Graham Norton reveals the surprising reason why Nicole Kidman is always welcome on his chat show READ M ORE: Nicole Kidman embraces old Hollywood glamour at the 4th Annual Academy Museum Gala in Los Angeles By STEPHEN BISSET FOR DAILY MAIL AUSTRALIA Published: 11:01 GMT, 7 November 2024 | Updated: 11:08 GMT, 7 November 2024 e-mail 2 View comments Graham Norton has sung the praises of Aussie actress Nicole Kidman for always 'making an effort' on his UK chat show. And while the Irish funnyman, 61, has interviewed A-listers from all corners of the globe, he revealed to Woman's Day that Australians are always high on his list of favourites. 'They're never too grand for it,' Graham told the publication.
He also singled out Moulin Rouge star Nicole Kidman, 57, for special mention, saying that despite her huge fame, she always brings her A-game when appearing on Graham's show. 'Even someone like Nicole [Kidman] who has been famous for so long, will still make an effort,' Graham said of the Aussie star, who has appeared on The Graham Norton Show seven times. He added that Nicole's lack of Hollywood 'aloofness' and diva-like behaviour had always impressed.
'She won't just sit there and go: 'I'm Nicole Kidman, what more do you want?' Because she could. But she tries, she's still interested, she wants to hear the stories from the other guests.' When pressed on bad guest experienced, Graham remained tight-lipped but he did reveal how to deal with a 'boring' celeb.
