Nicole Kidman Pays Visit to the Big Apple

There’s just something about New York City - the energy, the nightlife, the theaters - that attracts all kinds of celebrities. And Nicole Kidman was in town yesterday for an exclusive screening of “Margot at the Wedding.”

The Aussie actress was spotted at the Grand Hotel in Tribeca, along with Jennifer Jason Leigh and hubby Noah Baumbach. And from the looks of it, “Margot” is going to be an understated hit.

Though she’s married to Keith Urban now, Nic was once in Katie Holmes’ shoes, as the wife of megastar Tom Cruise. In a recent interview, she got real about her last marriage.

The “The Others” actress told press, “Tom and I, we moved and moved and moved. Your sense of where do I come from becomes less and less relevant. A lot of my life, particularly when I was working so much, it was about trying to fill in the gaps. Now there’s much more reason to exist in the world without my identity needing to be through work.”

And funny enough, she’s on her way to Germany, where her ex just wrapped filming “Valkyrie.” “I’m going to Germany to do a film called The Reader for six weeks. Naomi Watts, my girlfriend, is going to be shooting in Berlin. She just had a little baby. She’s doing a film with Clive Owen there. I don’t know Germany at all. I’ve been to the Berlin film festival, and that’s it.”
