Long Island, Nicole Kidman’s face is the internet’s new favorite show.
Tate McRae danced right up to the front row at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show on Sunday night. Sitting there in a crisp white shirt and a tie? Nicole Kidman. Eyes wide. Mouth open. People caught it on camera, and now a body language expert has weighed in.

The expert’s read
Body language expert Inbaal Honigman told Cheatsheet that Kidman’s crossed legs and hands folded on her knee looked protective, at first suggesting she’d rather be “anywhere else.” Then the read flipped. Honigman said a little smile crept into that surprised “O,” a sign Kidman wasn’t just shocked but “very, very impressed.”
Of course, that’s one expert’s take. Neither Kidman nor McRae has said a word about it.
Her night, her song
Kidman, 59, sat next to Vanessa Bryant, whose daughter Natalia walked the show. Earlier, models hit the runway to Adéla’s viral hit “Nicole Kidman,” a song named after her. Kidman laughed and blushed.
Then Tate took the stage in head-to-toe red and gave the first-ever live performance of “Housewife,” the single she dropped days earlier.
