Born in Hawaii and raised in Australia, Nicole Kidman blossomed from a gawky young-ster into an elegant beauty whose heart was set on becoming an actress. Relying on the grit and dedication passed on to her by her activist parents, Nicole quickly became an award-winning ingenue.
Her American debut in the acclaimed thriller Dead Calm grabbed the attention of movie audiences--and of Tom Cruise, who asked that Nicole audition for his car-racing epic,Days of Thunder. Tom, not yet divorced from actress Mimi Rogers, was immediately taken with the gorgeous newcomer. Suddenly, Tom and Nicole were everywhere--and the paparazzi were never far behind.
By the early 1990s, Tom and Nicole had married, and their private relationship was more intense than anything they portrayed on the screen. It also brought its share of problems. Although Nicole's performances garnered exceptional reviews, many continued to see her simply as Mrs. Tom Cruise. Then came the movie--Stanley Kubrick's controversial Eyes Wide Shut--that would put her and Tom back in the tabloids.
