Nicole Kidman - Aussie Princess

Hollywood megastar, ditched Cruise just in time
Nicole Kidman
You don't have to be naked to be sexy.

Portia De Rossi, Cate Blanchett, Kylie Minogue, Naomi Watts, Elle McPherson… Nicole Kidman joins a long list of Australian sex icons. She’s the only one to marry a vertically challenged loon, but still, look at her… class. Foxy, elegant, Australian class.

Though she was born in Honolulu (Who knew?) she’s actually a dual citizen of both down under and the US. This is handy as otherwise she wouldn’t have received Aussie’s biggest accolade, 'Companion of the Order of Australia’ for all her ostentatious global do-goodery in 2007.

Besides looking all porcelain and pretty on screen, she can also sing, once appearing in Robbie Williams’ Somethin’ Stupid, which hit number 1 back in 2001, and, lest your girlfriend lets you forget, Moulin Rouge’s Come What May with Ewan MacGregor in the same year.

  • Accidentally slept with Tom Cruise during the filming of Eyes Wide Shut. No, wait…
