Actress Nicole Kidman has made a surprise appearance in a music video after 25 years, drawing widespread attention. While her striking visual of smoking and heading to a club captivated audiences, behind-the-scenes stories revealed her endearing clumsiness, bringing laughter to fans.
Kidman (59) appeared in the music video for Australian singer Troye Sivan's new song "She's the Best," released on the 14th. In the video, Kidman walks down the street wearing a sleek black leather dress, sunglasses, and a sparkling fringe jacket before exhaling cigarette smoke and entering a club. The scene then transitions to her locking eyes with Sivan as he performs on stage in the club, followed by them dancing together. The club sequence also featured numerous drag performers, including Sasha Colby, winner of "RuPaul's Drag Race" Season 15, drawing further attention.
This marks Kidman's first music video appearance since "Something Stupid" with Robbie Williams in 2001, a span of 25 years. In an interview with Rolling Stone, Sivan explained his reason for casting Kidman: "She has always been like a symbol of sacred femininity to me."
Upon the video's release, fans expressed surprise mixed with delight at the unexpected casting. The most-liked comment on YouTube read, "I never thought Nicole Kidman would appear in Troye Sivan's music video—it wasn't even on my life bucket list, but this is amazing." Other reactions exaggeratedly praised Sivan's comeback, with one fan stating, "He held Nicole Kidman's hand at the most critical moment before his comeback and said, 'Let's show them what we're capable of,' making this casting incredibly dramatic." Another fan exclaimed, "This is a tribute to women—simply the best," while others added, "Sivan is amazing for portraying femininity so diversely, intimately, and authentically."
The story behind the casting also became a topic of discussion. Sivan sent Kidman the song and video references, but at that moment, she received a call from an unknown number during a video conference. Sivan recalled, "Since it was an unknown number, I let it go to voicemail, but then text transcription started appearing. It said, 'Hi Troy, this is Nick,' so I immediately closed my laptop and ended the meeting."
Meanwhile, Kidman recently made headlines again by revealing her glamorous social routine in an interview with British Vogue. The club scene in this music video is now being re-examined as closely reflecting her actual lifestyle.
