LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Nicole Kidman created a buzz on the internet by wearing a Miu Miu micro skirt on the cover of Vanity Fair's February 2022 issue, which resembled a racy school uniform. Despite the criticism, the 54-year-old actress remains undeterred and was determined not to let critics hinder her from taking creative risks in her career.

In an interview with Stellar magazine, Kidman emphasized that she was committed to expressing herself freely and unapologetically. As a star known for her iconic roles, she continues to push boundaries and explore new horizons in her artistic journeyz. 

'I don't ever think of consequences'

"I make the most random, crazy choices. I call them 'teenage choices' because I just don't ever think of consequences," Kidman reportedly said, adding, "Part of my brain just doesn't think like that. I just go, 'Oh, I'm going to wear that; it reminds me of my school uniform.' Or 'Oh my God, yeah, I'd love to do that.'"
