Nicole Kidman STUNS on the cover of Vogue

STUNS! Such an original clickbait headline word!

Like my older sister with a funny accent!

OP's pic: She looks like a Walnut Whip with a straw sticking out of it.

I am stunned by my ennui.

Once again, stunned is doing a lot of work here.

Try a new word. You've just about worn this one out, OP. Or, at least rendered it meaningless.

Looks like a rough old Shelia

Is she going cray like Vadge?

She could be the cover photo for the "want to be underwhelmed" thread.

Did they give her a cover because Mr. Frosted Tips & Shoe Lifts dumped her?

She's trying to out-Veronica Lake Veronica Lake in OP's pic. There goes her depth perception.

Those must be AI generated images. She had her day in the sun over 30 years ago. Let it go Nicole - you'll never be younger than you are today - and you ain't young anymore!

I think she may have had some work done.

"Make me look like an enormous, brown BELL! Don't worry if the silhouette seems ridiculous--a BELL I must become!"

R17 = Helen Keller

Her face looks like porcelain. I'm surprised it doesn't crack when she smiles.

She’s obsessed with herself. What a weird way to exist.

Actors are generally pretty narcissistic.

She could stealthily crop dust anyone in those skirts

I’m all natural. I swear it. No procedures.

Welp, I will say she looks better than Meghan of Sussex.

She's still completely uninteresting to me. I'm not trying to be mean, but her enduring success baffles me, she's only in flops!

I guess she needs some modeling gigs to pay Keith his $11M sobriety bonus.

One more facelift on this one and she’ll have a beard.

She’s dressed like a cross between a Hershey’s Kiss and a man-bun. Okay.

I find her relentless pursuit of - what? - fame? money? awards? success? - interesting as it's not a life that I would wish on anyone but there are not many actors who seem to want to just disappear and rest on their laurels. In her case these include a shitload of money, an Oscar, a BAFTA and a bunch of Golden Globes, not to mention 2 or 4 children.

Maybe the fame is addictive. Madonna is the same - it sounds exhausting with all the procedures and dieting and working out and photoshoots and looking for new projects to stay in the spotlight. Then there's dealing with all the support team - agent, producers, directors - exhausting.

But she obviously sells magazines - not everybody gets a Vogue cover.

At her AFI Lifetime Achievement Award ceremony - Meryl Streep presented the award and said that it's simple about why Nicole does such a huge range and volume of work - that she just loves it.

Sometimes the simplest answer is the most obvious one.

You bitches are mean. DL is a minefield of bitterness.

Somehow, heartbreak feels good in a place like this.

The budget must be zero these days. No imagination or sense of escape and storytelling.

In the short term, we judge her very harshly, but I think she will stand the test of time. The New York Times list during Covid was proof of that. Where was Cate Blanchett?

She’s pretty and she’s thin. She photographs well and as long as she doesn’t have to express too much it’s not jarring.

She's not pretty, though r33. Unless by pretty, you mean brittle looking.

Is she wearing lettuce in that second picture?

Attention whore in the extreme.

It’s mental illness at this point. She truly believes she’s 33-years-old and not almost 60.

She stars in nothing but flops which makes one wonder how she gets all these sexualized cover spreads in major periodicals (which is somewhat of an oxymoron) when all her films tank and her endless streaming output is beyond forgettable.

She has always possessed an arctic presence that turns countless viewers off. That’s why she never got actual romcoms.

So what’s the fucking deal with this out-of-touch, slavish media coverage?

Was there some clause in her first divorce where if she gave up the adopted kids and kept her mouth shut he would ensure she stayed employed and had press coverage far beyond her expiration date?

Hollywood is filled with weirdness but Nicole Kidman and her bizarre career has entered the arena of science fiction.

Was Sunday Rose unavailable for this shoot? Or was she busy auditioning for the role of Mrs. Drysdale in a “Beverly Hillbillies” remake?

I wouldn't call "Big Little Lies" a flop - critically or financially. Plus she produced it, with Reese Witherspoon.

Yes she has made loads of less successful vehicles but this one came later in her career.

fat ass

What on earth would make anyone think Nicole Kidman is delusional about her age? That’s just silly talk.

An eight-year-old ensemble HBO show does not warranty the cover of Vogue. Especially with all her flop films after.

Maybe when studios need a tax write off film they hire Nicole knowing she’s guaranteed to stink up the box office.

She must have blackmail photos of Wintour smiling or something.

Damn, they really went wild with the photoshop
