Through the awards ceremony on April 27, 2024, Nicole Kidman finally realized her worth when multiple people expressed their gratitude and appreciation for this actress. Those include her co-star, Meryl Streep, and her husband, Keith Urban, giving a speech about their impressions of Kidman and how much of an impact she made on the industry as well as their lives. Streep stated how Kidman was an exception actress who did what no one else can do. “People call it bravery when an actress bares all and leaps off into the unknown and she dives deep into the darker parts of what it is to be a human being,” Streep said. “But I don’t think it’s bravery. I think it’s love. I think she just loves it.” This proved how much passion Kidman puts into each of her roles to create an everlasting memory. Her husband added on to profess his feelings by recalling the memories of the start of their marriage. They faced troubles and problems that resulted in rehab. Through all the problems, Kidman still fought through the negative emotions from Urban and herself. In the end, their marriage is going on strongly for 18 years and more. The praises she received that night brought her to tears, and she made sure to thank every one of her supporters by promising to continue her hard work. Nicole Kidman made, and will continue to make historic movies and shows that will shock the world.
