Nicole: Where's the Kid, Man?
It may be Tuesday, but all we can think about is Sunday.
As new mom Nicole Kidman was spotted heading to yoga Monday, it got us all wondering why we have yet to see her and hubby Keith Urban's daughter, Sunday Rose.
After all, it's been two—count 'em, two—whole weeks now since they welcomed their bundle of joy, and there hasn't been any sign of her whatsoever.
Urban Blogs About Baby "Bliss"
Nashville's recent Urban development is making at least two residents very happy.
New proud papa Keith Urban has posted a message on his site, saying he and wife Nicole Kidman are experiencing "pure bliss" in the wake of the birth of their firstborn last week.
"It's been 10 days since the birth of our beautiful new daughter, Sunday Rose, and like any of you who are parents yourselves, we're experiencing the pure bliss of welcoming her into our lives," Urban wrote.
Cruise Clan Gives Gift to Kidman's Kid
While it may not necessarily signal future play dates between Suri and Sunday, it's a nice gesture nonetheless.
To congratulate Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban on the birth of daughter Sunday Rose Kidman Urban, Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes sent a humongo baby basket chock-full of items to the Top Gunner's ex-wife in Nashville, per People.
The gift included chenille giraffe baby blankets as well as newborn necessities from the high-end Hermès baby collection.
No word, however, if Suri's one red shoe was part of the present.
What's in a Name? The Scoop on Nicole & Keith's Sunday Rose
The Great Baby Name Mystery of 2008 is history.
According to Nicole Kidman's father, there's a perfectly logical reason the Oscar winner and husband Keith Urban chose the name Sunday Rose for their baby girl, born on Monday.
"There was a lady named Sunday Reed who was a prominent patron of the arts in Victoria," Antony Kidman tells Australia's Daily Telegraph.
Update
It's a Girl for Nicole & Keith! Their Sunday Rose Blooms on Monday
Nicole Kidman beat Angelina Jolie to the finish line.
The Aussie Oscar winner and her Grammy-winning husband, Keith Urban, welcomed their first child, a baby girl, this morning in Nashville.
The Monday-born Sunday Rose Kidman Urban checked in at 6 pounds, 7½ ounces, according to a statement from their publicist.
"Keith was by Nicole's side, and mother and baby are very well," the rep added.
Nicole Kidman's Baby Talk
Nicole Kidman can't believe she's pregnant.
"When I first saw the baby on the ultrasound, I started crying," she says in the new issue of Vogue. "I didn't think I'd get to experience that in my lifetime...To feel life growing with you is something very, very special, and I'm going to embrace that completely. I don't believe in flittering around the edges of things. You're either going to walk through life and experience it fully or you're going to be a voyeur. And I'm not a voyeur."
Nicole Kidman: Not Nude on Vogue Cover!
Rumors that a pregnant Nicole Kidman would appear nude à la Demi Moore on an upcoming cover of Vogue have been greatly exaggerated.
Kidman is on the July issue, but she is fully clothed in a photo by Annie Leibovitz (yes, the same photographer behind Miley Cyrus' controversial body-baring pic in Vanity Fair).
In fact, Kidman's rep tells me, she wasn’t even showing when the cover was shot.
Instead, I’m hearing Ms. Kidman will be seen on the cover of the fashion bible wearing a custom-made dress by Oscar-winning costume designer Catherine Martin.
Nicole's Stork Watch: Due in Six Weeks?
Judging by girth alone, we’d say Nicole Kidman wasn’t due to deliver for at least another couple of years.
But a blogger at the L.A. Times says Aussie sources have put the actress’ due date at six weeks from now.
And what of her itty-bitty bump? Nic has reportedly “kept the extra weight down” thanks to spinning classes.
Only in Hollywood.
Chanel Choosing Audrey Tautou Makes Scents
Well, she is French.
Amélie cutie Audrey Tautou has been chosen as the new face of Chanel's No. 5 fragrance—replacing Nicole Kidman in the process.
The Da Vinci Code star will serve as the Parisian fashion house's pitchperson beginning in 2009, with a commercial helmed by her Amélie director, Jean-Pierre Jeunet.
Of course, mom-to-be Nicole will soon have her hands full with a whole new set of scents—Eau de Baby, No. 1 and No. 2.
Nicole Dusts Off Springfield Biopic
Her baby bump may still be invisible to the naked eye, but Nicole Kidman has already lined up—and tuned up—for her first postbaby role.
The Aussie Oscar winner is set to star as iconic '60s British pop singer Dusty Springfield, whose less than stable private life was marred by mental illness, substance abuse and dalliances with the fairer sex before her death in 1999 from breast cancer.
According to Variety, Kidman will also produce the as yet untitled film for Fox 2000, and will reunite with her Hours writer Michael Cunningham for the project.
Unfortunately, as Hollywood isn't one for entirely new ideas, a second Springfield project is in the works at Universal, that one starring Kristin Chenoweth as the seminal songbird.
Can Regular People Get into the Ivy?
Do regular people stand a chance at getting into Hollywood hot spots like the Ivy?
—Karin, Atlanta
I love questions like these, that imagine Los Angeles as one big Studio 54 with a mile-wide velvet rope stretching all the way around Robertson Boulevard.
The big secret to getting into restaurants like the Ivy and Nobu and Hamasaku and Mozza and Cut? Called the telephone.
Get on the blower, child. I did, just now, and the Ivy told me they could seat me today at noon. No fuss, no who-is-this. They even said I could bring a friend. It was all very chummy.
It's a big myth that hot Hollywood restaurants only have room for Tom and Katie and Gisele and...That Other Tom. Mozza, the precious Hollywood pizzeria which has seated everybody from Mischa Barton to Lauren Ambrose, is always booked solid for a month out. Always. But regular people eat at the bar all the time. They walk in, put their names in a list, and within 20 minutes they're snarfing down squash flowers and trufflelicious Italian whatnots.
