Nicole Kidman yawns through husband Keith Urban's gig

If rocker Keith Urban ever wondered what wife Nicole Kidman thinks of his music, these pictures should tell him all he may not wish to know.
Photographed fidgeting in the audience at a concert in Australia, the actress seemed distinctly unimpressed by her husband giving his all for her entertainment onstage.
While the Grammy-award winner regaled the crowd with a string of hits, The Golden Compass star could be seen yawning through what fans said was a "storming" set.
Urban strikes a chord
Alternately inspecting her fingernails and playing with her bangles, Kidman sat behind a large fan which looked to be the only thing keeping her awake as she fought to keep her eyelids from drooping.
When she did glance stage wards, the 40-year-old was photographed wearing a look that can only be described as one of grim determination to make it through the evening.
The Hollywood actress married Urban, a country music star, in a low key candlelit ceremony in Sydney in 2006.
Urban was said to have later serenaded his new wife with a love song, Making Memories of Us.
One assumes there was no yawning at the back then.
Might have been barely surviving the jet lag. I’ve done a trip to Sydney, and it’s pretty brutal.
The woman is pregnant. She’s probably tired.
been there done that...
And pregnant at 40! Not that easy.
I was thinking that too—I’ve never been so tired as when I was pregnant my 4 times. . .I used to lie down on the BART train seats after work and completely fall asleep, an appalling idea to me now (yucky public transit seats).
She’s also older and pregnant, and with jet lag and possibly, yes, a boring concert. . .a triple whammy.
I saw the WHO last year, thought of how weird/sad it must be for them to get the biggest cheers for songs they wrote 30+ years ago, and not their new stuff. Same with Ozzy, Guns-n-roses, etc, etc, etc......
Now she knows what others felt like watching her recent pro-UN ‘thriller’....
Yeah, I was so tired with my 4th, that I fell asleep through major fights between the first three.... it just didn’t interest me as much as an irresistible nap. The kids actually calmed down when I dozed off, without hearing me yell, “Knock it off!” over and over again... Or so I’ve been told. LOL
Poor thing She should’ve just stayed home. I know it’s nice that she’s ‘there for him’ but if I were him, I’d insist she just get her rest.
Or her remake of Stepford Wives.
Geez, she yawned and was tired...so what? God, she’s not a teeny-bopper.
Keith should write a song title “She Yawned” as a joke. Give the lady a break. Sometimes the paprazzi is just too much.
This is the second absolutely hateful piece I’ve seen on Kidman lately. These celebrity reporters and photographers can be vicious earning a buck.

Apparently Miss Britney has not been so available lately. The leeches have to go somewhere.

Funny story, but I’d be willing to cut her a break, too. I couldn’t name a single Keith Urban song if my life depended on it.
