Nicole Kidman - “Vanity Fair” October 2007
Nicole Kidman bares all for the October 2007 cover of Vanity Fair, as photographed by Patrick Demarchelier. Here are some highlights:
On her miscarriage while still married to then-husband Tom Cruise: “From the minute Tom and I were married, I wanted to have babies. And we lost a baby early on, so that was really very traumatic. And that’s when it came that we would adopt Bella.”
On hubby Keith Urban’s rehab stint: “I’ve learned an enormous amount having a relationship with someone who is in recovery. I’m more than willing to walk it with him. … We were in a very, very, very bad, painful place and have managed to step through it, and I hope that gives some people some hope who may be in the same place. And that’s enough said. Anything else is overindulgent and unnecessary right now.”
On handling a long-distance relationship: “Two weeks is still too long for us (to be apart). We like one week. We start to hurt after seven days.”
On having kids with Urban.: “I’m yearning to have one. I think I would be very sad if I wasn’t able to have a baby. Keith knows I want one, and he has been getting there slowly.”
On her children with ex Tom Cruise: Isabella, 14, and Connor, 12: “I called Tom (from Australia) and said, ‘Guess what? Bella wants blue hair.’ I go with my daughter to the hair salon to get it dyed blue, and I look at her and I think, My God, it’s cool!”
On her personality traits: “I get engaged and I get married — that’s my thing,” Kidman says after revealing that she was engaged to a man she declined to identify after her split from Cruise and before she hooked up with Urban. “I wasn’t ready. We weren’t ready.”
Nicole’s Vanity Fair issue hits newsstands in NY/LA on Wednesday and nationwide September 11. The baby-in-the-jacket shot is the hotness!!!! (It’s her niece Sybella.)

She is so classy - NOT! Her children must be proud. What a great role model for Bella. Nice comments about the marriage - ah yeah - it sounds like it is a real solid marriage - what a joke! She is also a big fat liar - they don’t see each other every week. KEITH flies out to see her every two weeks. She hasn’t gotten her **** on a plane to see him once while she is filming in Oz, and please don’t use that as an excuse - she films for three weeks and has a week off!
Interesting that she is going to try to have a baby with Keith. Why didn’t she have one with Tom. I mean obviously he can get someone pregnant right? That’s his baby with Katie. Even though Suri looks so much like Bella Travolta it’s creepy! I hope Nicole gets pregnant to really get the rumors flying over Tom being able to have a baby.
So why is she bringing up the past now like 10 years later?
Is her career going that slow that she needs to ride on Suri’s tide?
With the rant all I hear is Jennifer Aniston. Shut up already Nicole Tom is your past, Keith is your present,,, focus on that please!!!!
I have one more comment - glad to see Keith has the common sense to say no kids right now - whether it is because he is not ready, because of his recovery, or he just doesn’t see a future here. If he isn’t ready for a child, she shouldn’t be demanding a child from him. Consider yourself blessed that you have Bella and Connor - spend time with them for a change!
its so nice of Tom to still answer her phone calls. he such a nice guy.
#29 Jacobe - “girl is so ripping off tom cruise’ pose with suri”???
Didn’t realize Tom has a copyright on that pose. LOL!!!! Actually, Tom was copying the pose of Paul McCartney, who held his baby just like that for a Vanity Fair cover.
#31 Natalie - how do you know so much about her work and travel schedule? Are you stalking her?
JoAnn - don’t make me laugh - it’s called reading articles, and you can also look up his tour schedule - there’s your proof that he goes more than a week without seeing her!
Ahhhh… Nat just can’t stay away. Nat, Nat, Nat, like you know exactly how often Nicole and Keith see each other?! Just like you know how much time she spends with her children….. Please! Also, I didn’t read that as Nicole “demanding” a baby from him. She wants one, he is getting there. That is what she said. Stop being to dramatic!
SHE IS HOT!!!! Nicole is the greatest actress and she’s a great person, she is classy, sweet and still very cool…she gets her daughter’s way of thinking, she is not a snob, she is like everyone of us!!!
She rocks and you got to deal with it!!!!
Ahhhh but Nat… Nicole didn’t say that they see each other every week. She said that they “like one week”, anything longer hurts and that “two weeks is still to long”. So before you go calling Nicole a liar… maybe you should make sure you read what is printed first.
Here’s your proof pr person! Right from the horse’s mouth!
They have joint custody, but Kidman admitted Bella and Connor prefer Los Angeles and being close to Dad.

