Nicole Kidman: maybe not pregnant

No wonder these poor celebrities work their asses off at the gym and plastic surgeon's office. A little bloat and the Internets and celebrity glossies declare they're pregnant. Poor Nicole lost her imaginary baby bump in a miscarriage of gossip this week. She was photographed outside her gym with a perfectly flat tummy poking out of her top.

Nicole Kidman joined her new husband, country singer Keith Urban, on the opening night of his North American tour in Ontario, Canada. Kidman did not join her husband on stage, but he made a reference to her, dedicating his song "Making Memories of Us," to "my lovely bride." He also told concert-goers that he was "happy to join the married crowd".

Security at the concert was beefed up after a local radio station said they would pay $75,000 for a picture of the famous newlyweds kissing.

Nicole Kidman: the bump is back!

Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban drove their Bentley to Target near Nashville to pick up some sort of cleaning device. Keith went casual in a t-shirt and cargo pants while Nicole looked fresh and lovely in a white sundress and sandals. People thought that the pregnancy rumors could be put to rest when a far-away picture of Nicole in a bikini on her honeymoon came out. Her stomach looked toned and muscular, but if you squint hard enough you can still see a bump. Now she seems even more pregnant in this flowy dress. The wind could just be blowing her dress out, but it looks like she's pregnant to me.

The Sun quotes a "source" as saying that Nicole has a bump, but their source is probably someone looking at the pictures just like us:

Rumours that newlywed Nicole Kidman is expecting her first biological child gathered strength after she was spotted with a little bump.

A source said that Kidman, who was out walking with her new hubby country singer Keith Urban near their home in Nashville when her bump was spotted, said that the couple did look as if they had some happy news to share with the world.

"It does look like they might have some good news to announce. Nicole looked stunning and definitely had a bump," The Sun quoted the onlooker, as saying.

Reader Millie says Nicole and Keith go to the gym a lot, but that doesn't mean that Nicole isn't pregnant. We'll keep saying it as we wait for Nicole to really show. She's supposedly had two miscarriages, so if she's really pregnant she'll wait to announce it until she's much further along.

Nicole Kidman's wedding memorabilia on eBay

No one placed a bid on the package of memorabilia from the Nicole Kidman-Keith Urban wedding last weekend. The Australian seller wanted over $3,700 USD for the items, which look fancy but not too exciting:

A once only special offer of mementos from the Nicole Kidman-Keith Urban wedding on Sunday 25th June, 2006.

On offer are:
1. Engraved Tiffany travelling clock
2. Book of Ceremonies
3. Menu
4. Boxed slice of wedding cake

With no more than 100 of these presented to guests at the wedding, this is a very special and rare offering, sure to increase in value over the years.

The auction ended July 3rd with 0 bids, but that may just be due to the fact that it hasn't been publicized yet. Someone is surely stupid or crazed enough to pay almost 4k for that stuff.

The seller has a positive feedback rating of 14, and has only bought, not sold, items in the past. In the past 30 days they've bid on L'oreal lipgloss and bought a Thomas the Tank engine print, so they're likely a mom that could use the cash. I would guess it's someone who worked at the reception.

If you'd like a piece of the Kidman-Urban wedding you still have a chance. The wedding booklet is up for auction by another less-reputable seller at a more reasonable starting bid of $260 USD. The auction ends in about a week.

Here are the pictures of the stuff from eBay as well as some candids of Nicole and Keith celebrating the 4th of July. [via]

Nicole Kidman did invite Tom Cruise to her wedding

Australian gossip rags are reporting that Nicole Kidman did invite her ex, Tom Cruise, to her wedding with Keith Urban last weekend. He didn't attend, but sent his regards. His two adopted children with Kidman did attend:

The 39-year-old star apparently invited Tom and present squeeze Katie Holmes – who have a daughter Suri - to the wedding in her native Sydney, Australia.

Oz tabloids claim to have seen copies of the invite, which would have followed the correct wedding/ex-partner etiquette if Cruise and Holmes were unavailable to attend.

While Cruise and Kidman's adopted children from their marriage, Isabelle and Connor, were both at last Sunday's ceremony, the Mission: Impossible star was nowhere to be seen, but a source told the Sunday Mirror that the actor sent his best wishes instead.

