THE NICOLE NOBODY KNOWS

Whether it’s a daring cutout dress at the Country Music Awards or a custom Chanel tulle number at the Met Gala, Nicole Kidman almost always finds herself on the best-dressed list following a major event. But in a new interview with Elle, the Big Little Lies star, 56, reveals she’s thrilled to skip the posh afterparties.

“I want to get out, take my dress off and put my jammies on,” she says. “It’s kind of like the opposite of Cinderella—I’m happy to go home and just go back to me. 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.’
