Nicole Kidman: " The First Year Of Marriage Is The Hardest"

Nicole on how her nearsightedness helped her deal with the paparazzi:
“I never wore glasses except when I had to read a teleprompter at an awards show or drive, so I didn’t notice much. I could exist in my head. It was kind of my escape from the world and my protection.”

Nicole on how LASIK surgery changed all that:
“I was walking around legally blind. Now I have 20-20 vision. I can’t believe I spent so many years blurry, but I think that coincides with how I was feeling. Now I notice if people are watching me, but I also smile right back if someone waves, which helps.”

Nicole on her first year of marriage:
“They say the first year of marriage is the hardest. Please, God — he’s the most important person in my life, and he says I am for him, and that’s where we’re at. We won’t go more than 12 days apart, ever. The time he went away to rehab was the longest time.”

Nicole on being 40 years old:
“Yipee! I can’t believe I made it. It feels like a long haul to get here. I’m so fine with it. People want you to have some sort of breakdown, but I’m relieved to be 40 years old, and I’ve lived a life.”

Nicole on her kids, Isabella and Conner:
“Yes, they’re being raised as Scientologists. I don’t want to go there.”

Kylie Minogue Loves Riding A Mechanical Bull

Kylie Minogue is set to send her fans wild by performing on a bucking bronco.

Wearing a conical basque and fishnet tights, Minogue rides the leather bronco to perform a new song, Sensitized, on an ITV special.

The scantily-clad Crazy Horse Girls have been flown in from Paris to dance around the pint-sized star on a specially-built cabaret set.

This isn’t the first time the sexy singer has gone for a ride.

Kylie rode a velvet bronco machine for lingerie brand Agent Provocateur’s 2001 advert wearing only a bra and knickers.

The advert was so racy it was banned from television, playing in cinemas for 18-certificate features only.

Britney Spears Buys New Mercedes SL-65 To Celebrated Blackout Album

Britney Spears put her legal and custody woes behind her to go car shopping on Wednesday (07Nov07).
The pop superstar celebrated the success of her comeback album Blackout, which debuted at number two on the U.S. charts on Wednesday, by paying out more than $200,000 for a luxury Mercedes-Benz.
Spears spent two hours at a Mercedes dealership in Van Nuys, California, test driving a silver SUV and a white Mercedes SL 65.
She eventually bought the car, which she drove off the lot, followed by her assistant, who left in the Mercedes Spears has been driving for the past year.
A bystander tells WENN, “Britney was very happy with her purchase but made it clear that she might return for the SUV she test drove.
“That would certainly be a great family car for her – and prove she means business about becoming a great mum.” Spears’ old Mercedes has plenty of bad memories for Spears – she was driving it when she was accused of a hit and run in August (07), and she could face another hit and run charge for driving the motor over a police officer’s foot.
The car also cost her dear in her custody battle for kids Sean Preston and Jayden James – when they were spotted in the backseat without the legally required restraints.
