Kidman admitted that she wanted to move straight house after the awards show ended. She needed to be convinced to wait the afterparty.

“I’m no longer a large celebration woman, so I was going to skip the Vanity Fair birthday celebration, and everybody used to be like, ‘You’ve got to go. You’ve were given to walk during the birthday celebration sporting your Academy Award,’" Kidman continued. "I mentioned, ‘That simply appears like gloating, and it doesn’t feel humble.’ Like, what? You can’t walk via wearing the award! That feels actually inappropriate. They’re like, ‘That’s what you do.’"

Nicole went on, “So I literally walked in, carried it around, was completely overwhelmed, emotional, shaking, and I didn’t enjoy it. I was almost apologetic, which is so stupid. I wish I could have enjoyed it more.”

"I sat on the floor of the hotel eating French fries and a burger with my family and went to bed. That’s when it hit me. I went, I need to find my love; I need a love in my life. Because this is supposed to be when you go, ‘This is ours.’”

“I went to mattress by myself; I used to be in mattress ahead of midnight. If I ever received back, I’m telling you, I’d be out for 24 hours,” she concluded.
