Nicole Kidman admits exploring “strange sexual fetishes” – Xenu?

kidmangq
Oh my God! Here is Nicole Kidman on the cover of the December issue of GQ UK. Um… first, the nice stuff: her body looks amazing. Now, the bad stuff: I can’t even blame a botched Photoshop job on Nicole’s face. I fear that’s really the way her face looks. What the hell is going on in her eyebrow area? Does forehead Botox “sink” into the eyebrows?

Anyway, her interview in GQ UK, Nicole opens up a little bit about her marriage and divorce from Tom Cruise (“All I know is that I wasn’t someone interested in fame. And that’s not why I got married.”) to the celebrity-obsessed media culture (“I burnt most of my journals after I remarried… You’re only going to find out bad things.”) to her sex life (“I’ve explored strange sexual fetish stuff, I’ve explored the mundane aspect of marriage, and monogamy.”). Here’s The Daily Mail’s excerpt:

She has always remained tight-lipped about her ten-year marriage to actor Tom Cruise and vows she will take all her secrets to the grave.

But in one of her most revealing-ever interviews, Nicole Kidman let slip how her experiences of love ranged from ‘mundane’ marriage to ‘strange sexual fetish stuff’.

The 42-year-old actress, currently married to country singer Keith Urban, said her life had been about exploring different types of love.

‘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, I’ve explored the mundane aspect of marriage, and monogamy,’ she said.

But while she confessed she had previously experienced the ‘mundane’ side of relationships, she described her present marriage as ‘raw’ and ‘dangerous’.

‘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.’

Miss Kidman opened up about her love life in a new interview with GQ magazine. The Oscar-winning film star admitted that her marriage to Cruise had been responsible for her rise to fame and revealed that her agents had told her not to tie the knot with the Days Of Thunder star.

‘I became famous very young. I became very famous because I was the wife of somebody,’ she told GQ. ‘I did a lot of good, worthwhile work in Australia between the ages of 14 and 19 and then I married someone famous. And really, despite the huge profile that brought to me, I was still finding my feet.’

‘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.’

Miss Kidman married Cruise in 1990, after they became romantically involved on the set of Days Of Thunder. The couple, who have a son Connor and adopted daughter Isabella, split in 2001, less than two months after their tenth wedding anniversary. While rumours have always been rife about the reasons behind their split, Cruise and Kidman have refused to address the speculation.

‘I want to honour that marriage for what it was, and there is nothing I would go into about that. I have never discussed the intricacies of it and I never will,’ the actress said.

And she revealed how she even set fire to some of her diaries after she married Australian singer Urban in 2006. Talking about people’s obsession with blogs and social networking websites, she said: ‘If you know what is going on inside somebody’s head all the time, that’s not a good place.’

‘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.’

Miss Kidman, who gave birth to daughter Sunday Rose – her first child with Urban – last year, recently finished filming the big screen version of musical Nine. The film, which also stars Judi Dench, Penelope Cruz, Marion Cotillard, Sophia Loren and Kate Hudson, was her first film since Sunday Rose was born.

‘I’d just given birth, so I was like “OK, I’m [still] a woman – I want to do this film. And I do have a life other than simply feeding this baby”,’ she said. ‘I think when you give birth you get itchy to get back to work and you want to feel life still goes on.’

[From The Daily Mail]

So… is the sexual fetish stuff Xenu-related? Let me guess, she gets turned on by audits. Whenever she sees a tin can, she needs to cross her legs. I also found the “I burn my journals” thing interesting. She released parts of her pregnancy-and-making-Australia journal last year, and she originally planned to publish her journals as a book, but then withdrew it because she said it was “too personal”. Now she’s saying she burned the stuff. Weird.

    she is so weird
    the person that finds out what happened in that marriage and publishes it will be a billionaire over night

  2. may says:

    this comment proves she couldn’t careless about anyone but herself that’s why her addopted kids have nothing to do with her.

    it just makes me sick
    most women i know are happy to care for their innocent helpless little newborns

    she makes me ill

  4. Firestarter says:

    Like with all the other celebs and their sex lives- Do not care to know anything! Thanx!