"Tom wished Nicole all the best and was pleased all the troubles between them were over. He also said how much he hoped she finds joy," a friend told the paper.

Earlier reports that Tom sent Nicole a picture of Suri for her 39th birthday with the message "a very nappy birthday" were false, and were undoubtedly made up in England, where most of the fake gossip originates and nappy is a common colloquialism for diaper. Nicole was also said to have wished "mother and baby well" after the birth of Suri, but that turned out to be made up, too. It could be true that Tom sent his regards after the wedding, but we'll probably never know.

Nicole and Keith are back in Nashville after departing their honeymoon in Tahiti on Saturday. They left at night to avoid photographers, and boarded a jetboat to a chartered flight, which took them to the Island nation's capital, where they caught a private jet home. Their honeymoon was probably not as peaceful as they were hoping, considering that Eva Longoria and Tony Parker crashed their resort.

Nicole is no longer on pregnancy watch after she was photographed looking super-fit in a bikini. Both she and Keith are headed back to work:

The Oscar-winning actress, who is rarely seen in anything revealing, was photographed in a turquoise and white bikini showing off an amazingly toned abdomen, putting to rest any rumours she was pregnant.

The celebrity couple are set to get straight back to work - Urban kicks off the first show of his tour in Ontario, Canada on July 13 and Kidman is due to start filming her next movie, The Lady From Shanghai.

Here are lower resolution pictures of Nicole and Keith on their honeymoon, and some higher resolution candids of them back in Nashville. [via]

Nicole did not have a miscarriage right before the wedding

I bought The National Enquirer partially due to the headline "Nicole's Miscarriage Secret: The heartbreak behind her wedding." The headline makes it seem as if Nicole was pregnant, as everyone has been speculating, but lost the baby right before her wedding to Keith Urban - just like Brenda on "Six Feet Under." This wasn't the case at all.

All the Enquirer did was recycle the old story of Nicole's miscarriages during her marriage to half-pint Tom Cruise and present it as some big exclusive that caused her pain during her nuptuals. This is a cheap trick to sell papers, and it worked:

A heartbreaking miscarriage secret tormented Nicole Kidman even as she immersed herself in the joy of her wedding to Keith Urban, the Enquirer has learned exclusively.

The Oscar-winning actress is now terrified that she won't be able to bear a child for new husband Keith, say sources.

"Nicole must be haunted by the miscarriage she suffered after first husband Tom Cruise walked out on her," a source revealed.

"She also apparently suffered an ectopic pregnancy in the past and has dealt with a series of medical issues.

I think losing two pregnancies weighs heavily on Nicole's mind. And now that she's almost 40, her chances of carrying a child to term are less then they were when she was younger."

(From The National Enquirer print version)

How is that news? We already knew Nicole had a miscarriage, and someone speculating that it bothers her does not make the story an exclusive. It's also deceptive of the Enquirer to market it this way.

It may be a new revelation that Nicole had a second miscarriage, though. The "insider" says she had the ectopic pregnancy right before she married Tom in 1990.

That's sad for Nicole, but it's ancient history. Nicole is supposedly worried if she can carry a baby now, but who knows if that's true. She may or may not be pregnant, and we'll just have to wait it out and see.

The Enquirer did have one redeeming feature in the deceptive article - an inset featuring Nicole's men throughout the years. Did you know she dated rapper Q-tip? I didn't.

Here is a picture of the article as well as some high res pictures of Nicole and Keith in the lobby of their hotel the day after their wedding. They are carrying a present for Keith's father, as it was his birthday. The happy couple is now honeymooning in Tahiti. [via]

High Res photos from Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban's wedding

Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban were married in a candlelit Catholic ceremony in Sydney on Sunday:

The all-candlelight ceremony took place just after sundown Sunday night at Sydney, Australia's Cardinal Cerretti Memorial Chapel on St. Patrick's Estate at Manly.

Guests at the black-tie event included Russell Crowe, Hugh Jackman, Naomi Watts and Rupert Murdoch.

Kidman's wedding party consisted of her sister Antonia, who was her maid of honor, and daughter Isabella, 13, who was her bridesmaid. Antonia's daughter, Lucia, was a flower girl. On the groom's side were Urban's brother Shane, who served as best man, and longtime buddy Marlon Holden, who produced Urban's first solo album in 1991.

