Nicole Kidman and her Sexiest Man Alive co-star, Hugh Jackman, went on the German television show Wetten, Dass...? this weekend in support of their new flick, Australia. When a didgeridoo was brought out these two crazy kids really let loose (photographic evidence above). According to an Aboriginal cultural leader, however, by showing off her most excellent didgeridoo skills, Nicole screwed herself out of having more babies.
Screenwriter and Aboriginal language teacher Richard Green told the Sydney Morning Herald that by playing the instrument, Nicole's chances of having more children went up in smoke.
"People are going to see Nicole playing it and think it's all
right," Richard said. "It bastardises our culture. I will guarantee she has no more children.
It is not meant to be played by women as it will make them barren."
(Dude is personally guaranteeing that Nicole has no more children? WOAH. Maybe Nicole should have stuck with blowing other things instead? Just sayin'.)
A couple of questions come to mind after reading this rather fascinating little news story. Straight off the top: If the movie being promoted is called Australia and it's two stars and the director hail from said country, wouldn't at least one of them be aware of the tradition that says women don't play didgeridoos lest they become infertile?
And. What the hell kind of jig is Hugh dancing, anyway? He looks ridiculous, and maybe a little on the smashed side. (But still totally hot. Rawrr!)















Hugh Jackman soooo doesn't do it fo me - he really gets my Gaydar pinging...