  5. CC says:

    poor thing. she’s beginning to look like Lindsay Lohan

  6. Tess says:

    Kidman’s every bit as daft as Cruise.

    She and Naomi Watts are an interesting pair.

    Just sayin’.

  7. Toe says:

    Being married to Tom and having Xenu share the bed all the time is aweful. Thank god she left that part of her life behind her and still sane.
    The cover: she looks good photoshopped.

  8. Just a Poster says:

    I think it is the eyeshadow.

    But what I find very interesting is this little nugget.

    ” I burnt most of my journals after I remarried… You’re only going to find out bad things.”

    WOW!

  9. stacy says:

    she sounds snobby in this interview. i never knew what the big deal was about her.

  10. Westender says:

    Nicole said:” I burnt most of my journals after I remarried… You’re only going to find out bad things.”
    I doubt she burnt her journals, I bet she has them hidden away in case Tom does anything to harrass her or in someway mistreats the children they had together. Why even mention having journals or burning them unless she is trying to get some message to Tom?
    Image is everything to Tom so he will not risk having his “secrets” come out.

  11. Cristina says:

    Does anyone know if she is/was also a scientologist or if she was just on the sidelines of toms obsession?

    I feel very bad for Tom n her kids. They don’t have a single normal parent to look up to. I wonder how they feel that their “mom” just moved on without them, she never even mentions them. Tom is clearly a nut, but maybe she is acutally the wierder of the two

  12. Sumodo says:

    “Raw,” “dangerous” “fetish” ??? Nicole Kidman? Her p-r gal told her to say that. I think the botox went to her brain. She’s going “walkabout” like that other Aussie wacko, Mel. How about “wack-about?”

  13. r says:

    I think that a person has a tendency to journal about things they need to work through. That stuff has a high possibility to be bad stuff. If my journals were published, people would think I was the most miserable person ever. However, I journal to work through emotions not record my day. Nicole my be the type to record. Who knows. I wouldn’t read much into it. It more has to do with the nature of journaling.

  14. rose says:

    I do wonder about her relationship with her adopted children. she used to be so pretty as well. too much surgery

  15. Icecat says:

    That whole picture is wrong to me..eek.

  16. danielle says:

    Lol, poor Nicole! She actually makes kinky sex sound boring! She seems so ice queenish anymore, hard to imagine her taking her clothes off. And I loved her after To Die For.

  17. AC says:

    Oh my god you guys… she didn’t say she didn’t like caring for her newborn she wanted to still remain herself after giving birth. There is NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT. Whats wrong with still wanting to prove that you’re a woman, you’re sexy and talented and still have a career and not just a milk machine (for baby you love, yes but still there’s more to you than your breasts). My sister is glad she still has work that she can go to and get out of the house every once in a while. It keeps you grounded and keeps you sane.

  18. Just a Poster says:

    Okay kinda o/t but does anyone else find it strange that there are 2 pics of Nic and 2 stories about sci today? Does anyone else get the “back off Sci, don’t mess with me” vibe?

    Most likely not about Nic Kidman but someone out there is sending a very loud message to this cult.

    Or.. I have just been reading on way too many gossip sites lately.

  19. Just a Poster says:

    AC I agree with you.

  20. Sumodo says:

    This is dated October 8 from GOOP.com: “Relationships Part Two
    We posed this question to some of the women we know and love a few months back. Now, from the male perspective comes four beautiful and candidly moving essays on the subject of relationships. You knocked our socks off, boys. “What does it take to sustain a happy and successful relationship/marriage?”…

  21. Aviatrix says:

    Aside from the whacked out interview…WTF is up with the gloved arm? It’s at such a rigid, unnatural angle and noticably lengthened. We’re the same height, so don’t say it’s because she’s tall. After the January Jones dialogue about her chest and GQ’s adamant denial about digitally enhancing her, I would have expected better editing from them.

  22. Tess says:

    Sigh.

    Having a baby is the ESSENCE of life.