Kidman wore a dress by Nicolas Ghesquiere for Balenciaga. Her father, Antony, walked her down the aisle under the dramatic glow of a spotlight. She kept her veil on throughout the ceremony, only lifting it when it came time to say the (very traditional) vows.

Nicole cried all the way to the church in the car and then she cried all during the ceremony and had to wipe her eyes under the veil," a guest tells PEOPLE. "It was the most emotional and beautiful ceremony. Nicole looked ethereal with her veil floating, like a vision in white. ... Keith cried when he looked at her.

"It was so intense," the guest says. "When her veil was lifted, he moved right in and he grabbed her and kissed her. It was a long, passionate kiss. (Then) everything went from being quiet and elegant and intense to really loud, like we were suddenly at a soccer game. There was screaming and hollering and such excitement.

"But when Nicole and Keith looked at each other it was like they were the only two people in the room. They are so deeply in love. It was the most incredible wedding."

In lieu of gifts, guests were asked to donate to the Sydney Children's Hospital.

Both Jackman and Crowded House's Neil Finn performed at the reception, which had a "passion" theme and red color scheme – including red carnations hanging from huge chandeliers and red roses on the tables.

Either the rumors were untrue or Keith decided at the last minute not to perform at the reception, because it was said that he was planning to serenade Nicole.

It sounds lovely and quite romantic. Best wishes to Keith and Nicole.

Here are pictures from the wedding, including a high-res version of the official wedding photo and one high-res of Nicole in the car outside the wedding [via]. The other wedding photos are medium-sized. The other high-res photos are of Nicole on the day before the wedding outside her parents' house.

Nicole Kidman's sensible pre-nup; Renee Zellweger and Kenny Chesney again?

Nicole Kidman had Keith Urban sign a prenup in preparation for their wedding this weekend that gives him a relatively paltry portion of Kidman's fortune. Kidman is said to be worth $150 million dollars, but she'll only surrender $600k a year to her groom-to-be if they get divorced. If he drinks a lot or does drugs, he gets nothing:

Kidman, who's worth about $150 million, has had her hubby-to-be ink a lowball prenup that guarantees him a kiss-off of just over $600,000 a year for every year they are together, according to press reports in Australia and England. In addition, there's a clause that allows her to bail without giving Urban, an ex-cocaine addict, a cent if he uses illegal narcotics or boozes excessively.

The agreement, signed in Los Angeles earlier this month, also calls for joint custody of any kids the couple has together, although Urban would be prohibited from taking them out of whatever country Kidman is living in, the London Daily Mail said.

Kidman, 39, will wear a long white gown with Victorian-style high collar during the traditional Roman Catholic ceremony at an old Gothic chapel overlooking the sea in the Sydney suburb of Manly - a far cry from her Scientology-based nuptials with Tom Cruise in 1990, a union that ended in annulment five years ago.

The 200 guests who'll party under a huge white tent after the wedding include her adopted kids with Cruise, Isabella, 13, and Connor, 11; Meryl Streep, Julianne Moore, Russell Crowe, Naomi Watts, Hugh Jackman and Lachlan and Sarah Murdoch. Flying in separately are Renée Zellweger and Kenny Chesney, whose marriage only lasted seven months but whom we hear are quietly seeing each other again....

Meanwhile, Nicole had her bachelorette party at her sister Antonia's home, and it was tamer than tame. Instead of male strippers and boozing, the girls each brought a favorite recipe to discuss.

The most interesting part of this article is the mention of Zellweger and Chesney's on-again relationship. If this is true, I would like to see pictures. Zellweger manages to avoid the paparrazi, and she was rumored to be seeing Chesney briefly after their high profile divorce. She deserves someone who will pay more attention to her, though, and if the rumors about Chesney are true it's possible they're just friends.

Kidman has taken smart precautionary measures for her wedding to an ex-drug addict, although it might actually last and we hope things work out for them.

Although Kidman's "hen party" wasn't too exciting, Naomi Watts was in town to party with her prior to the wedding, and it looks like they had a little bit to drink. Here are pictures of Watts and Kidman out on the town last night in Sydney. [via] In the last picture Kidman is shown being driven from her Sydney home this morning.

Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban to be married this weekend

Nicole Kidman's children, Conner and Isabella, have arrived in Australia for their mom's wedding to Keith Urban. The wedding details are a well-guarded secret, but sources say that it will take place this Sunday, June 25th:

NICOLE KIDMAN's children ISABELLA and CONNOR have arrived in Australia for the actress' wedding to KEITH URBAN, without their father TOM CRUISE. Isabella, aged 13 and 11-year-old Connor arrived at Kidman's Sydney Harbour mansion with their grandmother JANELLE after flying in on a private jet from Tokyo, where they had been on a publicity tour with their dad.

Kidman and country star Urban will marry this weekend. They have kept details fiercely guarded, but the nuptials are expected to take place in on Sunday (25JUN06).

A marquee is currently being erected at a Catholic church in the Sydney suburb Manly, where the wedding is expected to take place.

Tom Cruise didn't travel to Australia with his children, but he supposedly sent Kidman a ~~blurry far-off~~ picture of a baby that is supposed to be Suri as a present for her birthday. The botoxed beauty turned 39 on Sunday, and received the photo from her ex with the handwritten caption "A very nappy birthday to you."

That doesn't sound true to us and the source is not that solid. If it is true, it lends some slight credibility to the rumor that Kidman is pregnant with her first biological child. She was seen with a tummy hanging out of her sweatpants during a recent yoga class, and seems to have some sort of a bump in these recent pictures.

Kidman is shown at the Shanghai International Film Festival and an Omega watches promotional event in China on June 17th. [via]

Renee Zellweger warns Nicole Kidman not to marry a country star

Renee Zellweger has reportedly told Nicole Kidman that all country stars who like to make money are terrible husbands, or something like that:

The 'Bridget Jones' Diary' star has reportedly begged her actress friend not to wed fiancé Keith Urban on June 25 because he is a workaholic just like her ex-husband, country music star Kenny Chesney.

A friend of Renée's told Britain's Grazia magazine: "She's been saying to Nicole, 'You won't know till your married and it's too late'.

"She says Keith has all the signs of being a workaholic and that is dangerous for Nicole and her family."

Nicole's father is also believed to have reservations about the marriage after his acView the profile for Nicole Kidman on Celebrity Spotlightress daughter - who has two adopted children from her marriage to Tom Cruise - refused to make Keith sign a pre-nuptial agreement.

A source revealed: "Her dad is against Nicole getting married without a pre-nup, but her mum thinks she should follow her heart."

The 'Moulin Rouge' star has invited 80 close friends and family to her nuptials at Sydney's Mary MacKillop Chapel next week, and has arranged for Australian celebrity chef Luke Mangan to cook a wedding breakfast for all the guests.

What about Keith being an alcoholic, not just a workaholic, and an ex-drug addict and philanderer?

The source is some random British magazine, and most of the British rags make shit up wholesale, so we don't really believe this. It sounds like something a gossip writer would come up with.

Meanwhile some priest who claims to have advised Kidman and Urban on their wedding is said to be revealing private details about it.

The priest, Father Paul Coleman, says he counseled the Kidmans on Nicole’s decision to get married again, so that the ceremony could be a legit Catholic one. Coleman told CNS, “For Nicole, you know this is a spiritual homecoming, coming back to the church and her faith in her old parish."

Coleman claims that the wedding will not take place at Sydney's Mary MacKillop Chapel or Monte Sant'Angelo Mercy College - the two locations that have received the most buzz in the gossip world. He says that those places are not "large enough to accommodate such a social wedding." Indeed, if you count the Australian celebrity guests alone, this wedding may be the A-list event of the year. The Morning Herald reports that attendees may include Naomi Watts, Hugh Jackman, Russell Crowe, Baz Luhrmann and Rupert Murdoch.

And while Bette Midler denied recent rumors that she would be performing at the nuptials, there may be some star-powered singing that night after all. News of the World, a British newspaper, is reporting that Keith may do some crooning during the reception.

Someone made that priest up, because no clergy member would give their real name and reveal details like that to the press. Maybe we're grumpy today, but people want to get news about the Urban-Kidman wedding and are just pulling this out of their asses.

