Nicole Kidman Looks Chic In A Knit Balenciaga Suit Set While Posing For 'The Hollywood Reporter'
The Golden Globe winner wore her dirty blonde hair down, parted in the center and styled into voluminous waves. As for her makeup look, the Eyes Wide Shut actress opted for bold winged black eyeliner, smokey eyeshadow, rosy blush, and a dark pink lipstick.
Kidman posed for the shoot alongside fellow actresses Anna Sawai, Naomi Watts, Jennifer Aniston, Brie Larson, Jodie Foster, and Sofía Vergara. For the cover story, Kidman discussed her self-care routine, lying to land an acting gig, creating chemistry with other actors and more.
The Emmy winner revealed that she still struggles with knowing when to say "no." She told the aforementioned stars and outlet: "I still have trouble with no. Part of what we do is dive into things that are deeply uncomfortable. And I’ve had to teach myself to not always go, 'I can’t do that.' My initial reaction can be that instead of, 'OK, ease into it.' Because I need to be coaxed sometimes. I’m still finding that compass."
She also recalled having a tough day after shooting her hit HBO series Big Little Lies and struggling to cope with stress. "I threw a rock because [the door] was locked and I couldn’t get in. I’d never done that in my life. I obviously [had a lot] pent up. I broke the whole thing. It cost a fortune. (Laughs.)"
Kidman continued: "And then I went back the next day and I said to Alexander [Skarsgard] and Jean-Marc [Vallée], 'I threw a rock through the window,' and they were like, 'Whoa …' I said, 'I was kind of pissed off.'"
"But there’s a way in which we operate where the show must go on, and so you just keep going — you show up and you do it and do it and do it and do it. And a lot of times, it’s six months of 12-, 14-hour days and there really isn’t the time to go, 'I need to take care of myself,'" she added.
The mom of two also discussed her mental health journey after shooting her recent Prime Video show, Expats that premiered earlier this year. "After Expats, I went and did a comedy because I went crazy with my own psychology. I was like, 'This is unhealthy.' And it’s something that I think we need to talk about as actors — protecting your body so that you can live for as long as you are given on this earth. Because it’s very tough on the psyche."
