I guess Nicole Kidman has dropped out of her most recent movie, The Reader, which was supposed to start filming later this month.

Sources are saying she dropped out to protect her unborn baby, but Nicole is denying rumors she is pregnant.

Me? I’m on Botox-watch. If Nicole is preggers, she can’t be using Botox. We ran these pics of Nicole a few weeks ago, where she definitely looked like she’d been slacking on the Botox. Now we have a new set of Nicole out at lunch with her friends in Sydney, and it’s hard to get a good view of her eyes, where the difference should be most noticeable, but she definitely looks like she’s back to being the youthful-looking Nicole.

What do you guys think?

Oh, this is rich. In a new interview with Parade magazine, the increasingly normal-seeming Katie Holmes announces that Tom’s two adopted children — from his marriage to Nicole Kidman, call her “Mom”:

His first two children are incredible, really smart and kind. They call me “Mom.”

Nicole’s the same woman who recently talked about how very, very sad she’d be if she couldn’t have a biological kid. If I were one of her adopted kids, I wouldn’t want to call that woman “Mom,” either.

Full interview with Katie is after the jump.

Is it just me or does Nicole Kidman look like absolute hell here?

She’s usually so stunning at red carpet events, but she’s looking more like the crypt-keeper in this set of shots.

What happened???

At a charity screening Of “The Golden Compass” in Australia.

It just makes her look even more pale than usual.

She’s still gorgeous, though.

Despite any reports of trouble in their marriage — and Keith’s fantastically sober motorcycle crash last week — Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban looked like quite a happy couple as they were snapped in NYC last night.

Nicole Kidman is really tired of hearing all of this Suri shit. In an upcoming interview with Vanity Fair, Tom Cruise’s ex reveals that she miscarried his baby at the age of 23. The couple later adopted two children.

Now 40, and married to country singer Keith Urban — who recently did a stint in rehab — Kidman hasn’t given up on her dreams of motherhood.

“I’m yearning to have one. I think I would be very sad if I wasn’t able to have a baby. Keith knows I want one, and he has been getting there slowly.”

God, that must make those adopted kids feel so awesome about themselves. Yay, Mommy adopted me when she couldn’t have kids biologically! And she thought there was some chance that I might be good enough! But I totally wasn’t!

Kidman also spoke about feeling lonely after she won her Best Actress Oscar for The Hours.

“You’re in a hotel and you’re like, ‘Okay, well, I’m sitting in this big suite with an Oscar and I still don’t have a life – what is wrong with me? Who do I jump on the bed with, and celebrate with, and order pancakes with?’ That was painful, not having that person to share it with.”

But Nicole’s not yet done dropping bombs — she also reveals to the magazine that she was engaged to someone between Tom and Keith. How did we miss that?? Damn you, Nicole! You’re not supposed to hide stuff from us.

“I got engaged to somebody … but it just wasn’t right. I wasn’t ready. We weren’t ready.”

Who was that somebody? Lenny Kravitz, perhaps? Hmmm.

I am all for getting plastic surgery on your body. Get some boobs! Lift your butt! Lipo lipo lipo. Ladies, however, stay away from messing with your face.

Lip injections, too much botox, and a few unfortuneate nips and tucks have made Nicole Kidman a creepy version of her former self. Take a cue from Michelle Pfeiffer. She has allowed herself to age gracefully and still looks like herself.

You can’t be young forever, and somehow I have a feeling Nicole has aged herself by being too thin and tweaking with her natural beauty.
Here are some pictures of Nicole pre-plastic.
