Nicole Kidman

 

Nicole Mary Kidman, AC (born 20 June 1967) is an American-born Australian actress, model, singer and humanitarian. In 2006, Kidman was made a Companion of the Order of Australia, Australia’s highest civilian honour. In 2006, she was also the highest-paid actress in the motion picture industry.

Don’t be fooled by the porcelain skin and To Die For looks. Nicole Kidman’s got acting chops. The Oscar winner proves that perfection in skill and beauty can both be had.

After her 10-year marriage to Tom Cruise ended in 2001, the media was waiting for Kidman to break a sweat, instead, she kept working, avoiding the media tsunami set off by her ex and his frenzied courting of Katie Holmes. Kidman continued to get richer, literally (earning $3.71 million for a Chanel commercial) and figuratively (winning an Oscar for Best Actress in The Hours in 2003).
