Is Nicole Pregnant Enough? Who The Bloody Hell Cares!
Posted by Clem Bastow at 9:01 AM on April 24, 2008
Right, we're going to take this moment to declare a ban on any further press speculation about Nicole Kidman's pregnant tummy (note: NOT her "baby bump", which is a repugnant term than infantilises one of a woman's most womanly times).
It's no secret that pregnant celebrities get a hard time, though it used to be - in the case of, for example, Kate Hudson or Milla Jovovich - that they were "too fat!" or "can't stop eating for two!"
Quite frankly we feel the flipside of that, this unnerving obsession with Nicole Kidman's pregnant tum - or apparent lack of, if you listen to the frothing tabloids - is even more off. It seems she's not pregnant enough! She must be lying! There's no baby in there, maybe Keith's having it! Ho, ho. ho! Sadly, we're not making it up, either - all of those sentiments have been aired by newspapers and magazines over the past few months.
And now:
Of course they'd say they were referring to the "Little Kidman" that was "growing" inside her, but honestly, if the past month is anything to go by, it's just another thinly-veiled slight at Nicole's apparent inability to be "properly" pregnant.
Or perhaps you'd prefer this charming effort, from the Daily Mail?
Enough! She's doing fine, the baby's doing fine, her marriage is fine, can we all find something else to talk about now?

You should be stripped of the Defamer name, you are always fawning over Nicole, just like the rest of the Aussie media that worships "Our Nic".

Apparently, this is the first time that someone taller than 5 ft 9 has gotten pregnant. With her height, she should really start showing in her third trimester. Her first and second trimester should be about a small belly especially if there is just one baby in there. And to think it is women actually writing these articles, how ridiculous, lol.
Having seen the pictures, she looks blooming marvellous. And I am still waiting for that sagging face, wrinkled skin, hats and sunshades to hide her face that the New York Post gleefully promised in their blind item just before she announced her pregnancy and we all know they meant Kidman because looking at every picture since she got pregnant, she has been sans hat except for once on Bondi Beach or at the gym, she looks even more beautiful and younger. She is in good "nic", lol.
