Nicole Kidman’s appearance at the 2025 Academy Awards left fans both impressed and puzzled.
The 55-year-old actress looked stunning in a black asymmetrical Armani Privé dress adorned with rhinestones and large false roses on the shoulder and waist.
The dress, paired with elegant shoes and a high slit, accentuated her long legs, earning praise from the public. However, her behavior raised eyebrows among fans. Nicole displayed an odd smile, gestured excessively, and seemed unsteady on her feet.
Her affectionate and frequent kisses with husband Keith Urban added to the confusion, with both Urban and their entourage appearing slightly uncomfortable by the public displays of affection.
This was a stark contrast to Nicole’s usual composed public persona, leading fans to speculate whether she had overindulged in champagne or perhaps taken something else.
Some criticized her actions, especially given her role as a mother to two young daughters, Sandy Rose and Faith Margaret, whom she shares with Urban. Fans expressed concern that her behavior set a poor example for her children, who are now teenagers.
Nicole and Keith have been married since 2006, and despite the controversy surrounding her Oscar appearance, fans continue to admire her talent and style.
