Nicole Kidman’s Botox Face is killing me. Killing me with laughter! I’ll say it again – I actually like Nicole. She used to be a wonderful actress, and she still amuses me to no end. She’s so unbelievably beautiful – or else, she would be if she would stop with the ‘Tox. Nicole is in Toronto right now – she’s promoting her work in Rabbit Hole, a film she did with Aaron Eckhart, who is in some of these photos. The film is about a married couple (Kidman and Eckhart) who are grieving after the accidental death of their son. Which is the plot of many, many movies, it seems. Grief porn. Anyway, Nicole told reporters: “I’ve nursed the film from the very beginning. I read a review of the play Rabbit Hole when it played in New York and then my company Blossom Films went after the rights. I had a sense, even before I’d seen the play, that it could be opened out from a stage play to a big screen film. I felt it very deeply. It’s about how they move on with their lives and how they connect with the people in their lives. But there’s humor there as well, it’s not all bleak.” Sounds bleak to me.
Back to the photos and Nicole’s face. Now, I have no idea what possessed the photographers to get so close to Nic’s ToxFace. But the photos – and her expressions – oh my God. Am I being too harsh? Because I did find one photo where Nicole’s forehead is something less than marble-smooth:
Of course, after excerting herself for that one photo, she might have needed a nap. Also: I still swear those aren’t her real lips, although I will give her credit for toning her sh-t down, in general. This isn’t as bad as it has been.
Here are some photos from the premiere too… in some of the photos from the premiere, Nicole is doing the hand-on-belly thing, like she’s trying to start a rumor that she’s pregnant. Oh, Nicole. Get a new move!

I think she’s still beautiful and, it seems to me, a lot happier without Tom. Hate it when she wears red lipstick, though.
I think you are reaching. She definitely looks fine.
frozen face.
Nicole used to be one of the most beautiful woman on earth. Now she is not herself anymore, she doesn’t look bad, but she seems another person.
I don’t know, she definitely looks better in these photos. Not as plastic as she used to be. Her eyes are a little crazy though.
Upper lips do not naturally widen at the corners: FILLER.
Also, the Tox and nose work. Too bad, ’cause she didn’t need any of it…
I like Nicole, and I think she looks fine. Hopefully she will continue to lay off the tox and fillers a bit more.
As I always say, I do not get the hate for this woman.
I have always wonder what provoked her to tox up her face.
What kind of cr*p did Cruise say to her when he dumped her?
Something set her off thinking she needed to tweak her face.
And it all kicked off with that marriage dying.
At least she has decided to be auburn again.
i think that is her real nose. it has always looked that way (from my memory). i recently watched practical magic and could not get over how gorgeous she was. she does look a LOT less plastic. now if she would just stop with the lip injections AND take off those awful veneers, she’d be fine.
and yes, i think the pics are so weird looking because she has serious crazy eyes going on.
her lips were a lot thinner before. She looks fine in the first pictures but there’s something weird about the last two
She’s not as bad as before and she’s definitely better than others who are addicted to the stuff.
Her lips do look weird (and so is that look in her eyes) but at least they are not LiLo’s fish lips (yuk)
Her forehead is not botoxed, or she would not be able to lift her brows like that. I’m also seeing her being able to slightly furrow her brow. For some reason she is laying of it. Interesting.
She looks a lot better, I am happy to see that she is easing off on the lip injections. No one wants to end up in Meg Ryan territory. Aging is a bitch.
I think her new movie is going to flop. Again. Aaron Eckhart is a good actor, but he can’t carry a movie to save himself (example: that movie that he did with Aniston). He should stick to supporting parts.
The film also sounds like a story line that had been done to death.
I must say, I’m not seeing what many other posters here are. She WAS pretty in her younger days. I believe that she still would be, had she left well enough alone. But she insists on f***ing up her face. She looks so stern, so…frozen. How on earth does she emote in a film where she’s playing a grieving parent? I just don’t get it. Actors should know that their ability to express emotion is key to their job. Lose that ability, you lose your effectiveness.
Whoever it is that convinces these poor people that plastic surgery or artificial enhancements would be a good idea should be put away for life.
Re the movie being guilt pr0n… probably true.
This appeals to people who lost someone and are familiar with that dialogue.
Except when I go see movies that have a so-sad story and I expect to make myself feel better via their epic, Hollywood-esque sadness of life, I always find myself more angry than comforted.
The people on screen are more beautiful and wealthy than I am in real life, and so I say, “What do they know of suffering?” Bah!
She looks pretty, but she still obviously does Botox and fillers but she’s either showing more restraint or it’s been a while since her last procedure. I like her makeup and hair color, very flattering.
her and keith look like they get down animalistic-style. lol 🙂
She is no different to all the others, just has a problem with the natural aging process because of media and societal prejudice is all.
