Nicole Kidman’s husband Keith Urban has ended an interview abruptly after being asked an X-Rated question about her sex scenes in films.
Kidman has been very open about the sex scenes she films in the past, most notably in the press run for the recent Babygirl.
The Australian actor spoke about how, during production of the movie, she had to stop filming because she ‘couldn’t have any more orgasms’.
Many may find this dynamic odd, but it’s quite ordinary for actors to speak frankly about sex scenes. However, this didn’t stop Urban from being asked a very direct question about Kidman filming sex scenes.

The singer-songwriter, a celebrity name in his own right, was appearing on Australian radio show Hayley & Max in the Morning on Mix 102.3 when the incident occurred.
Max Burford, one of the hosts, asked Urban if he wanted to play a game called ‘Wall of Truth’ in which celebs are asked tricky personal questions.
He set up the question by explaining that in preparation for Urban potentially agreeing to play the game, he had been watching Kidman’s back catalogue of movies and shows.
He pointed to one in particular, referencing Zac Efron.
Kidman starred last year with Efron in Netflix’s A Family Affair in which a mother begins dating a much younger famous movie star, played by Efron.
Despite protestations from co-host Hayley Peterson, he asked: “What does Keith Urban think when he sees his beautiful wife with beautiful younger men like Zac Efron having these beautiful love scenes on TV?”
Urban, who was joining via Zoom, dropped off the interview right afterwards. The hosts were shocked, with Peterson asking if he hung up on them.
A producer on the show said that his team hung up as they didn’t want to answer that question, something which has been confirmed since the incident occurred.
His team was adamant that it was not Urban himself who hung up, saying in a statement to People: “Keith did not hang up, period… He doesn't host his Zoom interviews. This is a complete nothingburger.”
Kidman has previously clarified that the country-music star is quite chill about her filming sex scenes in movies, saying he understands it because ‘he is an artist’.
She said in an interview with E! News Daily Pop that he doesn’t have much say or idea what goes on, adding: “He sees the show at the very end when it's a show, all edited together, and he's fresh eyes.
“He doesn't read any script, he really doesn't know what's going on on the set, he's got his own career that he's completely absorbed in. He doesn't know much about what I'm really doing.”
