Nicole Kidman

[Augustus]

She may not have had major plastic surgery, but she's botoxed up to the hilt. I've seen her appear on talk shows, being all animated where her forehead does absolutely nothing. Yeah, sure, natural.

I know, it really does make me sad to see how much her face has changed. These photos from Vogue, June 1999 show how different she used to look - certainly, it's flatteringly-lit and airbrushed, but what a reminder of how beautiful she was back in the day. It's a shame that she bought so completely into becoming a Botoxed blonde.

She looks awful now, like really awful.

ETA: But I want the coat she is wearing at the Australian Music Awards or whatever.

As for Nicole, I get the impression that she isn't understanding that she is forty and is still acting like a little girl; I remember this summer there were all these pics of her running around in pigtails and bows in her hair, it was just bizarre.

I first started noticing Kidman's bizarre Child-Woman behavior in '96 or so. It's creepy. It's one of the things that makes me wonder just how much "acting" was really required for her part in Eyes Wide Shut.

She may not have had major plastic surgery

I think she's had a few surgeries/procedures that were meant to enhance her already attractive features. I think it's very common in Hollywood to tweak things in pursuit of what will look perfect on film (see CZJ, Angelina Jolie's nose). Unfortunately, it didn't really work so well on her. I think her nose job is what has really changed her looks. If you look at the Vogue photos and then at a recent picture there is a sublte difference and you can almost see what the goal was -- to take a bit off the tip and to thin the bridge. But it just didn't work out as intended.

I still love her, but there was a time (like in those Vogue scans) where I could stare at her forever. Now? Not so much. There are times where she is still a regal, aloof knock out but those are few and far between.

Let's not forget she was very much into being married/controlled to Tom, renewed her vows to him, did not want the divorce and kind of fell apart after it. So we can't blame all that is wrong with her on Tom. Girl has a few problems, IMHO.

I hate to defend Tom, but I agree. Nicole acted absolutely pathetic after their divorce. I remember her talking about how she would just lie in bed and cry all day for weeks after they split, how it took so much courage for her just to get up and get dressed, etc. She definately did not want that divorce. (Or, if she did, she did a reaaalllly good job of hiding it.)

Nicole is at the ACM awards tonight. Her upper lip is very large and immobile.

Looking better than usual but seriously, who is she kidding when she said she's all natural? I love you, Nicole but just own up to it already.
