Nicole Kidman's Breakup Bangs Prove She's Serving More Than Just Divorce Papers
After her split from Tom Cruise in 2001, Nicole Kidman showed just how her post-divorce style transformation was a glow-up for the ages. Now, she's proving yet again just how fierce she is amid her breakup from Keith Urban by rocking a fresh hairstyle. As reported by USA Today, Kidman showed up at the Chanel show for Paris Fashion Week on October 6, with her daughters, Sunday Rose and Faith Margaret. While the "Moulin Rouge" star kept her attire simple with an oversized white button-down and a pair of jeans, it was her new bangs that stole the show.
The new look comes after Kidman filed for divorce from Urban on September 30, citing irreconcilable differences, per TMZ. According to the documents, their daughters will spend the majority of the year with Kidman, but the two agreed to make joint decisions regarding the kids. The two parties will also walk away owing no alimony or child support to one another. Kidman and Urban's marriage had some glaring red flags, but it's still unclear what caused their divorce. Paris Fashion Week was the Oscar winner's first public appearance since filing, and she made sure to do so with a bang (pun intended). The effortless look was created by hairstylist Adir Abergel, and he shared the inspiration behind Kidman's new 'do that has everyone talking.
Nicole Kidman's statement hair has a new meaning after her divorce
Nicole Kidman has had quite the hair transformation since her early acting days, and her Paris Fashion Week style shows she's not done evolving. It turns out that her breezy new look was a nod to the past, with hairstylist Adir Abergel telling People, "We pulled references from the early 1970s — think soft texture, lived-in movement, and that iconic French-girl nonchalance." The effortless 'do was created by using serum and an anti-frizzing cream, and then shaping the strands to create natural waves.
Fans are digging Kidman's divorce bangs, with one sharing on X, "Nicole Kidman looks so good I want to get a divorce (I'm single)." Another wrote, "Nicole Kidman getting bangs immediately after breaking up with that tiny man is so girl/breakup coded. Happens to the best of us." This wasn't the first time a celeb debuted hot bangs after a breakup. Fans may remember Reese Witherspoon showing off her new fringe at the 2007 Golden Globes following her split from Ryan Phillippe. It looks like Kidman is taking a page out of her "Big Little Lies" co-star's book, and we're loving this epic power move.
