Nicole Kidman is once again under scrutiny after her appearance at the Gotham Awards on Monday, sparking rumors about her appearance and health. The 57-year-old actress, who attended the New York City event after being nominated for Outstanding Lead Performance for her role in Babygirl, was seen on the red carpet sporting a striking black and floral gown. While her youthful look, with a noticeably taut face and thin features, caught the eye, it was her appearance, rather than her performance, that fueled the most buzz on social media.
Critics took to X (formerly Twitter), questioning whether Kidman had undergone extensive cosmetic procedures, with some speculating she may even be using Ozempic, the weight-loss medication. One user criticized, “Nicole Kidman and the rest of Hollywood need to stop the plastic surgery,” while another remarked, “She’s had too much plastic surgery…” Another user, comparing Kidman’s appearance to pop icon Madonna, quipped, “Are Madonna and Nicole Kidman in a personal competition to make the biggest plastic surgery f**k up?”
Some observers went further, speculating that Kidman’s appearance might be the result of Ozempic use, with one critic remarking, “Her face is scarier than usual.” This isn’t the first time Kidman’s looks have been a topic of discussion. Earlier this year, Dr. Ramtin Kassir, a New York-based plastic surgeon, who has not treated Kidman, suggested that her facial changes could be the result of surgery, fillers, and injectables. “When you get a lot of injectables and fillers, it interferes with the lymphatic drainage, so you get this puffy balloon face,” he explained.
While her appearance grabbed attention, others were concerned about her health and physical condition. A source earlier this year noted that Kidman appeared “incredibly skinny,” with whispers circulating about her bony frame. Friends and colleagues have also expressed concern about her well-being, with one insider revealing, “Everyone wants to know what’s wrong with her. Even those close to her are concerned.” The source attributed Kidman’s current struggles to her relentless work schedule and the toll it has taken, particularly after the loss of her mother, Janelle, a few months ago. “It’s as if she fears she’ll lose the career she worked so hard for,” the insider said, adding, “She’s shown no signs of slowing down.”
Despite her personal challenges, Kidman’s work schedule remains packed, with numerous projects in the pipeline. This has prompted further concerns about her mental and physical health, with sources close to the actress fearing that she might be pushing herself too hard. According to one insider, “The big worry on everyone’s mind is, how much can she take?”
Kidman’s husband, country music star Keith Urban, has been a source of support following the death of her mother. Sources close to the couple revealed that Urban, whose Las Vegas residency recently ended, has even considered stepping back from touring to focus on supporting his wife during this challenging time. “He owes everything, including his life to Nicole, so quitting big live shows is an easy choice,” an insider shared.
As Kidman continues to navigate both personal and professional pressures, her mental health remains a key concern for those close to her. One source revealed, “All Nicole can talk about is how she feels cast adrift without the woman she considered her guardian angel and guiding light.” With her family and team rallying behind her, they are hopeful that Kidman’s mental health will remain strong despite the intense pressures she faces.
