Listing a "thirty something" actor as a living national treasure is bizarre. Among her snowballing list of fawning accolades, Kidman was named by Time magazine as one of the 100 most influential people in the world, .. to buy magazines (to find out whether she is sleeping with Keith Urban, Steve Bing or starving herself to death) count?
Getting dressed must take her forever, I mean for a curly haired redhead, how long must she spend transforming her hair?
After seeing the documentary about the making of her two and a half minute perfume advertisement ...If you key “I hate Nicole Kidman” into Google you get an astonishing 167 results ...
When film veteran Lauren Bacall, who sees Nicole as a relative beginner, had the temerity to correct a sycophant reporter who described Nicole as a “Legend”, she was pilloried around the world.
But why do I not recognise her hard work and effort to make it to the top. All those toiling years as an unknown - two as a teenager with Tom Burlinson and then ten years with Tom Cruise. This woman is such a role model!
Why can I not jump on board the global admiration bandwagon and learn to love that giggle, the demure baby doe eyes and the millions of dollars she gives to charity (oh sorry - I made that bit up). Miaow!
If I could just learn to love Nicole like "everybody" else does then the doctors say that I might just be able to get out of this padded cell and the straight jacket and fit back into society like a good girl".
NB: Tony - I worked for more decades than you have lived, and gave my country 3 taxpaying children. I am not ugly nor did I say so here.

Sorry BROWNIE.
Spoke with T and N as far back as 1989 and asked them what charities they give to. They told me they did not want to be affiliated with any orginizations.

They have been pushed into giving to charities openly as a media ploy to stop being harrassed. They have always given privately.
When I pay someones rent or buy fresh fruit and veg. for seniors I do not tell anyone.When orginizations want to shake me down for money I tell them I do not give to Charity through public/orginized means .Remember the famine 50's in Africa ?Why does the Humane Society not spay /nuetre animals before going back out into the system? It is a scam as far as i am concerned with so many people making a good living off the donated dollar.
There is always get a tax reciept and award for posturing. As a Christian I was raised never to tell anyone what I have given b-c it takes away from the whole spirit of Charity.

The movie stars and all-so-important people in the media talking constantly about what they give and how much are the ones i can't stand.Nicole looked so uncomfortable trying to sit in the chair at the U.N to be a spokes woman for three Charities. It hurts when you know you have given so much out, quietly and personally, being such a beautiful thing and heart warming to then be told by a mass of people you are cheap , do not care about the less fortunate and should give, soley because they have not seen you do your personal charitable work.Bill Gates was here last year and gave a school 6 computers. For that he was on the front cover of two daily papers and a fancy lunch with politicians and charities committee people.
He is where we should be concentrating our focus on. But he is not a pretty woman with a glamorous career, so why bother?

News Flash! Apparently Tom Cruise has split up with Katie - they are just pretending to stay together until after the birth of the child. Obviously all that charity work has taken its toll on the poor man - either than our Katie has woken up to the fact she was living with a control freak with only a tenuous grasp on reality.

Now I know that TIT (rather unfortunate anagram there Tony) will be mortified by this and feel obliged to pontificate further on the godly stature of Tom some more - please don't. You seem to have missed the point of this forum - an opportunity to rant about our irritating Nicole in a clever, sarcastic manner. You would be better to scroll through these comments until you locate CourtneyluvsNicole and bond with her instead.

Meanwhile the rest of us can wax lyrical about this new Tom development and how Nicole must be ecstatic! I guess I am strangely pleased as well - how shallow of me.

SKE; you found me out! TIT is actually the name of the planet I am from. Nicole,Tom ,God and I are from a planet you Earthlings have not discovered yet. We cloak it with a LOVE device.As I put on my green Alpha-ray goggles I can now see this is really a HATE site.

I met Nicole and Tom through the same pre-used U.F.O dealership I rent my flying saucer from. Rent-a-Space near Sky-Lab Elleven, across the Glixx Donut Hut .Just look up from the Hollywood sign but be careful not to incinerate yourself if you are on the landing path, not visible to the human eye.

O.K then. It's time to go back to TIT . Been interesting learning your ways of HATE. We will examine it closley and learn to use this most presciuos skill of yours to develope a New Order.

We are trying to eliminate the word HATE from our vocabularies in all languages, along with the 'n' word, the C' word describing women and the f' word that used to describe a bundle of sticks tied together.

I just don't get it....I haven't been here, but you all still feel the need to attack me. Time has passed by since my comments defending Nicole were posted. I'm at the point where I say "WHO CARES". If you hate her, fine. If you like her, fine. Are you proving anything by coming here and attacking an innocent woman? Absolutely not. Adrianna can think however she wants to. Hate is a strong word, and if she "hates" her, well....like it's supposed to matter what she thinks. Her views don't make an impression on mine, so she can rant and rave all she wants. I've grown up since then, and you all need to do some growing up yourselves. Think about it this way: She's just an actress trying live her life day by day. Let her be guys, and move on. If you dislike her, OKAY OKAY. We got it. No biggie. Let's respect each other's opinions, and try to get along. That's the best way to handle this. I'm not here to personally attack anyone anymore, I'm here to make peace with you. Don't be so angry about something so minor. Let's ALL just move on.