Nicole Kidman is frigid

Nicole Kidman is supposedly withholding sex from her fiance Keith Urban until he marries her on June 25th:

Nicole Kidman has put a sex ban on her fiance Keith Urban.

The 'Cold Mountain' actress has told the country singer they won't have sex again until their wedding night - which is rumoured to be taking place in a few weeks time.

A source told Britain's Daily Sport newspaper: "Going four weeks without sex will certainly increase the passion on their wedding night."

Nicole reportedly got the sex ban idea from her friend Russell Crowe. The 'Gladiator' star went for months without sex before he married Danielle Spence in 2003.

Russell said: "I was determined there would be a lot of pent-up energy on the big night."

Nicole is due to marry the country singer Urban in a chapel near Sydney on June 25.

This sounds made up, but it's pretty funny and we're prone to believe it. Kidman is Catholic and probably thinks that she can make up for lots of premarital sex by pretending it never happened for a little while.

While Urban's publicist did confirm his engagement with Nicole right after she announced the news, he was reportedly pissed off when she made it public and doesn't feel ready to get married. It also seems as if Nicole and Keith have had problems in their relationship, with some reports saying that Keith wanted time off a little over a month ago. There's also a rumor that he's drinking a lot and sleeping around.

Withholding sex from a guy is a dangerous way to pique his interest in you, and Nicole is probably trying to hold out for a while in the hope that Keith will realize what he's missing. This reminds me of an Eddie Murphy sketch where he compares lack of sex causing you to go crazy for a woman to being really hungry and thinking crackers are delicious. It might work for Nicole, but if Keith is getting his kicks elsewhere this strategy will backfire.

In related news, Bette Midler has denied that she's been asked to sing at the Kidman-Urban wedding.

Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban make it official

Nicole Kidman announced her engagement to Keith Urban yesterday after bringing him as her date to a UN function on Sunday while wearing a conspicuously large ring on her left ring finger.

In New York City on Saturday, Nicole Kidman hosted the 30th Anniversary gala for the organization UNIFEM. Her date? Keith Urban, who she admitted is not just her boyfriend. "He's actually my fiancé," Kidman exclusively told PEOPLE on Monday. "I wouldn't be bringing my boyfriend."

The confirmation of the engagement ends months of speculation about the couple, who were first spotted together in July 2005. In November, Kidman was photographed wearing a ring on her wedding finger while walking arm-in-arm with Urban in Boston. At the time, Urban's rep told PEOPLE about a possible engagement, "Right now it's just a rumor."

People have been saying that Nicole plans to marry Keith since December, 2005, and that's excellent that she's finally announced the news. She was seen out in the Hamptons a month ago with what looked like a wedding ring on her left hand, so it's possible that the two are already married - or at least consider themselves to be.

Update: The Scoop has details of the planned wedding, as published in In Touch:

Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban’s wedding will be a traditional Catholic ceremony in her homeland of Australia in mid-June, according to Life & Style Weekly, followed by a weeklong honeymoon in Fiji. “Nicole’s wedding will be the polar opposite of whatever Tom Cruise is cooking up,” a “close friend” of Kidman told the mag. “She has no desire for anything remotely fancy.” Her daughter Isabella and sister Antonia will be maids of honor and Keith’s brother Shane, will reportedly serve as best man. The bride and groom are asking that money be donated to charity in lieu of gifts. .

Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban are going strong

Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban were rumored to be having relationship trouble, as reported by The National Enquirer at the beginning of the month. We mentioned that it didn't seem true to us.

Kidman and Urban seem to be doing well, becaue they made a rare public appearance together on Saturday at a United Nations Development Fund for Women event. Nicole Kidman serves as a goodwill ambassador and hosted the event, a 30th anniversary celebration for the organization:

United Nations Development Fund for Women (UNIFEM) Goodwill Ambassador, actress Nicole Kidman lit up the Hilton New York ballroom today as she played host at UNIFEM's 30th anniversary gala. Ms Kidman was joined by a bevy of luminaries from the diplomatic, business, entertainment and fashion worlds, who gathered to honour Liberian President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, and Terry J. Lundgren, Chairman, President and CEO of Federated Department Stores, Inc.

