AUSTRALIAN FOR FUGLY Kidman
Nicole Kidman's fall wedding to Keith Urban was practically a state occasion in Australia, and she's regularly treated like the nation's most significant VIP. But Kidman isn't exactly stirring the loins of her countrymen.
The down-under version of lad rag FHM slights the star in its upcoming poll aimed at uncovering the 50 Sexiest Aussie Babes—surely a shock to the Australian export second only to Foster's. It's the "land of horrible bitey snakes, a million miles of parched rocks ... and the world's sexiest women!" boasts the magazine's site. The list is set to be released February 5.
Lest anyone cry ageism, "The Body" Elle McPherson, 43, made the shortlist of 87 nominees (Nicole's 39 years old ... eternally), as did Abbie Cornish, Naomi Watts, Kylie Minogue, Toni Collette, Isla Fisher, and Rose Byrne.
