Nicole Kidman's greatest gift to a friend ' 'a bunch of my own wild roses'

Nicole Kidman's greatest gift to a friend ' 'a bunch of my own wild roses'
It is such a joy to see Nicole Kidman at this moment in her career. She makes gutsy choices in projects, and she?s on a mission to champion emerging filmmakers, especially women. Having been a fan since way back, it?s particularly gratifying to see Nicole completely out of the shadow ? and power vacuum ? of Tom Cruise. Even when she won her Oscar in 2003, and she was working as much as she is now, you could tell that she was still sad. But now she just seems like she?s having a ball, she?s worked with almost everyone in Hollywood, and she?s happy to accept her flowers. She?s also happy to give her flowers, as she just told People Mag. Nicole was doing promotion alongside costars Matthew Macfadyen and Gael Garca Bernal for their new thriller, Holland, when a discussion of tulips in the film led Nicole to share that she grows her own wild roses. And if you?re an extremely super special friend, the best gift she can bestow is a bunch fresh from her garden.

Nicole Kidman has a thoughtful gift reserved only for the ?super special? people in her life.

The Oscar winner is surrounded by tulips as the star of the new thriller Holland, about a meticulous homemaker whose perfect life is upended when she suspects her husband is up to no good.

Kidman, 57, tells PEOPLE in an interview alongside her costars Matthew Macfadyen and Gael Garca Bernal. ?I love giving flowers, but I like growing them in the garden. I grow roses. My greatest gift to someone can be a bunch of my own wild roses.?

?So if you get that, it means you?re super special. There?s only a few of them though,? she adds, as Succession alum Macfadyen, 50, calls the gesture ?lovely.?

Her favorite flowers at the moment are tulips and daffodils, she says, and she?s also fond of fragrant varieties, like night-blooming jasmine, honeysuckle, gardenias, hyacinths and lilacs. The list goes on. ?I?d like to have a flower shop,? she says with a smile.

The trio?s twisty new thriller goes to some dark places, though they agree things stayed light on set.

?I think the darker the subject matter is, sometimes the more fun on set it is,? explains Macfadyen. ?Naturally, actors sort of play against how grim, or otherwise, the material is. Sometimes when you?re doing comedy, it?s quite serious. Everyone?s like, ?Is this funny???

?Yeah, that?s true,? agrees Kidman, who adds, ?But this is such an interesting tone, because it?s got that really dark humor, but it?s very? how it presents, it?s like a package with a big bow and then you unwrap it and you?re like, ?Oh!??

[From People]

I agree that giving flowers is one of the greatest gifts you can confer. In fact, when I was a little tyke at JCC, after learning about the 10 Commandments we were all asked to come up with a commandment of our own, and mine was: ?You should give people flowers.? My efforts are slightly less thoughtful than Nicole?s, though, since I don?t grow my own (I consistently kill plants and flowers, sigh). And speaking of, I can?t believe Nicole has the time to tend to her own garden! Is this in Tennessee? Are roses that hearty that they can survive global indie film schedules? And yet I still can?t keep a bloom alive in the apartment I?m in everyday? Also, who do we think has gotten one of these super special bunches? The only name I feel completely confident about is Naomi Watts.

As for Holland, it?s out now on Amazon Prime, and it?s at the top of my list for what to watch next. Every shot of Nicole in one of those Dutch Bonnets absolutely slays me. Plus she?s got that slightly psycho look in her eyes that?s giving me To Die For vibes ? I still think that movie is one of her best performances, ever. Only where Suzanne Stone was a cool character, Holland?s Nancy Vandergroot seems ready to burst in spectacularly unhinged fashion. I also feel, based on nothing more than the trailer, that a clog shoe may end up being a murder weapon.

Busy Philipps on Michelle Williams: 'When you have a friend like that, you?re blessed'

Busy Philipps on Michelle Williams: 'When you have a friend like that, you?re blessed'
Michelle Williams and Busy Philipps are an odd couple, yes? I don?t know them personally, obviously, but Michelle comes across as the quiet introvert who reads poetry, whereas Busy is the loud extrovert who reads People. Both are valid! You just kind of wonder what sparked the connection. Oh wait, I think I can start to answer my own question: they both share a tough, hustler core, from starting their respective showbiz careers as teenagers. Michelle often gets painted with a delicate persona, but she did legally emancipate herself at 15 in order to get more acting work. That takes some grit! Anyway, Busy is out promoting a new collaboration ? with California Pizza Kitchen, where she worked as a teen before being cast in Freaks and Geeks ? and she took a moment to wax poetic on the blessing of having a friend who?s been through thick and thin with her for 25 years:

?We just know each other and get each other in such a deep, fundamental way at this point,? the ?Girls5eva? star tells Page Six exclusively in a new interview.

Philipps notes that the pair have grown up together and ?been there through so many different moments in each other?s lives,? from the ?really wonderful ones? to those they thought they ?might never, ever recover from.?

She adds, ?When you have a friend like that, you?re blessed. Thats all you can really ever hope for in this life.?

Philipps, 45, and Williams, 44, met as co-stars on the sudsy ?90s and ?00s teen drama ?Dawson?s Creek? and have been BFFs ever since.

In fact, the ?Cougar Town? star is often the Oscar nominee?s plus-one at industry events.

?It makes it fun,? Williams told us at the 2022 Gotham awards.

?These things can be a little ? I don?t know if you ever really get used to being on a red carpet. It?s a little overwhelming, but then all of a sudden, I look over and see this gal, and I know whatever happens, we?re going to have a great time and laugh.?

Long before the duo were regular fixtures at Hollywood events, though, Philipps worked as a hostess at California Pizza Kitchen from the age of 15 until she landed her starring role in ?Freaks and Geeks.?

The former ?Busy Tonight? host swears she never grew tired of scarfing down the chain?s food ? not even while flying to the ?Dawson?s Creek? set in North Carolina.

?There was a CPK in the airport in Charlotte, and I would get my BBQ chicken pizza and eat it there on my layover,? she tells Page Six. ?And then I would get two of the Thai crunch salads and take them to Wilmington, and me and Michelle would eat it for lunch the next day.?

And so, Philipps freaked out when she got a call about teaming up with CPK again in honor of its 40th anniversary this year.

?The ad agency couldn?t believe that I knew the names of the CPK founders off the top of my head,? she shares with a laugh. ?I was like, ?Guys, I worked here for years!??

[From Page Six]

I gotta say, I was sorry E! gave up on Busy Tonight so fast. I think Busy is so well-suited to being an entertainment talk show host; she?s worked in the industry, knows how to laugh at herself and make others in the conversation comfortable, and she?s not afraid to dig into big topics. Also? Still knowing the founders names for CPK (or as we call the chain in my family, CaPiKi) 30 years later is crazy! As for her friendship with Michelle, they really have been through everything together. Marriages, babies, divorces, deaths, and attending Academy Awards. (Though Busy did get booted for Michelle?s recent nomination in 2023, when Michelle went with her husband instead.) For her part, Michelle should have ample opportunity to return the friend love to Busy, as she?s ramping up promotion for her new FX series, Dying For Sex, that comes out on Friday. I?m coming up on 20 years of friendship with my bestie, and yeah, there is no intimacy quite like it. Of course we?ve had plenty of fights, along with a few bouts of not speaking, but he?s still the first person I want to do things with, and he makes me laugh harder than anyone else. I?ve come to believe that finding your match in humor is really important.