"Commemorating UNIFEM's 30th anniversary is a special opportunity for me to bring UNIFEM's accomplishments to the attention of a larger audience of concerned citizens," said Ms Kidman, as she welcomed a packed room of almost 500 guests.

"So many people have come together this evening, not just to look back on UNIFEM's 30 very impressive years but to look ahead - when you've been blessed with a fortunate life, it is very much your duty to find the places where you can give back. I'm so proud to be part of UNIFEM's present and future."

UNIFEM aims to "foster women's empowerment and gender equality" through programs supporting women throughout the world.

In the pictures of the event, there was no sign of the wedding ring that Nicole was spotted wearing while in the Hamptons at the end of April. She is wearing the engagement ring that she has been seen with at earlier events. It's also difficult to tell if she's pregnant, as has been widely rumored.

That's good news that Nicole and Keith are donig well, and we hope a wedding for the two will happen soon.

Is Nicole Kidman a bad mother?

People are saying that Nicole Kidman hasn't seen her kids in ages while crazy Tom Cruise is jetting all over the world, but still manages to go to Conner and Isabella's sports matches.

Star thinks it has to do with Tom's controlling nature, but it sounds to us like Nicole Kidman just doesn't care:

The actress' kids, 13-year-old Isabella and 11-year-old Connor, haven't really been seeing a whole lot of their mom lately, and actually, the last time she was photographed with her kids was Christmas of 2004 at a Lakers game in L.A.

Proud papa Tom Cruise, 43, and stepmom-to-be Katie Holmes, 27, are regularly spotted making out in the stands at Connor's baseball games and Isabella's soccer matches, the kids' formerly ubiquitous mom seems conspicuously MIA. Although she has clearly spent some time with the children since then — and even introduced them to her groom-to-be, Keith, 38, over a casual, gigglefilled dinner at the Hotel Bel-Air in L.A. on Dec. 20 — it seems that Nicole just isn't as present in her kids' lives as she was before.'

A source claims, "Nicole probably isn't seeing as much of the kids as she'd like to, but her hands are tied."

"She's juggling traveling from movie sets to Nashville and Australia to be with her family. If she wants to see the kids, she has to come to L.A. and deal with Tom."

Also, Kidman's spokesperson told Star the actress avoids being photographed with her children for "privacy reasons".

But reports suggest that it may be Tom Cruise that is preventing his ex-wife from spending time with them.

A source says, "It's not like Tom's actively keeping her out of their children's lives, but it's in his nature to control things."

"He micromanages their schedule — sports, home-schooling, Scientology studies."

The source continues, "I think she knew when she and Tom divorced that she'd lose a certain amount of control over her kids' lives."

"But she deserves to play a bigger role. Maybe the best she can hope for is now that they're getting older, they'll start to make their own decisions."

Obviously the source is a friend of Nicole's and is making excuses for her absence from their lives. We aren't a fan of Tom, but couldn't Nicole make more of an effort to see her children?

It came out in January that a former nanny of Nicole and Tom said that Nicole was never around at all.

Tom may be a crazy cult spokesperson, but at least he's there for his kids.

Here are Tom and Katie in Aberdeen, WA for a sort-of premiere for MI3.

Did Keith Urban break Nicole Kidman's heart?

Nicole Kidman's profile on the Oscars red carpet
The National Enquirer is running an exclusive that claims that Keith Urban has called off plans to marry Nicole in order to focus on his sobriety. They claim that Nicole had a fall wedding in Tahiti planned, but that Urban canned it and wants time off from the relationship:

Nicole Kidman is devastated because fiancé Keith Urban has cancelled their fairytale wedding, saying he wanted a break from the Oscar-winning actress, sources have exclusively told The ENQUIRER.

Country superstar Keith has called a time-out in their romance to concentrate on his long-running battle with alcohol and drugs.

Sources say that Nicole had already set a date and started making plans for a fall wedding in Tahiti when the handsome star, voted Country Music Entertainer of the Year in 2005, delivered the bombshell news.

"Nicole is heartbroken — she thinks Keith is the man for her," said an insider. "Keith told her he wanted to cool things down before the CMT Awards in Nashville in April ... and Nicole was just gutted." They separated at that point — with Keith staying in Nashville and Nicole going off to The Hamptons to shoot a new movie.