    There is nothing more powerful and life-affirming.

    Kidman is Clueless.

  23. Lantana says:

    What I found interesting was the comment, “I’ve explored the mundane aspect of marriage, and monogamy”. Does that mean that she is no longer monogamous? Or does it mean that now she is instead exploring the exciting aspects of “marriage, and monogamy”?

  24. Gladdy says:

    She has a lot of secrets from her marriage to Cruise that stem from her quasi-involvement with Scientology. They keep extensive taped records of “audits” which delve into extremely personal issues with their members. Just after they broke up, I read a report where she was overheard sobbing something about “if any of this gets out my career is over….”. When you play with Xenu, you play by their rules. They can destroy you.

  25. michellllle says:

    Re-touched or not she looks amazing, eye make-up aside. What a figure!

  26. Mia says:

    I think she revealed her fetishes so the Clams can’t. The Crash director mentioned the same thing about the church releasing information from his audits to smear him. Nicole took the offensive, instead of the defensive. Maybe more members should do the same.

    She looks amazing. Couldn’t care less about the Botox. She did it. Can’t reverse it. No point in harping on about it every time there’s a picture of her.

  27. Raven says:

    I believe her about burning her diaries. She’s gotten married and is now in a different phase of her life. She no longer needs them, plus having them around somewhere is an accident looking for a place to happen. I remember Jackie Onassis burning her diaries before she died. For someone who is very private and wants to stay that way, it makes sense.

  28. lrm4joy says:

    She is not telling the truth-that’s why her stories constantly change.
    Also,wasn’t there a rumor that she has nannies for the baby? Like she was at home feeding her all the time?
    Lainey mentions that she bans bottles in her house-they are only in the nanny’s place on-site.
    Even if that’s not true,i don’t trust what she says to be true-she’s a weirdo.
    And what’s interesting is that she and cruz both seem far stranger now than when they were married. They try so hard to appear interesting or normal,and in the process of making stuff up (lying),they come off as whacked.

    I swear,celebrities should just be themselves. It cannot be any weirder than the faux images we can see right through.

  29. Lem says:

    You know the sexual fetish stuff was all Kravitz! You know you’re a little jealous. You know the freak comes out when you get out of a long term serious relationship. You know Lenny was at the right place at the right time to turn her out.

  30. Lem says:

    OT: I have a fresh set of puffy puckers from the dentist and it’s easy to see how Nic, Linds and the rest stay so thin. I can’t eat or drink a darned thing without wearing most of it.
    I can’t imagine how collagen makes your mouth feel. I can see my own lips for pete’s sake. They may look lux but they’re useless, USELESS I tell ya!

    I wonder what Nic’s face feels like to her? tight? tingly?
    anyone?

  31. original kate says:

    that is such an unflattering photo. yikes!

  32. Juice In LA says:

    Poor Nik. First, she just looks so awful and plastic.

    Second- Doesn’t anyone remember “Eyes Wide Open”? (Ok, you are forgiven if you dont.) I bet that is the “fetish ” exploration she is talking about.

    Sheesh. Look, the woman thinks wearing a sheer elbow glove is avant garde… No way she’s ever seen the tail end of a cat o’nine tails.

  33. TwinkleToes says:

    This woman is a pathological liar. Can’t believe a word she says. Imagine how much energy she must burn trying to be someone, something she isn’t. She completely changed her looks, a la Michael Jackson and then she also has to remember all of her lies. Just the amount of money and time removing all of those freckles she so hates about herself. I’m surprised she never got those droopy eyelids of hers lifted. She never had pretty eyes and now they are looking worse.

  34. Firestarter says:

    Come on, she does not pick what she wears for the cover shoot, stylists and editors do, so you cannot blame her for what they put her in. Yes, she has to approve it to a degree, but no, she is not telling them what she will wear.

  35. Praise St. Angie! says:

    eesh…compare this pic to the other one posted today…

    http://www.celebitchy.com/78733/former_scientologist_on_how_tom_cruise_had_him_talk_for_hours_to_inanimate_objects/

    she really jacked up her face.

