Nicole Kidmanis getting honest about how glamming up for a red carpet actually makes her feel.
In an interview forElle’sApril 2024 Impact issue, the actress, 56, shared that getting ready to attend A-list events can be “overwhelming” and “a little unreal at times.”
“I want to get out, take my dress off, and put my jammies on,” said Kidman. “It’s kind of like the opposite of Cinderella—I’m happy to go home and just go back to me. It does feel a little overwhelming. I’m like, ‘I need to go home now. I’m very tired. I want to get warm, and I want to curl up, and I want to feel real.'”

Although Kidman gets to enjoy many different experiences, she toldEllethat she gets fulfillment in life from the people she loves.
“I have a very full life with people that I love. I’m raising daughters. I’m a wife, I’m a best friend. I’m a sister, I’m an aunt. I have deeply intimate relationships with people,” she said. “And that, to me, is the meaning of life—and then taking care of what we leave behind, who we leave behind and how we do that, and our sense of respect for that.”
