Being a single mother makes it difficult to find a mate even when you're Nicole Kidman.
"I'm hoping to meet someone and be happy with them. But that's not as easy as it sounds. I'm a 37-year-old woman with two children. Men aren't beating a path to my door," she said in an interview published Wednesday in the latest issue of Now magazine.
"I don't want to sound like a woman from a lonely hearts club and I don't want to advertise. The children are my priority. I take them around with me movies or baseball games or local shows and that's not so appealing for any new man on the scene, is it?" she said.
The Oscar-winning star of "The Hours" has been single since breaking up with rock star Lenny Kravitz (news) earlier this year.
She denied rumors that she might get back together with ex-husband Tom Cruise (news), with whom she split in 2001. The pair share custody of their children, 11-year-old Isabella and 9-year-old Connor.
"That whole part of my life is over and done with. We'll always be in contact because of our children," she said. "But I'm single and there's no one out there for me at the moment."
Kidman, who recently starred in a remake of "The Stepford Wives," also wanted to dash speculation that she's suffering from an eating disorder. She has looked painfully thin in recent photographs, but said her hairstyle was to blame.
"I've been wearing it up a lot lately and that seems to make my face look smaller and make my body look even thinner," she explained. "When I wear it down ... then my boy-like figure looks a little fuller. That's the only explanation I can come up with."
If that ugly skank JFK can be a gigolo, then I can be a gigolo. Screw it, I'm giving her a call.
Now, Linda Carter....THAT'S a classic beauty.
>>I don't want to sound like a woman from a lonely hearts club and I don't want to advertise. The children are my priority. I take them around with me movies or baseball games or local shows and that's not so appealing for any new man on the scene, is it
Uhh, it's not appealing to know that you have the kids and your husband doesn't. Why would a man sign up with you only to have his kids, money, and property taken away? Especially when you've already done it once?
DUH!
Worth repeating...
"the reason why so many women are single is because none of the guys who might be interested in them "meet their standards", and all of the guys who THEY might be interested in, have better choices than them."
I think she is beautiful - on the outside. But she has dated married men, and is in a new movie that lowers the bar for pedophilia. She also strikes me as very high maintenance.
I'm in the military doing a remote tour overseas. My wife is taking care of the family and fixing up the house so we can sell it when I return. Somehow, I have a hard time picturing Kidman in Home Depot looking at toilets, or picking out tile she plans to install.
Placed side by side, most men would agree Kidman is better looking than my wife. Placed side by side, most men would prefer to be married to my wife than Kidman. Certainly I would - altho I'll freely admit I'm not the sort of man Kidman is looking for. I doubt she finds bifocals attractive...
Lots of guys would prefer a woman with more meat on the bone (so to speak). Judging from the photos posted here, she doesn't have very well defined hips - kind of a tubular body. Her legs are too skinny for my taste in women, and her face is great in some shots but vampirish in others. And she overdoes the pale skin thing - understand redheads don't tan much, but she looks like she wakes up at sundown!
Mind you, I find Kidman physically attractive - it's her personality and behavior I don't care for. She might be appropriate for a roll in the hay, but she ain't marriage material.
Nicole baby, I'll be good to ya, darlin and treat they younguns as if they was my very own.
When a woman goes into "drama queen" mode, it's amazing how ugly she can get, and how fast. No woman is attractive when she's screaming insults in your face
Maybe they had trouble getting past the barbed-wire fences, long hike, 8 guard dogs and the 3 burly gaurds standing outside your door.
Btw Nicole is drop dead gorgeous, even for a too skinny woman. I'd leave Mrs. Diplomat for you. Well, no I wouldn't, but she is who I picked when my wife told me she would leave me for Tim McGraw.
She would ruin your life in no time. The chick is a whacked out liberal. She's a 4F bimbo in my book.
I'm not busy this weekend...
My Valhalla or yours, pupkin?
Actually,
I heard that if she was a US Citizen(I think she still is not), that she would vote for the big W.
If that were the case, I would at least try to see if it could actually work out(At least you would have a good story).
A word of advice to her...stay the hell away from Hollywood when you can. Tha same goes for your kids. And, if you figure you would like to try on a regular Joe Schmoe like me, give it a shot...ha!
Baybe, you'll bring down the bacon and the cat brings home the salami (the hard kind), and we're an item, deal?
Just cause a book got a pretty cover, don't mean its a good read!
LOL!
Im not even sure I completely comprehend that sentence.
Bwhahhahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahha.. gasping for air... Bhahahahahhahhahhahhahahahahhahahahahhahahah
Linda Carter????!!!!!Can't think of anyone more current?
Drinking nitro glycerin is safer than dealing with one.
