Nicole Kidman, the celebrated 56-year-old actress, recently grabbed headlines with her attire choice at the Prime Video premiere of her series Expats. Renowned for her breakthrough performance in Days of Thunder, Kidman turned heads in a sleek, form-fitting black gown by Atelier Versace. The eye-catching outfit boasted a daring backless design, a high slit, and showcased her figure with ample skin on each side.
Kidman flawlessly accessorized her ensemble with shimmering silver jewelry from Roberto Coin, complemented by rose-tinted makeup, and left her hair cascading loosely. As images of Kidman in her Versace dress circulated online, public reactions were mixed, with some applauding her fashion statement and others offering criticism.
Critics raised concerns about Kidman’s appearance, with social media comments ranging from disappointment in her choice to scrutiny over her physique and perceived elegance. Nonetheless, amid the negative feedback, there were admirers who lauded Kidman’s fashion sense, praising the gown’s beauty and labeling it as one of the best they’ve seen in a while.
Despite the online discourse, Kidman has long been regarded as a fashion icon in the entertainment realm. She credits her love for fashion to the influence of her mother, Janelle, and grandmother, both of whom possessed skills in sewing, embroidering, and knitting. Kidman fondly recalls her upbringing, emphasizing how being surrounded by fashion-loving women instilled a similar passion in her.
In interviews, Kidman has expressed her enduring fondness for fashion and the joy she finds in involving her mother in her dressing process for events. She gravitates towards classic styles with a contemporary twist and isn’t afraid to embrace edginess in her fashion selections. Kidman also considers herself fortunate in the fashion industry, having forged friendships with designers during her early days in the United States.

I Told My Friend She Married a Useless Man, and Now She Hates Me
I take it that everyone of us must navigate our own lives and take responsibility for our decisions? However, it is in our nature as humans to want to help friends who are actually in need. However, what would you do if your friend—the one you always stand by—started confiding in you about all of their issues, repeatedly, and with no sign of stopping? This Reddit member is exactly in that predicament. She wondered if she was managing the matter with her buddy correctly, so she looked to the large internet community for advice.
I(32F) am a single mother of two kids (6M and 5m F). I am a single mother by choice (my kids are donor conceived).
I am lucky enough to have a good job (French teacher in a private school), and a paid off house (parents’ life insurance and inheritance).
Before I had either of my kids, I made sure to have a year’s living expenses saved, then I would take a sabbatical to recover from birth, as well as bond with my kids. While on sabbatical, I still tutor some kids for some extra income.
My friend (34F), just had a baby 2 months ago. She is the breadwinner in her household, and her husband has been unemployed since he was laid off during COVID.
It was great to be pregnant at the same time, as well as having a friend with a newborn. But it has turned sour.
She has been saying how jealous she is of me being able to take off a whole year from work, how she would have loved to not worry about losing their home, how she doesn’t even have a couple hundred dollars in her savings account, let alone a whole year’s worth of living expenses….
I usually ignore it, or brush it off, because I kind of can understand the stress she is under.
Well, starting about 10 days ago, she started hinting at not being able to afford daycare, and any mention of her husband taking care of their kid is brushed off. Then she started remarking on how much free time I must have, which I deflected by saying -truthfully- that being a single mom to a baby and a small kid left me no free time actually.
Then last night she came out with it, and asked if I could “do her a favor” and watch her kid while she’s at work. I was firm, but polite, when I said that I couldn’t, that I am not capable of watching two kids under 6 months.
She started almost begging me, saying she can’t afford daycare, and if she is not back at work, she will lose her job, and they will end up homeless. I again brought up her husband, and she said that he was not good with kids, and isn’t capable of taking care of her kid.
I kept saying no, she kept pushing, until it escalated to her calling me heartless, and me telling her that it’s not my problem she chose to have a kid with a useless man.
Now she blocked me, I am feeling very guilty about what I said, and feeling like an AH.
