Vogue Gets a Dose of Nine's Gorgeous Gals

PopSugar — Fri, 09 Oct 2009 08:27:49 -0700

Nicole Kidman, Kate Hudson, Penelope Cruz, and Marion Cotillard grace the cover of Vogue's November issue in various shades of red to promote their highly anticipated Nine movie. We saw them at the Annie Leibovitz shoot back in February, and the final product looks beautiful. Inside the magazine all of the film's actresses, including Sophia Loren, Judi Dench, and Fergie, posed together. The article gives us a glimpse at how fun filming was for the girls, and Kate even described the experience as "Summer camp." Here are some highlights:

Penelope on her tortured character in the film: "Luckily I don't have to identify with my roles, because if I did I would be dead by now! I've been working since the age of seventeen, and I really haven't stopped. I want to balance it a little more. Instead of making three or four movies a year, I will do one."
Nicole on coming back to work after Sunday Rose: "I had no desire to work after I had my daughter, but to lure me back, this movie was the only way. [But] I'm not playing Claudia Cardinale. Even when I played Virginia Woolf I didn't take the real woman into account."
Kate on getting a role: "I spent most of my childhood singing and dancing and just never had the chance to do it professionally. So when I got the chance to work with Rob, I was so excited, I was out of my mind."

Marion on musicals: "It's been my dream to do an American musical. When I was a child, Annie was my favorite. I just never thought I would get to do it."
Penelope on living with Kate and Fergie: "I've had some very long dinners with Kate, because she loves eating. I mean four-hour dinners. We are exercising so much we don't feel guilty at all."
Nicole on Kate's acting: "Kate should be on Broadway. She should be the lead."

Penelope, Nicole and Daniel Are One Third of Nine

PopSugar — Fri, 30 Jan 2009 16:00:40 -0800

Nicole Kidman and Daniel Day-Lewis were joined on the Rome set of Nine yesterday by a fresh from London Penelope Cruz. Daniel and Nicole tried to stay warm as they filmed late into the night, though Penelope was slightly luckier to be working in the still chilly-looking afternoon. It's just the latest stop on the globe for jetsetting Penelope, though she shouldn't be expected to stay in Italy too long since the Oscars luncheon is happening on Monday in LA.

Flashbulbs Are All in a Day's Work For Nicole Kidman

PopSugar — Thu, 29 Jan 2009 14:00:43 -0800

Nicole Kidman joined Daniel Day-Lewis on the Rome set of Nine yesterday. He's been hard at work on the movie for a few months, but this is the first time we're seeing Nicole in character for the musical. The duo were at the famous Cinecita studios to film a scene in which they had to flee the waiting paparazzi - a scenario Nicole is pretty familiar with. Shy Nicole doesn't love all the flashbulbs in real life but she just might welcome them as part of a scene.

Fall TV Preview: The Nine

PopSugar — Wed, 04 Oct 2006 09:23:27 -0700

What Happened In There? Tonight we will finally begin to find out as The Nine premieres at 10/9c on ABC. The show is based on the lives of nine complete strangers who are survivors of a bank robbery gone bad. Held hostage for 52 hours, only they know what went on inside the bank, but we will find out a little more each week. All we know is that each person's life has dramatically changed by the time they are set free.

Cutie Scott Wolf (Everwood, Party of Five) plays Jeremy Kates a hot-shot surgeon who is about to find out that his fiance, Lizzie Miller (Jessica Collins, The Ghost Whisperer) is pregnant. However, when they come out of the bank, they are no longer engaged and he still is in the dark about his unborn child. What Happened In There?

Other notable cast members include Kim Raver (24) as Kathryn Hale a young, ambitious Assistant D.A who is now questioning the authority under which she is so gainfully employed due to their handling of the hostage situation.

I was definitely intrigued by the end of the episode, but there were parts of the show that were slightly more dramatic than necessary and I am not sure we can handle that much drama back to back with Lost! On the other hand, it could be the perfect marriage. Stay tuned.

Fergie took a break from promoting Nine - check out her singing in the film - to head to Georgia for a public dinner with Josh as they put up a united front.

Nicole Talks About Marriage and Sex- Refreshingly Honest or Over-the-Top?

PopSugar — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 12:00:59 -0800

Nicole Kidman is on the cover of December's GQ UK as she gets out there to promote Nine before its release. Inside the magazine she opens up about her marriages to Tom Cruise and Keith Urban, as well as some of her more extreme bedroom interests. Here's more:

On her romantic past: "I’ve explored obsession. I’ve explored loss and love in terms of being in a grief-stricken place, I’ve explored strange sexual fetish stuff."
On marriage: "You work on it. It’s a very extraordinary, adventurous place to be: incredibly raw, incredibly dangerous and you’re very much out at sea. You're exposed. You could drown. . . When you commit to someone like that, you live and die together by that decision."
On being with Tom Cruise: "I became famous very young. I became very famous because I was the wife of somebody. . . I know my agents at the time were like, "Do not get married! It will ruin your career!" and I was like, "But I’m in love." All I know is that I wasn’t someone interested in fame. And that’s not why I got married. I wanted to work with people who intrigued me."
On keeping things private: "You can’t read somebody’s diary. You shouldn’t read it. I burnt most of my journals after I remarried… You’re only going to find out bad things."

It's rare to hear Nicole discuss her marriage to Tom or even her sex life, so tell us what you think - are her comments okay or over-the-top?