pr person - since you admire her so much, please share with us why she would have to exploit her niece again? I can see Tom and Paul posing with their children, but why did she have to bring her niece into the picture - why not have her children since you seem to think they have spent the whole spring and summer there? (By the way, they have been at CofS camp while Tom has been in Germany.) She uses the words yearning and that she would be very sad if she didn’t have a baby - I call that a guilt trip on Keith if she doesn’t have one!
i love nicole kidman! she is soo beautiful!
Nat….. because I question you knowing how much time she spends with her children, you throw out there that I seem to think that they have spent the whole spring and summer there? Tsk.. Tsk… you are putting words in my mouth. Who cares if the children prefer LA?It doesn’t take away the fact that they ALSO love their mother, and do spend time with her. Which IS MY point. I also read that the children have been at a Scieno summer camp…. so what?
Regarding the picture with her niece… you say “exploit” (a little drama again)… I say who cares… the baby’s mother obviously didnt….. and it is a cute picture.
I don’t care what others say, for me Nicole is an actress first and foremost and she is a good one. I don’t care if she botox for the rest of her life!!!
I would too, if I can afford it and its maintenance.
I have no problem with the kids going to camp, so why wasn’t she photographed with her own kids - why does she have to use her sister’s kid and then cry about a miscarriage she had over 10 years? Funny, Tom was in last year’s October issue!
Most of you guys are very mean and rude to her!
Nicole is 40 and still looks fabulos and beautiful,the pictures are gorgeous and show an amazing actress that doesn’t deserve to be seen in such an impolite way!I wish I’d look like that when I’m her age!
I don’t know whats wrong with you people.
So what are we suppose to believe VF October 2007:
Speaking about her experience, aged 23, the Australian star said: ‘From the minute Tom and I were married, I wanted to have babies.’
or . .
Hello Magazine 1992
“It’s funny. I’m not opposed to having children. I definitely want them at some stage. Just not right now.”
She is truly one of the most beautiful woman around. I think she is very nice and not sure why people like to put her down. I am always sad when I don’t like a film she does, but I feel that way about all my favorite actors movies. Can’t win them all!!!
Who knows why she wasn’t photographed with her own children. They are older; maybe the mag wanted a pic with a baby to go with the article, Nicole wanting a baby, and the babies that she has miscarried. Who knows ….. seriously what is the big deal?
Nat, what do you care that she “cries” about a miscarriage from 10 years ago? It can be a traumatic experience for many women, as it obviously was for Nicole. Good for her to be able to talk about it!
#48 Natalie - actually both stories are credible!
Based on VF, at age 23, that would have been 1990. Nicole wanted to have babies, but suffered a miscarriage.
Some women I know who had miscarriages would wait a little while before trying again. Different women react differently to the trauma of a miscarriage.
So two years after her miscarriage,in 1992, she might have given that interview to Hello! “I’m not opposed to having children. I definitely want them at some stage. Just not right now.”
Ah yea pr person - been there - done that. I miscarried with my first pregnancy! I spend time with the kids I have now and don’t need to dwell on the past!
Well, good for you, Nat. Perhaps you’re up for “Mother of the Year” award. Lol….
I see her fans are as classy as she is JoAnn!
I love Nic, I think she’s a classic beauty, and as far as the cover of the magazine is concerned, not my favorite, although she’s already, or nearly 40, if you’ve got it flaunt it I suppose
Natalie:
I have talked to people who have worked with her (I work in a related media). They say she is one of the hardest working actresses in the business. Always does her research and knows her lines and gracefully does take after take without complaint.
They also said she talks to her kids daily, emails them constantly (although both she and Tom do limit internet access because of the cruel things that are written about them both), and with regards to Keith and the kids–she sees them a lot more than the press documents. She either owns or rents a private jet and can be with them or Keith in an instant and vice versa.
You know if she had physical custody of the kids, no one would say a word about Tom not seeing them every day. In fact, most of the blog comments don’t say a word about Tom not being with the kids. How hypocritical is that. After the divorce she had the kids until as a unit (Tom, Nicole and Bella and Connor) they all decided Tom was the better parent to live with. What is wrong with that? Much better than an acrimonious custody battle. And she apparently according to my sources and reading between the lines is really happy they have Katie as a stepmother. Bravo Nicole for taking the high road.
But I’m glad you believe everything you read and can speak with authority about her even tho you have never met her and don’t appear to know people who have.
Before my mum had me,she had a misscariage,which was of course very painful!After a while she got me but sometimes we still talk about it so she can get it of her chest,so I don’t see why still talking a bout it after a long time is wrong.Every women deals with it in a diffrent way with it but there just is no “Right”way to do it!So nothing wrong with Nicoles statement!

girl is so ripping off tom cruise’ pose with suri, with the whole baby in the jaket thing! whats with that?!?!
——————————————
that’s the first thing i thought when i saw that, the suri thing…
and i really don’t think she had work done, high quality close up pics of her always show her definite signs of aging, esp with a good amount of wrinkles around the eyes and mouth, i would hope if someone were to spend so much money getting something done, they wouldn’t bother to leave the wrinkles
#56-Dancer, you did your homework!
What you wrote is consistent with what I heard from a friend in the entertainment field. I might add that she’s known to be ALWAYS showing up on time on her film sets, and is very courteous to her co-workers.
Nicole should have been married to Prince Albert of Monaco in first place. She was perfect match for him, BLOND, graceful, very beautiful and eternal young (thanks for botoxs).
She could have fulfilled the shoes of Prince Grace of Monaco somehow and she didn’t also have to have kids. She is kind of used to these kind of guys !??!!