A grim-faced Nicole, 38, has been spotted in East Hampton, New York, without the spectacular 3.5 carat ring that Keith, also 38, is said to have given her for the unofficial engagement last November.

This doesn't seem true to us for a few reasons. First of all, Nicole may not have been wearing her engagement ring while she was in the Hamptons, but she was seen with a plain gold band that looked suspiciously like a wedding ring.

From what we heard, Nicole was planning a summer wedding in Australia, not a fall wedding in Tahiti. The Sun reports today that Nicole has set the date for June 25th, beating Tom and Katie's expected 4th of July wedding.

Urban may have wanted some time away, but it sounds like a temporary thing, and the "insider" may have been reporting old news. They made a reference to the CMT awards, which were on April 10th, nearly a month ago. Keith spoke of Nicole specifically at the CMT awards, in what was viewed as his first public admission of their relationship. Plus, Nicole could be pregnant and has been seen with what may be a growing baby bump.

Hopefully Nicole and Keith will get married soon and put all these silly rumors behind them.

Naomi Watts is so pregnant

Naomi Watts' Oscar attire included a ripped dress and a flouncy ruffled number that may have been a misguided attempt to hide a growing baby bump. (Yes, we said this already, but a little repetition never hurts.)

Now she was spotted out at the Tribeca film fest with her boyfriend, Liev Shreiber, wearing a full-out poncho with horizontal stripes! Her face looks more filled out too.

Schreiber is said to have bought Watts a 5 carat engagement ring at jeweler Neil Lane. Watts kept her hands conspicuously in her pockets while these pictures were taken, and it's hard to see if she's wearing a ring.

Watts and Schreiber have been plagued by rumors that their relationship is in trouble, with The NY Daily News reporting that Schreiber is controlling and that both were looking for new partners. Reader Millie points out that The NY Daily News doesn't like Schreiber and that they "never fail to take a stab at him." She thinks that Watts and Schreiber each had a difficult childhood and are having trouble adjusting to a long-term stable relationship. (We have learned a lot from readers like Millie and Carrie, so please e-mail tips and insight to info at celebitchy.com.)

Watt's friend Nicole Kidman also looks pregnant and may already be married to her boyfriend, Keith Urban. Sources say that the Kidman and Urban are planning a June wedding in their native Australia, but we think they're already married.

Here she is at the Tribeca film festival yesterday. We can't wait for the official news!

Exclusive: are Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban already married?

Nicole Kidman was photographed leaving a Starbucks in the Hamptons on 4/21 while clutching a pile of papers. Commentors on the bulletin board where we found the pictures note that she looks like she's covering a baby bump, especially in a side picture (shown inset) that seems to show a lower-stomach bulge. No one noticed that she's wearing what looks like a wedding ring on her left ring finger, though, suggesting she may have already married her boyfriend of less than a year, Keith Urban.

People have suggested Nicole is pregnant for a few weeks, and that she's planning a wedding to country singer Keith Urban. With these new pictures of Nicole hiding a baby bump and wearing a wedding ring, she may be confirming that both rumors are true.

Meanwhile someone made up the quote from Kidman wishing just Katie Holmes and her baby well, and seeming to deliberately leave Tom out:

The Australian actress was quoted yesterday saying “I hope mother and baby are doing well” after hearing news of Suri’s birth earlier in the week.

However, Kidman’s publicist Catherine Olin has vehemently denied her client ever passed on her good wishes to the happy couple.

She fumes, “I've been deluged with press queries on the back of this and I'm completely taken aback.

"Ms Kidman never issues statements about her personal life. I'm her publicist and I never released this statement."

If Kidman is indeed pregnant and married, the press will soon be focussing on her and not as much on her freaky ex and his new baby.

Nicole and Keith to wed?

Nicole Kidman's profile on the Oscars red carpet
The rumors that Nicole Kidman, 38, and Keith Urban, 38, are getting hitched seem to come up frequently, but this time there's a decent reason: Nicole has been granted an annulment from her 11 year marriage to Tom Cruise. This clears the way for her to marry again in a Catholic ceremony.

“It is believed Kidman has been told she would be granted an annulment of her marriage to Cruise because that marriage did not conform to the requirements of the church,” according to Australia’s Sunday Mail.

