Nicole Kidman Model & Actress

Why is She famous

Nicole Kidman is head and shoulders above her peers, and it’s not merely because of her towering 5’11” frame. This statuesque Aussie has established herself as one of the greatest actresses of her generation with commanding performances in Moulin Rouge!, Cold Mountain and The Hours. Kidman can be seen next in Rabbit Hole, a heart-wrenching drama about a couple grieving the loss of their only child.
Nicole Kidman keeps on getting better with age. This supremely talented Aussie has won 18 major awards since her 30th birthday, including a Golden Globe for her role as a singing and dancing courtesan in Moulin Rouge! and an Oscar for her depiction of suicidal author Virginia Woolf in The Hours. Along the way, her personal fee has skyrocketed to $16 million per picture, making her one of the highest paid actresses in Hollywood. Kidman has also managed to pad her bank account since 2003 by appearing in advertisements for high-profile products like the Nintendo DS and Chanel No. 5, the top-selling fragrance in the world. Kidman should continue to enhance her profile and her personal fortune over the next few years as she tackles a full slate of promising new projects.
It may surprise many moviegoers to discover that Australia’s favorite female actress wasn’t actually born in the Land Down Under. The daughter of a prominent biochemist, Nicole Mary Kidman was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, and spent her early years in Washington, D.C., where her Australian-born father was a visiting fellow at the National Institute of Mental Health. The Kidman clan eventually returned to Oz following Nicole’s fourth birthday and settled down in an affluent Sydney suburb.

Nicole Kidman Quote

" To be an actor you have to have a certain amount of madness in you. That's why, when people meet you and you seem very together, they are quite surprised -- they don't see you behind closed doors."
