“Lost The Plot”: Nicole Kidman, 57, Slammed For Trying To “Stay Relevant” With Underwear Dance

Nicole Kidman faced a wave of negative comments after playfully posing in a black bodysuit.

In a video shared on social media, the Oscar-winning actress is seen dancing to Lorde’s What Was That while wearing a long-sleeved, low-cut bodysuit paired with black tights.

She kept her strawberry blonde hair down and wore minimal makeup as she gazed into the camera from a balcony in France.

The clip, posted on Monday (April 28), sparked mixed reactions, with one viewer commenting that Nicole looked “almost unrecognizable.”

Another person said: “She’s lost the plot. Comes across as narcissistic, completely into herself.”

“Delusional…s*xualising herself to stay relevant,” a separate user complained.

However, others came to the defense of the star, with one supporter writing, “Jealous people need to stop. She is not hurting anyone. She is just enjoying life.”

Another commenter noted that there was no reason why Nicole shouldn’t feel free to pose in a bodysuit. “Agreed. Age is only a number.”

“Still one of the most beautiful women, truly a legend 🔥🌹,” wrote an additional fan.

The Australian actress recently traded her signature long blonde locks for a blonde bob wig while filming the second season of Nine Perfect Strangers.

In the show—based on the book of the same name by Liane Moriarty—Nicole plays Marsha, the enigmatic owner of a wellness retreat that uses unorthodox methods to help her guests.

The second season is scheduled to premiere internationally on Amazon Prime Video on May 22.

In March, Nicole revealed that she would be taking a break from acting this year, following a particularly busy 2024.

“I was much more out there last year; this year I have Holland, I have Nine Perfect Strangers, and then I’m off for the rest of the year,” she told The Hollywood Reporter.

Last year, the 57-year-old starred in Netflix’s mystery series The Perfect Couple, the steamy thriller Babygirl, the animated musical Spellbound, the Amazon Prime series Expats, season 2 of Lioness, and the rom-com A Family Affair.

The year was also marked by grief for Nicole, as her mother, Janelle Ann Kidman, passed away in September at the age of 84.

The actress left the Venice Film Festival early after learning of the heartbreaking news, and Babygirl director Halina Reijn accepted the Volpi Cup award for Best Actress on her behalf.

“She was my compass in a way,” Nicole said of her mother in an interview with Vanity Fair.

“So much of what she wanted for my sister and I was to create women in this world who felt like they could express themselves and have opportunities, especially things she didn’t have from her generation.

“She loved my career, she really did. She would be there through all the ups and downs, all of it. Her essence has been pretty much the driving force through my whole life.”

She’s also filming Margo’s Got Money Troubles,  a series that will focus on the world of the adult site OF

The mother of four will make an exception to her break to receive the Women in Motion Award at the Cannes Film Festival on May 18.

“A major figure in cinema, Nicole Kidman has built a career marked as much by her artistic audacity as by her virtuosity and transformative portrayals that have reshaped the representation of women on screen,” the prestigious film festival announced on Instagram.

“From Eyes Wide Shut and The Hours to Big Little Lies and Babygirl, her work reflects a deep commitment to bold, uncompromising storytelling.

“Since her 2017 pledge to work with a female director every 18 months, Kidman has exceeded that promise—collaborating with 19 to date—while using her platform and production company, @blossomfilms, to elevate women’s voices in film.”

The Apple TV+ show will focus on Margo Millet, the daughter of a Hooters waitress and an ex-pro wrestler who launches an OF page after becoming a single mom.

In addition to Nicole, the series will star Elle Fanning, Michelle Pfeiffer, and Nick Offerman.
