Nicole Kidman shuts down 'outrageous' sex question during Big Little Lies interview

As viewers around the world devour the final episode of season two, the stars of the show have taken to TV and radio to talk about the shocking last scenes.

This morning, Nicole Kidman, who plays Celeste Wright on the hit HBO programme, spoke with several breakfast shows and teased the outcome.

But one of her interviews stands out from all the others, after the hosts asked some rather "outrageous" questions.

While speaking to Kyle and Jackie O on Australian radio station KIIS 1065, the star was left very embarrassed and even told her interviewers to "shut up".

Following talk of her role on the show, Kyle Sandilands steered the discussion on to her country singer husband, Keith Urban.

Specifically he asked about Urban's recent song, Gemini, in which he references a Gemini woman who is a "maniac in the bed but a braniac in her head".

Since its release in 2018, Urban has confirmed that the lyrics are about his wife of 13 years.

Sandilands asked her: "Keith said that's about you in the bedroom, that you're a maniac in bed - do you say to him 'Watch what you say about me, darling?"

Kidman responded: "You're so bad! I don't censor his art. If I can be a muse for it..."

Co-host Jackie O, chimed in, saying: "It's not like he says you're a dud in the bedroom."

"That'd be worse," agreed Kidman. "It is embarrassing but at the same time it's better than saying 'God, I'm so bored. Make an effort, Nicole'."

However the conversation didn't end there.

Referencing another part of the racy song, Sandilands adds: "He also says you wake up in the middle of the night to get your freak on."

But the 52-year-old was done discussing her sex life and promptly shut down the line of quetioning.

"No. What? You're making that up, Kyle. Shut up. I'm not answering that. That's outrageous," she said.

Following this, the interview continued for another six minutes - better than her last conversation with the two hosts, in which Kidman is believed to have hung up on them.

Back in March Jacki O asked the star about her role in Destroyer and how she felt about making herself look "ugly" for it.

The actress did not seem keen to talk about her physical appearance and promptly wrapped up the call.
