The most jaw dropping images of Nicole Kidman
Nicole Kidman was born in Honolulu on June 20, 1967 to a biochemist and psychologist father and a nursing school teacher mother. She was four years old when her whole family returned to live in Australia in Sydney, where her Irish ancestors settled in the middle of the 19th century. Very young, Nicole Kidman was passionate about the arts; classical dance, theatre, literature, photography…
A true pillar of the family, Janelle Kidman, a committed feminist, encourages her daughters to follow in her footsteps and takes them with her to the Women's Electoral Lobby, an Australian feminist organization. At 17, the life of the teenager changes when she learns that her beloved mother has breast cancer. With her sister, Antonia, she watches over her in turn. The same year she abandoned her studies, chose to follow one of her passions, drama, and enrolled at the Phillip Street Theater in Sydney.
In 1983, she made her debut in front of the camera in Bush Christmas. She landed a first role in 1989 in Calme Blanc, but it was the following year with Jour de tonnerre, alongside Tom Cruise, that she was noticed for the first time. In 1995, she distinguished herself in Batman Forever and Prête à tout. She tours twice with Tom Cruise, her partner on screen and in the city; Distant Horizons and Eyes Wide Shut. In the early 2000s, when the actress experienced a painful period in her personal life, her career reached new heights. The actress confirms her status as an international star and has a string of successes; Moulin Rouge!, The Others and The Hours. The role of the writer Virginia Woolf, for which she was ugly, allows her to accumulate the trophies, Oscar, Golden Globe and Bafta for best actress in 2003.
Very eclectic, the actress embarks on different adventures, makes daring choices (Dogville, Birth) and alternates with more commercial films (My Beloved Witch, Australia, Nine). She does not hesitate to break her image in Paperboy in 2012 and appears on the screen as a nymphomaniac Barbie doll. Nicole Kidman multiplies the projects and leads at the same time a career as a producer (In the Cut, Rabbit Hole, Monte-Carlo).
