Remember that time Alexander Skarsgård won the 2017 Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Limited Series and promptly got a big kiss on the lips from work wife/Big Little Lies costar Nicole Kidman as a congratulations—right in front of her actual husband, Keith Urban and Skarsgård’s mom? Well, Nicole remembers it too, but honestly, it seems like she'd rather forget the whole thing.
In a recent appearance on The Graham Norton Show, Norton congratulated Kidman on her big win for outstanding lead actress in a miniseries or movie and then promptly pulled up the photo of the actress and Skarsgård mid-embrace, with her hands on the side of his face looking lovingly at each other. Kidman was not having any of it. She scolded Norton, saying, "You are so provocative, Graham. Why are you showing that?" She added, "I kissed my husband too."
If you're a fan of Big Little Lies, you'll know that Skarsgård and Kidman tackled some extremely loaded topics, including domestic violence, via their married characters, Celeste and Perry, in the HBO limited series. And based on that kiss, the two are also close in real life. But while Twitter lost its collective mind at the show of affection, not to worry—Keith didn't seem to mind one bit.
Fellow guest Bryan Cranston got a comment in when Norton zoomed in on Keith Urban's face next to the two. He said, "It looks like Keith is applauding the kiss." Because Keith Urban always looks at Nicole Kidman like she is the one true angel on this earth, he's beaming in the picture.
Nicole added further, "I did kiss him, but you've got to understand, I did everything with Allie." That sweet nickname, plus the obvious ambiguity of her statement made everyone crack up, so Kidman moved on to the topic of her IRL husband. "I've got an amazing, supportive, gorgeous husband, who I love more than anything in the world. I gave Alex a congratulatory kiss, and he's more like a...mannequin."
As the crowd erupts in laughter at that word choice, Kidman decides she's said enough, and the group skips on right to the next topic. Sorry, Alexander Skarsgård. You're much more than a mannequin to us. See the hilarious moment for yourself, below.
