Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban Photo Credit: Jason Merritt/Getty Images ( CMT Offstage keeps a 24/7 watch on everything that's happening with country music artists behind the scenes and out of the spotlight.) There's another man in Nicole Kidman's life these days, but I don't think Keith Urban has anything to worry about. For one thing, this man is green and hairy and lives in a trash can. For another, he calls Kidman "vocabulary face." And I don't think he means it in a good way. His name is Oscar the Grouch, and he and Kidman met on the set of Sesame Street when she was there to tape a guest appearance. Of the experience, she said, "This is a lifelong dream for me to be on Sesame Street . I started watching Sesame Street when I was about 4." Then she tells Oscar that the two of them are going to tell everyone the word of the day -- "stubborn" -- which is when he calls her vocabulary face. But even with the name calling, Kidman seeme...

The Queen, the family of the actress Nicole Kidman, King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia and the media tycoon Ted Turner are just some of the most powerful global landowners. The world relative to its human population is quite large. It is 123 billion acres in size, of which 37 billion acres are land. This means that there are a notional four acres available for every man, woman and child in the predicted 2050 world population 0f nine billion, which would be an increase of two billion on the present population. But notional is not real, and what is noticeable when looking at how the 37 billion acres are used by nature and humanity is that the urban area, humanity's footprint on the land patch, is extremely small, at 1.5 per cent. This conflicts with the common rhetoric of environmentalists, which too often comes fact-free. Land use has historically tended to follow claims to ownership, defined as the right to the use of and disposal of land. The relationship between humans and land begins...

The 2006 movie Fur: An Imaginary Portrait of Diane Arbus may not be a masterpiece. Yet the mere fact that a biopic about a photographer, a generation after her suicide, found a producer is remarkable. In the U.S., Arbus (1923-71) is a star whose prints fetch astronomical prices. In France, she had been virtually ignored. The retrospective at the Jeu de Paume is the first major exhibition of her work in Paris. Regrettably, the organizers follow neither a chronological nor a thema...

How would you like to have a famous Hollywood celebrity as your landlord? If you have enough cash, now you can. Some celebrities have listed their house on the rental market, as even stars are not immune to the bursting of the housing bubble. Some do it because they simply can't find a buyer, while others do it because the rental yield is more lucrative than offers they receive to buy the house. Take a look at some of these famous landlords here, what they're renting out, and whether you can afford it. Click on thumbnail to view

SYDNEY -- The global financial crisis hit the earnings of Australias top entertainers in the 2010-11 financial year, but leading ladies Naomi Watts and Nicole Kidman proved they could still rake in the dollars in the tough times largely through endorsements, according to business magazine BRW , which released its annual top entertainers rich list Thursday. But while Australians based in Hollywood made up around 18% of the list, it was Melbourne-based animatronic design and live event producers Global Creatures which topped the list, as it did last year, with $62 million earned, as it wrapped the global tour of its Walking With Dinosaurs arena show. Next for Global Creatures is its joint venture show with DreamWorks, How To Train Your Dragon: the Arena Spectacular , set to premiere early in 2012.

Call it the Hollywood Virus or call it what you will, but there's only one explanation for "The Invasion." The film -- a remake of a remake of a remake of a screen adaptation of a magazine serial -- is all the proof we need that America's artistic imagination is shrinking. It's also a sad testament to the corporate world's refusal to take risks, even in businesses built on them. "The Invasion" is merely the latest stab at a decades-old story hatched by Jack Finney in Collier's magazine. Finney later took his magazine serial and turned it into a novel, which is what "The Invasion" is supposedly based on. But moviegoers can't seriously be expected to view the film sans recollections of the 1956 and 1978 versions of "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" or even the lesser-known 1993 film "Body Snatchers." Each of those pictures share the same plot, and it goes something like this. Alien meanies are attempting to take ove...

LOS ANGELES (TheWrap.com) - Jean Dujardin and Brnice Bejo , the stars of the silent film "The Artist," will receive the Cinema Vanguard Award from the 2012 Santa Barbara International Film Festival , SBIFF announced on Tuesday evening. The award, which in the past has gone to the likes of Nicole Kidman , Christoph Waltz, Stanley Tucci and Vera Farmiga , is designed to recognize actors who are "taking artistic risks and making a significant and unique contribution to film." In this case, perhaps, SBIFF means a contribution to a film, since Dujardin and Bejo were little-known in the United States before "The Artist" debuted to raves at Cannes and became a major player in the Oscar race. The Santa Barbara announcement, which was made by festival executive director Roger Durling , makes "The Artist" a rare film that will be feted at both of Southern California's January film festivals, which often compete to bestow awards on Oscar contenders. ...

Jojo Whilden/ Lionsgate Lionsgate has been sued by a consulting firm that alleges it is owed money for services provided to help its slate of films garner Academy Award nominations. The work is said to have resulted in an Oscar nod for Nicole Kidman in the best actress category for Rabbit Hole , and the firm says it is entitled to $61,500 plus interest. PHOTOS: 2011 Oscars Red Carpet The lawsuit was filed in Los Angeles Superior Court earlier this month by CBB Consulting, which says it was contracted in August 2010 to provide logistical services in advance of awards season. Per the agreement, CBB was to get $12,000 per month from August until the Academy Awards telecast in late February. The agreement provided a right to terminate with five days written notice. On November 1 2010, Lionsgate allegedly informed CBB of its intention to terminate. According to the complaint, the explanation given was "financial reasons."
