee in her role as a goodwill ambassador for the U.N. Development Fund for Women, known as UNIFEM, to promote the International Violence Against Women Act.

“In the real world, the laws go unenforced and impunity is the norm,” she said.

The legislation has stalled in the past, but a sponsor, Rep. Bill Delahunt, D-Mass., said he and others plan to reintroduce it soon.

The Australian star told Congress that the U.N. women’s fund needs more resources. “We need the money,” she said.

Before the hearing began, a crowd of people lined the hall and around the corner to hear her speak.

So for the past few hours I have been thinking about how I feel in regards to Nicole Kidman being on Project Runway. She is going to be on the All-Star Edition which airs prior to the season premiere. Both will be on Thursday so I guess I know how I will be spending my Thursday night. I don’t know if Nicole is going to be a judge. Access Hollywood said she is scheduled to be the one who presents the challenge or is a part of the challenge. Usually though when that happens the person who establishes the challenge also gets to be the judge. Whenever Nicole is involved in something that doesn’t require her to memorize lines she can be fairly funny and charming and so I think this will actually be kind of interesting to see.

Has lightning struck twice for Nicole Kidman? Word in Hollywood is that Kidman — who recently dyed her hair back to her natural color, red, and has been sporting a poochy stomach — is pregnant again. Kidman and husband Keith Urban have one child, Sunday Rose, but Kidman’s talked about her trouble getting pregnant in the past — and how she’d like more children. A rep for Kidman said, “Not to my knowledge,” but we say, good luck!

Nicole Kidman and Cate Blanchett are among four Oscar-winning Australian actors who have been immortalised onto postage stamps in their home country.

Russell Crowe and Geoffrey Rush have also been honoured after the foursome were named legends of the year by the post office.

The special edition Australian stamps will make for essential movie memorabilia and can be bought online.

Each of the film stars gets two stamps - showing them both in and out of character.

Kidman is pictured in a scene from Moulin Rouge, Crowe’s stamp shows him in Gladiator, Rush’s is taken from Shine and Cate Blanchett’s from Elizabeth: The Golden Age.

The four Australian Academy Award winners have each received a 24-carat gold replica of the stamps and all were thrilled to be selected.

Kidman said: ‘Something like this - when you see your face on a stamp - says “wow”.’

The star added that she was excited her children would one day be able to ‘lick a stamp, put it on an envelope and say “that’s my mum.”‘

Blanchett said being selected to appear on stamp took ‘my breath away.’

‘I am utterly, deeply, humbled and chuffed by the fact I’m on a stamp,’ she said.

Crowe, who won his Oscar as Maximus in Gladiator, attended a special ceremony on Australia’s national holiday to mark the creation of the stamps.

He took to the stage alongside Blanchett and Geoffrey Rush, who said he felt that the stamps ‘can actually be a celebration of us’.

The Shine star noted he had grown up in the 1950s and 60s when ‘the only person on a stamp was the Queen.’

‘It’s a classy thing to know you’re on security paper,’ he said.

The Australian Post started its Australian Legend award in 1997 when cricketer Don Bradman was chosen.

The Oscar-winners were selected this year for their ‘outstanding contribution’ to entertainment and culture in Australia.

Kidman was awarded an Oscar in 2002 for her role in The Hours, while Blanchett received an Academy Award in 2005 for the Aviator.

Australia’s Prime Minister Kevin Rudd added: ‘The creative ability of Cate Blanchett, Russell Crowe, Nicole Kidman and Geoffrey Rush has already been widely celebrated here in Australia and around the globe.

‘It is a rare tribute to be asked to appear on one of our nation’s postage stamps.’