It is also rumored that Kidman's parents want her to make Urban sign a prenupital agreement so that he can't get his hands on her fortune.

Meanwhile there's supposed to be a scandalous reason behind Nicole and Tom's divorce that may be revealed by the surveillance tapes that were seized in an FBI investigation of the private eye that Tom hired to snoop on Nicole. No one seems to know what the scandal is exactly, so the mere existence of one doesn't mean that it's newsworthy.

Keith Urban goes public with his romance with Nicole Kidman

Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban at the Grammys

Keith Urban has finally admitted that he has a relationship with Nicole Kidman and is living with her. Extra TV reports that he referred to Nicole while he was hosting a country music event:

For the first time, Keith Urban is telling the world about being in love with Nicole Kidman. And while on the record, he admitted they're living together in Nashville.

"For me, it's hasn't been as bad as everyone thinks," Urban admitted. "You know, it's not like their stalking outside our house 24/7, it's not like that."

Urban made the comments during a co-hosting stint on "Country Showdown USA." While he wouldn't get into wedding rumors, he did say there are some things he and Nicole just can't do.

"There are certain things you want to go do together, and you want your mate to be there," Urban said. "But mostly you just try and, you know, pick places where you shouldn't be going because it's going to be too crazy."

Things got crazy a week ago when news outlets speculated that Kidman was planning a wedding because she was nowhere to be found. It turns out that she was just spending alone time with Urban.

The latest rumor according to Britain's The Sun is that Kidman and Urban are planning a wedding in Nashville in June.

Where's Nicole?

Nicole Kidman's profile on the Oscars red carpet
We reported two days ago that wedding rumors were heating up for Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban. Now Kidman has been missing for several days and people are speculating that she's holed up somewhere planning the nuptuals:

Nobody has spotted Nicole Kidman for several days and it's got the wedding rumor mill going into overdrive.

Editors from New York to Sydney are scrambling to find Nicole in case she's planning a secret wedding to her reported boyfriend, country singer Keith Urban, this weekend.

A source tells TMZ: "There have been strong rumors that these two are going to get hitched and with Nicole not around, everyone is panicking. We are checking her favorite hotels in Los Angeles, her apartment in New York and even her relatives Down Under to find her."

Nicole may simply be taking a rest at some out of the way spa, but we hope the rumors are true. We're rooting for Kidman to beat her crazy ex Tom to the altar.

Update: Jude Law's ex, Sadie Frost, is still not sure if Law cheated on her with Nicole Kidman after the two were photographed together by British tabloid The Sun. Kidman said that she only had a working relationship with Law and won a defamation suit against the tabloid. Law also denied the affair. Frost now says she can't be certain if Law hooked up with Kidman, because he's proved to be a cheater since.

More wedding rumors for Nicole and Keith

More news from the upcoming issue of In Touch. Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban are supposedly getting hitched in their native Australia:

It would appear that the Aussie Power Team™ of Nicole Kidman & Keith Urban will be tying the knot and getting married down under after all. According to a new report set to hit the newsstands on Friday, In Touch Weekly states that Nicole Kidman is finalizing plans for a lavish wedding despite denials from Nicole Kidman's Australian publicist.

"Too many people are involved to keep the time and place a secret for much longer," says a friend of Nicole.

Kidman and Urban met at an LA dinner honoring Australians in January 2005 and seem to have started dating over the summer. They initially struggled to keep their romance a secret. In fact Kidman was criticized for an August, 2005 publicist's statement that she was "enjoying a nice friendship" with Urban. The couple went public with their relationship at February's Grammy awards.

This is not the first wedding rumor for the pair. In late December The Sun reported that they were to be married "that weekend". A month later the rumor mill heated up again with stories of a wedding in March. Nicole's publicist denied those reports, calling them "nonsense." In February Nicole was said to be tired of ex-addict Keith's partying, and may have called off the engagement.

This seems like the most substantial wedding rumor yet. Nicole has been wearing a gorgeous diamond engagement ring and it seems to be just a matter of time before she marries Urban. While Nicole did not wear her ring to the Academy Awards, she did sit with Keith and took him to the Vanity Fair party as her date. We hope she beats her ex, Tom, to the altar.
