Nicole Kidman shows off the baby bounty at the Country Music Association Awards last week. She says her new curves helped her win her role in ‘Nine.’
Nicole Kidman isn’t coy about these baby bumps.
The Oscar-winning actress better known for meaty roles than actual curves suddenly filled out after she began breastfeeding her baby daughter, Sunday Rose, last summer.
“They’re not very big, my boobs, so they just became normal size. I loved it!” she titters in the December/January issue of Ladies’ Home Journal.
“I felt very Woman. When you’ve had a slightly androgynous body your whole life, having breasts is a nice feeling.”
Her country music hubby Keith Urban probably wasn’t complaining, either.
The “Bewitched” blond also cracks that business was swell after she bumped up a cup size or two, teasing in an Entertainment Tonight Canada interview that her bigger bosom is what clinched her role as a sultry beauty in the upcoming musical “Nine” starring Daniel Day-Lewis.
“[I had] big boobs because I was breast feeding – I was perfect for it,” she says. “I wouldn’t get cast now.”
The “Australia” actress took some time off after the baby was born, but couldn’t resist jumping back into the acting saddle when she heard about director Rob Marshall’s star-studded cast proposed for “Nine,” which also features Judi Dench, Penelope Cruz and Kate Hudson.
“I was not looking to go back to work,” she admits. “I went back to work because this was … the perfect kind of scenario. Part of me was nervous about going back to work … but they said I could bring my baby to the set, and Rob didn’t seem to find a problem at all, so then I was like, ‘Uh, this is heaven.”
