With the paparazzi camped outside of Nicole Kidman's Australian home, you would have thought that Ms. Kidman would have been annoyed. She may have been, but she still decided to play nice, and had a case of beer and water delivered to the photogs outside her home. They are camped out for Nicole Kidman's upcoming wedding this weekend to country singer Keith Urban.
After staking out Kidman's harbourside Sydney house for most of the day, some 20 photographers heard her garage door start to rise and quickly armed themselves with motor-drive cameras.But instead of a shot of the bride and groom before the wedding day, the paparazzi were met by two women carrying a case of beer and water bottles.
Written on the case of 24 bottles of "Victoria Bitter" beer was a note: "Enjoy!, Nicole and Keith."
And it seemed the gesture worked, at least temporarily, with the paparazzi thanking their host and enjoying the beer -- a universal greeting of friendship in Australia.
She may have just wanted the press a little tipsy so they weren't quite as alert. Who knows. As for the pregnancy rumors, Nicole Kidman's spokesperson categorically denies that the star is pregnant.
"She's not pregnant," spokeswoman Catherine Olim tells us. "This is a rumor that comes around every month. It has for past year or two. Believe me on this one: She is religious, and that would never do."

sEs says:
do you think that the preggers comment is a blow at katie holmes who is also catholic?
mg says:
totally a subtle blow to TC and Katie! Awesome...I love it. I hope that doesn't mean that they haven't done it yet, though....
Jersey Girl says:
sEs: i think is more on the line of- Nicole is religious but she's not hoping for a miracle anytime soon, being that she's supposed to be sterile.
Vikingwench says:
SHE'S supposed to be sterile? She had a (confirmed) miscarriage in 2001 right after the split with Cruise. There was a little speculation at the time that the child was not his, and that's what caused the breakup.
cyndi says:
not only that the miscarriage, but tc bad mouthed his first ex after there split because there were no children.
Joanne says:
Brilliant! I love how she used the "traditional Australian greeting" to her advantage - she can both look friendly AND get them drunk so that they're less predatory. (Even if the alcohol did make them more aggressive they wouldn't be able to work the camera properly. Haha.)
slowpokeTC says:
It's funny that TC went overboard to declare his love for Katie but Nicole is beating him to the altar. And where is Tom's biological child the oh so mysterious Suri?
cathie says:
Your right Vikingwench, she is sterile. So any baby info is a lie.
I wish them all the best!!