  36. loca says:

    Awww I LOVE Nicole.

  37. snappyfish says:

    I read once that she didn’t really accept the whole scientlogy thing and that was the reason that Tommy Girl left her. That she wanted Colin and Isabella to have a more tradional education and not attend scientology school.

    She is catholic and never bought into the scientology is a religion theme. Which it isn’t.

  38. K McFarlane says:

    Why do celebrities always have to make their life experiences seem more important and meaningful than anyone elses? You don’t EXPLORE the mundane aspects of marriage – you experience them.

  39. Orion says:

    “Sigh.Having a baby is the ESSENCE of life. There is nothing more powerful and life-affirming.”

    How do you know? How many other meaningful things have you actually tried in life besides breeding?

  40. la chica says:

    she looks ridiculous. she’s desperately trying to hold on to her career and will do and say anything. isn’t that why she married Xenu in the first place — to become a movie star?

  41. Lola says:

    love her. always will!

  42. Bambi says:

    The contents of the article, much like the cover photo, seem very artificial. How does one “explore obsession?” Did she write a thesis on it or something?

  43. K McFarlane says:

    I fully agree, Bambi.

    I bet the strange sexual fetish stuff was when she dated Stephen Bing – certainly Elizabeth Hurley’s into it bigtime and they were together for a couple of years. Or maybe (zzz) she thinks filming Eyes Wide Shut counts as exploring it.

  44. jayem says:

    Juice in LA – That’s what I was thinking. She was referring to her movies when she said that, not her marriage.

    (Wasn’t it Eyes Wide Shut??)

  45. Misty_* says:

    Some thoughts:
    – Kidman in a cover as kinky sex goddess is laughable, to say the least.

    – Nicole sounds so over-dramatic and theatrical. She has this “my-life-
    is-an-act” vibe to her. Just look at these excerpts:

    “I’ve explored loss and love in terms of being in a grief-stricken place, I’ve explored strange sexual fetish stuff, I’ve explored the mundane aspect of marriage, and monogamy”

    ‘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.’

    *Who* speaks like this? This whole bullshit sounds like something you’d find in a cheap novel.

    – I don’t believe her agents didn’t want her to marry Tommy Girl. He was one of the biggest stars in the world at the time and she was a Jane Doe. No one gave a damn about her. I wonder what is this “good, worthwhile work in Australia” she did between ages 14 and 19. School plays, maybe? 🙂

    – The quote about the baby sounded strange (ungrateful and insensitive, even) coming from a woman who spent years being desperate for a pregnancy. Having a baby doesn’t mean you have to resign from life, but she spoke as if the baby was a burden in her life.

    – Kidman had no itch to get back to work. She decided to do Nine because she needs to save her ass. Her career became a joke. She did some of the worst mainstream films of the decade and her adventures in the indie film world were even more bombastic (Fur, Birth, Margot At The Wedding, honestly?). Nine is a great chance of success for her. Not because of her, but because of the other stars and the oddity of seeing Daniel Day Lewis singing.

  46. Kat says:

    Lighten up. It’s movie premere time. She’s doing this to spark interest in her, to promote the movie. Stars always give wacky interviews before they have a movie coming out. I luv her and can’t wait for the movie.

  47. bollywoodhunk says:

    i like work their with her in hour of shooting

  48. ell says:

    I think she looks absolutely beautiful. Someone mentioned that she has nothing to do with her adopted children. I believe that the Xenu warriors have a lot to do with that. You know, fight for your kids and we spill all of your secrets (obtained during their auditing bull shit). I really hope that those kids see Scientology for what it really is and break free.

  49. lisa says:

    MY THING IS THIS WHY SHE TELLING THE STORY NOW CAN BE BECAUSE HER ALBUM IS COMING OUT, PEOPLE WILL DO ANYTHING FOR PROMOTION IT SEEMS

  50. jojo says:

    I suppose the way she talks about “sexual fetish” is probably about the first time in her life she got the power to control and explore men head to toe the way she wanted.
