      Well, that’s not what she said. She was warned that marrying a movie star would ruin her career.
      And that she didn’t care because she was in love.

      > The Moulin Rouge actress said people had warned her that marrying the Hollywood actor would mean living in his shadow, but she did not care because she was in love.

      The headline is misleading. Kind of click-baity imo

    3. It seems like there’s a bit of editorialising here since she said.

      We just fell madly in love and it was that simple. I remember people saying to me, ‘OK, well this is really going to affect your career’,” she said.
      “[I was] like, ‘I don’t care. I’m in love. I want to be married’.”
      Her friends later said “see, we told you” after she started to be known simply as Cruise’s wife, she added.
      “[I was] like, so what? I wasn’t meant to marry the man I love? Of course I’ll throw my career away, I don’t care,” the 59-year-old said.
      Kidman has previously described how Cruise swept her off her feet, causing her to “fall madly, passionately in love”.

    4. Practical Magic (1998), Eyes Wide Shut (1999), Moulin Rouge! (2001, Oscar nom) The Others (2001), The Hours (2002, Oscar win): Dogville (2003), Cold Mountain (2003).

      Here’s the slate of movies a couple years before and after the divorce. She divorced Cruise in 2001 according to Google.

      I was willing to think maybe she meant it was ruined but has since recovered but she won an Oscar like immediately after.

      They got divorced 25 years ago. She’s had over 60 roles since. He’s a wackadoo and it’s good she got out but idk how this makes sense

    6. She was married to him til 2001. Since then, she has won academy award, nominated for 4 more, won golden globe, and numerous other accolades and made millions. Doesn’t sound like he ruined anything in her career

    7. Really ? She seems to be doing pretty well. Love her in lioness. She is a decent actress imo

      No. Being a woman in Hollywood and turning 30 is what ruined you career.

      How are people upvoting this shit ass post lol she didn’t say this

      Look, I’m absolutely certain being married to him was a nightmare, but that’s not a fair claim whatsoever.

      She was married to Cruise in 1990, divorced in 2001. During that time she was in major hits like Days of thunder, Practical Magic, Batman Forever and moulin Rouge. The last she got an Oscar nod for. She won her Oscar in 2002 for The Hours. In 2004 she was the highest paid actress in Hollywood. Since then she’s had a pretty impressive career garnering more Oscar nods, Emmy and Golden Globe wins and cemented her status as a Hollywood leading lady.

      Again, her marriage to Tom may have been hell on earth, I don’t know. But to say it hindered her career is just factually not true.

    11. I don’t think she has to worry about paying the bills this month. She’ll be fine.

    12. This is an awful headline, but it twists her words into saying something completely different.

      She never said that marrying Tom ruined her career, she was warned that it might affect her career. And there’s no proof that it harmed her career given films like Batman Forever, To Die For, Portrait Of A Lady and Practical Magic.

    13. Nicole Kidman’s estimated net worth is ~$250 million – even if that’s overstated I would sure love for Tom to come ruin my career while he’s at it

    14. How much more successful could she be? She’s an A lister who can command the highest rates as an actor

    15. Boo-Radleys-Scissors on

      Hard to take this claim seriously. Sure, she had to hustle to rebuild, but that seems like a common thing in Hollywood? Actors will lose momentum for whatever reason, step away from the spotlight and then suddenly they are everywhere again. I don’t understand how that is Cruise’s fault even though I think he’s terrible on the whole.
