Nicole Kidman Explains Why She Married Keith Urban After a Month of Dating: 'I'm Spontaneous'

Nicole Kidman is stunning and ethereal in Calvin Klein Collection on the cover of Elle magazine’s January 2015 issue, on newsstands December 16.

Here’s what the 47-year-old actress had to share with the mag:

On talking to her pregnant interviewer: “I had my last one at 43,” she responds. “My grandmother had her last at 49. Every month, I’m like, ‘I hope I’m pregnant!’ (to which her publicist replied ‘Off the record’) “‘Off the record’? I don’t mind! “Why not, right? I wish I was!”

On marrying Keith Urban after one month: “I’m spontaneous. I jump in. I kind of like getting married and then getting to know each other; I know that it sounds incredibly strange, but to me, it’s a more natural process.”

Good friend Sheryl Crow on her pal: “I think that she has been very poised throughout her public life, and sometimes people will misconstrue that; they see her as being an ice queen. The kind of scrutiny she’s been subjected to can’t be comfortable, and she’s dealt with it by being very careful�”that’s what gives people the wrong idea. She’s not someone we’re going to see out paddle-boarding in a G-string; she doesn’t set up situations where she’s playing to the paparazzi. She’s more old-school than that. She’s not that kind of movie star.”
