Nicole Kidman’s role in the gripping Babygirl has earned critical praise, but a red carpet moment called “rude” quickly overshadowed the film’s release.
Instead of focusing attention on her portrayal of a CEO entangled in a forbidden office romance, the Oscar-winning actress viral exchange with a Pop Crave reporter took center stage.
During the question-and-answer session, Kidman asked the journalist to repeat the name of her outlet, then shrugged, looked off camera, and let out a laugh that suggested the name still didn’t ring a bell.
Some fans found her reaction refreshing and carefree, praising her ‘offline queen’ energy, while others were less impressed, calling her dismissive.
One follower admitted, “I would have been so embarrassed if I was popcrave and Nicole Kidman was laughing at me like that,” while another bluntly stated, “She’s rude.”
Another chimed in: “A little bitchy of Nicole towards me but oh well,” while someone else bluntly added: “I’m sorry but this is fucking horrible behaviour.”

Despite the backlash, not everyone was clutching their pearls. Some fans found the moment delightfully on-brand for the star.
After all, who could better embody too-cool-for-social-media than Nicole Kidman herself?
While one amused fan joked: ‘HAHAHA OMG she’s a legend,’ while another said: ‘She’s so Queenie!’
Meanwhile, Nicole recently revealed details about the intense sex scenes in Babygirl.
The 57-year-old actress explained to Woman’s Day how she and her 28-year-old co-star, Harris Dickinson, prepared for their “delicate, intimate and very profound” moments.
Despite working with an intimacy coordinator, Kidman noted, “There was still a flow, which allowed room to move and change and work,” adding, “I wasn’t limited and I love working that way.”

“So Big Little Lies is actually very different, but this definitely leaves me exposed and vulnerable and scared and all those things when it’s given to the world,” Kidman said.
In October, the actress revealed to the sun who had to take a break during filming and confessed: “There was a tremendous amount of sharing and trust and then frustration. It’s like, ‘Don’t touch me.’
She added: “There were times when we were filming and I thought, “I don’t want to have an orgasm anymore. Don’t come near me. I hate doing this. I don’t care if they never touch me again in my life! “I’m over it.”
A24’s erotic thriller also stars Antonio Banderas, Esther Rose McGregor, Sophie Wilde and Izabel Mar.