She looks great in those pictures. And obviously NOT botoxed: she has wrinkles (honestly the Botox story is getting so annoying. Move on.). And she’s still a wonderful actress. She’s getting rave reviews for her performance in ‘Rabbit Hole’.
she is beautiful. and she couldnt do that if she was botoxed up. she looks fine
She looks like the cover of Bowie’s Hunky Dory. She looks completely different than she did in one of my favorite movies of all time, Days of Thunder.
I think she has to make crazy eyes just to show emotion!
I wonder if she wants the ten years back she wasted with Tom Cruise? Then I forgive her for messing up her gorgeous face. I love women who are aging normally like Susan Sarandon and Meryl Steep, oh and Helen Mirren!
Some of you don’t know very much about Botox. Unless you paralyze all of the muscles, you can still move your face, and yes, make wrinkle lines. She has more facial movement in these pics vs. some I have seen, and less plastic. She had some made late last yr/early this yr which were obviously taken right after microderm abrasion. She looked like polished stone. That is not her original nose. Or lips.
I’ll take any Aaron Eckhart I can get. Please, may I have some more Aaron on Hot Guy Friday?
I agree with @Lydia. Each one of these pics shows her making a funky face in one way or another. Get some better pics and I might be able to set an opinion.
Yes, texasmom, I agree – there’s human emotion in there somewhere, but the only way she can get it out at this point is through the eyeballs.
She was such a striking, unique beauty. Now she’s one of those dime-a-dozen women who are simply variations of Kate Beckinsale. Kind of pretty in a weird, painful, non-human way.
This actually shows some improvement in the lips and also the forehead.
Sorry, but Nicole does not look like “the face of Botox” and since it’s killing you Kaiser, get over it!
Blech. Can’t stand this awful bitch- I used to respect her acting ability, and might still if she had shown herself to be in the same class as Meryl Streep, but her unending bullshit about her marriage to T.C. and her “pregnancy”, (uh huh- right) and the inability to just age gracefully has made me really dislike her. Sheesh- she couldn’t even make a go of a movie set in her homeland with Hugh Jackman! Granny Freeze is past her prime.
I think she looks pretty good here compared to what she used to do to her face. I’m impressed her forehead can move.
The lips look better. I kind of wonder what her lips would look like without the filler since they thin with it. But I’m glad her third lip is less pronounced, that thing grosses me out!
She looks like she is trying to be Zoolander in the 7th photo.
I think she’s still very pretty, but whatever she’s done has taken a toll and the plastic look is so not good. It’s a shame, because she is naturally gorgeous. Hopefully she does back off all that stuff.
I think she is and has always been stunning….. I think she looks great. I think more than anything, she has stayed out of the sun her entire life and therefore has less age spots, wrinkles, etc.. I am sure she prob. has fillers and botox, def. had peels on her face, etc… but I honestly have never seen the frozen face that she is so criticized for – she is raising her brows in these pictures and you can’t do that with a face full of botox? I have never understood all the criticism?!
Her hair looks like a birch broom in a fit.
I wish she’d dye it back to her original deeper red and maybe try a hot oil treatment.
Just another needless attacks on Nicole Kidman.
Yeah we get it. You dont like her.
Personally I think she is beautiful.
with all of the effort spent on her face, i am always amazed that she never uses eye drops.
she actually looks better in a frozen close-up and worse from a distance. how the f does that work? i don’t get it.
Has there been any studies on the long term effects of botox? Using so much of a toxin can not be good for one’s health
Kaiser… She have movement on her forehead – no botox! I have botox myself and trust me – if I need to express some fear in order to save you from a fire – you’ll burn to death! 🙂
And from what window she got the curtain off to make this “dress”?!
Well, I agree, Kaiser. She looks totally waxen. Those eyebrows! Eesh!
I like her and I love that she makes Keith Urban happy. More power to them and their darling little girl. And, she looks great!
And yes, Aaron for HGF, pretty please!!!
Hey, look at her legs!! Have we ever seen them look less than elegantly slim and coltish? Methinks she is pregnant!
As for her nose – her sister has the exact same nose, and she has stated many times that her nose is natural.
Ok, this vampire needs a flippin’ tan! Some tanning lotion. SOMETHING!!
correct-that was hilarious!
i agree with Crash2Go2. it wouldn’t surprise me if she is pregnant. she seems slightly heavier all over, very loose fitting dress, low heels on a woman who LOVES shoes…could certainly be the case.
She stood next to her wax likeness once at Madame Tussauds and I was transfixed. Which was the original? Which was the copy? 🙂 Pity because she was a beautiful girl with her natural curly red hair and freckles and when she still sounded like an Aussie … but no Aussies who want to work in Hollyweird sound like Aussies; of course they have to sound British. 😉
A big improvement with the forehead and the lips. Nose is debatable. It looks similar in the front, however looks a little smaller in profile pics. I actually think she looks much better toned down now than pre-surgery. The worst is when she had the frozen face and duck lips.
I think she is overrated as an actress. Naomi Watts is the talented Aussie actress in my book.
