Saint Nic Gives ‘Compass’ To Kids

Saint Nic Gives ‘Compass’ To Kids

Nicole Kidman (in Prada) brings smiles to an audience of sick children, their families and the staff of Sydney Children’s Hospital Randwick as she hosts a special screening of The Golden Compass on Tuesday.

“This is a small gesture and I would just like to say I wish you all a merry Christmas and a happy new year,” she said. “I play a villain in this film, so to all the little kids – don’t stay.”

“You put a big smile on all our faces and make us feel happy,” said 7-year-old cancer patient Cooper Smeaton. “Thank you for everything you do for us, we love you.”

“We’re deeply grateful to Nicole for her constant generosity,” foundation CEO Elizabeth Crundall said. “For many of the children attending this screening it will be a rare and welcome break from fighting a serious illness in hospital. Nicole’s ongoing support, kindness and dedication is extraordinary.”

The screening was held at Hoyts Fox Studios in the Entertainment Quarter of Sydney, Australia.

Peep more pictures of Saint Nic inside the hospital, touching the hearts of some very special kids at Live News.

I suspect so many of the negative posts here are from 3 categories of people:

1. A Keith Urban “fan” who still harbors a hope that he would dump his wife and hook up with her instead. Dream on!

2. Another type of Keith Urban “fan” who takes every opportunity to smear Nicole simply because they can’t bear to see Keith so madly in love with his wife.

3. Fans of another actress(es) who are mad that Nicole kept getting choice roles and megabucks while their idols are still out of work.

i don’t think she is a saint.not even Jolie!she is a good person but not a saint!

I think its katie holmes who is jealous of nicole beeautiful physique and extraordinary legs…..Hey katie stop pretending to be natalie, I know you chose that name in high school for your alter ego…ahahhah

He he he … that’s a good one, Miapocca.

Oh and Joann - how original - you picked one of her character’s names! How sweet!

Natalie I guess maybe you don’t have two names, Deb seems to have a grasp on the language. I guess the real question is why do you waste your time here?

None of these people are saints. They are actors, celebrities and people. Nothing more.

#51 - or a person who doesn’t think NK is all that and a bag of chips!

Stunning.She is a true beauty!i’m happy for her, she seems a good person and a very intelegent woman.thanks for give you name to these causes!

don’t like her in black, but her body is sexier than ever.she looks divine with her hair strainght.
Natalie, leave normal people alone!you’re just and example how can people be disgusting and rude!

Jolie fan @ 12/18/2007 at 1:10 pm

people should thanks to people like Jolie and Nicole for giving their support to these special causes. why do not critize people that only goes shopping or stupid concerts as Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise???i know it’s easy hate beautiful and popular woman, but pelase make an effort!

Damn, Nicole Kidman fans are a nasty lot! Shows what kind of people actually like this old broad. Just another bad reflection on her, too.

She needs to stop dressing like she’s 20 or even 30. She put so much plastic in her face she looks scary. Poor kids.

So.. I have to be a Keith Urban fan to dislike Nicole??? I can’t just dislike her because she is a famewhore who would most likely use anyone or anything to get what she wants.

Sorry, that happened wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy before those 2 hooked up.

So she treats a bunch of sick kids to a film based on books about killing off God and established religion. Wow how uplifting. So what has she done for her favorite charity during the holidays in the years she didn’t have a kiddie film to hype?

Good point yawn, and even better - how nice it would have been to attend this event with her children, right? Where are they? It’s been more than six months since their Mother’s Day outing!

Ginger girl @ 12/18/2007 at 1:46 pm

She looks great here. But she should go back to her red hair, she would look younger , altough here she looks fresh and happy!
“based on books about killing off God “, did you read the books yawn???don’t think so…

nicole is a nice person and at least she has some substance to her unlike robot scientology c*nt katie holmes

Kidman wins damages over snub claim
1 day ago

Actress Nicole Kidman, the face of Chanel No.5, has accepted substantial damages over a claim that she snubbed the perfume by promoting a competitor.

The 40-year-old Oscar winner was not at London’s High Court for the settlement of her libel action against The Daily Telegraph.

Her solicitor, John Kelly, told Mr Justice Gray that she had suffered considerable embarrassment and distress over the story, which appeared last month.

The item in the newspaper’s Spy column falsely alleged that, whilst in London to promote her new film, The Golden Compass, Ms Kidman had put Chanel’s nose out of joint by attending press junkets with a bottle of Jo Malone, her “favourite perfume”, close at hand.

It also falsely claimed that despite having signed a multi-million pound contract with Chanel, the actress was openly promoting a competitor’s product and “kept dabbing” on the perfume whenever she had a moment.

Mr Kelly said that the story meant that Ms Kidman had acted in an unprofessional and disloyal manner by brazenly snubbing Chanel, had flouted the terms of her contractual obligations and had proved she could not be trusted to honour them.

He added that Telegraph Media Group Ltd now accepted that the allegations were untrue and, indeed, had established that the source of the article invented the story.

It had agreed to pay Ms Kidman her legal costs and substantial undisclosed damages, which she intended to donate to Unifem, the United Nations Development Fund for Women.

David Price, the newspaper’s solicitor-advocate, sincerely apologised on its behalf.

Nicole is nothing but a ****** famewhore….she was one before she hooked up with Urban and she will continue to be one way after they are over. Why bring him into this? Not everyone who dislikes her is an Urban fan.

she is my favorite actress, why?because an actress can’t only have talent!she needs to be intelegent, smart, kind, classic and of course be beautiful.Nicole has sense of humanity and don’t know why it’s so popular right now critize her!

she looks terrific. Finnaly after the nightmare of Sunday…

i love that woman !!!! she is so nice and has a kind heart , plus+she looks great (as always) . ps: natalie you are sick .

lilly you b8tch, you are a sick hore ass, you got some problms , you f8uckin ******* .

#72 - People in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones! I’d be very proud to have you guys as fans!

Hellagood @ 12/18/2007 at 2:48 pm

Love her. Never tired of just watching her.

People you are giving to much importance to Natalie. We all know she is obsessed with Nic, let her alone with her obsession!

I’m a fan of Nic and i’m very pround she supports this type of ocasion…and she was great in Golden Compass…