Those lips are totally fake. Try to search a old photo of Nicole and you’ll see the difference. I actually did and it’s something shocking.. that’s not her real face.
And above all those duck-lips piss me as hell.
Drive by linking to picture of Nicole in ‘Dead Calm’…

Nicole Kidman is a talented artist, a great actress and she’s given the world a lot of entertainment and sensibility. Her forehead is definitely moving! there are lines there. Leave her alone!! We LOVE NICOLE!!!
@Isa – Haha! That’s exactly what I thought when I saw the 7th photo. BLUE STEEL!
Nicole Kidman had a lot of plastic surgery

She has wrinkles all over her forehead … how can she have had Botox?!
ugh ..she is ugly as hell !
whew …
like overpoached lobster ..
Um, @ 11,38 and 49; just because her forehead is moving (slightly) does not mean she has no botox. Botox does not totally paralyse muscles unless it is done to an extreme – it only weakens and atrophies muscles. Even when her eyebrows are raised she still has hardly any lines there. That there is a botox forehead.
And the lips have been stuffed with filler for sure. Twenty years ago she had very narrow, thin lips, but they suited her. The overstuffed lips and the too-dark eyebrows (black eyebrow pencil with skin that fair looks stupid) are what is really throwing her face off imo.
when normal people get botoxed, it’s relatively unoticeable… It’s only when desperation kicks in and people get too much done that it’s very obvious… my friend has botox and it’s hardly noticeable…
None of these pics show her hands on her belly unless you think her belly is located on her upper thighs. I think she looks better here than she has lately, except for her hair. I like her so I wish she’d stop messing with her face. Some celebs, I can’t even look at them anymore they’ve freaked themselves out too much.
Unbelievably beautiful?
I don’t think so. Artificially, definitely and even then, I doubt that she can be classified as physically beautiful. I shudder to imagine what she would look like without makeup.
That is her original nose. Nicole is a beautiful woman and I think she looks just fine.
@fizXgirl314: Umm…Botox paralyzes your muscles. Period. Either you can move them or you can’t. Your friend may go long periods of time letting it wear off, which is what I suspect we are seeing with Nicole. I had a reasonable amount done (two sites) on my forehead once, and believe me, I could not frown to save my life for four months!
In those bottom photos, I think she is resembling Daryl Hannah. Is she prepping for Splash 2; The Spawning?
Kaiser, you missed that her breast implants are gone!! Check out the blue dress, her breasts definitely look a lot smaller than they used to be. Naturally they are practically flat (as they were in “Eyes Wide Shut”).
Re Botox: Maybe she had fillers such as Restylane instead of Botox, which freezes the muscles. Fillers fill in the parts of your face that are sagging due to aging, so you look a lot younger. They are gaining in popularity because they offer a more natural look than Botox.
I don’t know what the hell she’s done to her face – I agree, probably hella fillers – but she does not look the same as she used to at all. She looks “pretty” in a china doll sort of way, but it’s completely unnatural.
ITA about her red eyes – Visine is pretty cheap and effective…
My favorite Nicole period was The Interpreter – she hadn’t gone whole-hog on the cosmetic procedures, whatever they might be, and I think that was the pinnacle for her, looks-wise.
That one where she’s glare-staring into the camera, i bet she’s thinking “back the f off you azzhole camera jockey…”
I have always admired Nicole as an actress. It’s her personal life that has perplexed me. She went from gay Tom Cruise to gay Keith Urban. I just don’t want to believe that the only station she can hold personally, is as a professional beard. Disappointing.
She’s looking better then she did during her harshest (to used White Oprah’s favorite word) Botox period.
She is one of the most beautiful woman around. Seems like there would be a loss of muscle tone after not using them for years cuz of Botox.
Any actress who has respect for the craft wouldn’t freeze their most dramatically important physical area. Simple as that. She’s decided her vanity is worth more than her integrity, and that says everything about her.
Thanks Elenor for the plastic surgery link. NK indeed has had a lot of work done..she has had so much done over the last 7 years or so, that you for get what she originally looked like! I saw Nic in Practical Magic and she WAS stunningly beautiful..now her face is tight & waxy.
I think she looks better than she has, but could look better (i.e., more natural).
Ha ha, grief porn. Gotta admit, it makes good movies. I love In the Bedroom.
Hey, can we have some vintage Aidan Quinn for this coming HGF? Can we, can we??
for some reason she really reminds me of Kylie Minogue in those last 2 pics.
I like her. She probably does other stuff for her face than botox. There’s lots of alternatives but they take effort that botox doesn’t, so they’re not nearly as common.
Attractive in the way that a boiled egg is attractive – only if you´re starving.
Ela continua linda!
That Nicole Kidman is a superficial, pretentious shallow fuckin bitch.A plastic doll with no character.Fuck odd Nicole.You’re a friggin BORE.
Nicole Kidman is a complete and utter bore, a pretentious plastic doll with nothing to say.
