On Thursday’s Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, the 49-year-old actress stopped by to promote her new movie Lion — her first appearance on the show
since a painfully awkward interview in January 2015 in which she reminded Fallon that the two had once gone on a date.
“You wouldn’t talk,” she told Fallon then. “You wouldn’t say anything, and then you put a video game on or something … and so after about an hour and a half, I thought, ‘He has no interest, this is so embarrassing’ and then I was like, ‘Maybe he’s gay.’ ”
Fallon teased Kidman about the failed date on Thursday — but the Oscar winner didn’t appear to be laughing. “I so didn’t want to come back,” she
said.
She then reminded the 42-year-old comedian that their date wasn’t the only time he blew her off.
“You had a chance to ask for my number a second time and you didn’t,” she said.
“We were at David Fincher’s house — I think it was David’s house,” she explained. “And it was when Brad and Jen were still together, so it was a long
time ago. And you could have asked for my number then because it was round two — second chance.
And you still didn’t ask for it.”
He appeared to not remember — which only seemed to upset Kidman more. “That’s even more offensive that you don’t remember,” she said. “You’re
kidding, aren’t you? Do not pretend!”
The Oscar winner gave more details of he encounter.
“Do you remember the kitchen and the buffet? They had the food laid out in the kitchen — it was a big dinner party. And my agent had said, ‘Jimmy’s gonna be there and you’ll see — he can ask for
your number.’ And we were lurking in the kitchen cause everyone went out. And I’m waiting and waiting and waiting. And you’re at the buffet — and you still didn’t ask for my number.”
“You were so not interested,” Kidman added, pointing out how the audience was shocked. “It’s okay… it’s okay…”
Fallon said that the real reason the audience is shocked is because “You were out of my league.”
“They’re like, ‘He wouldn’t have a chance in hell with Nicole Kidman! Why would I even ask you?’ ”
Both Kidman and Fallon are happily married now.
But to twist the knife in a little more, Kidman decided to bring out her husband — Keith Urban — for protection.
“He wanted to come and take care of me while I’m on the show,” she said, sitting on his lap.
Fallon appeared thrown, laughing uncomfortably throughout the appearance even as Urban asked how he was doing. “You have no problem ignoring my wife in the kitchen,” the 49-year-old singer teased Fallon.

Nicole Kidman Reminds Jimmy Fallon He Didn’t Ask Her Out … Twice!

TMZ Posted The Photo Of Taylor Swift Allegedly Being Groped
Well, so much for Taylor Swift fighting for her privacy or a judge granting her motion to seal a photo that shows her allegedly being groped. TMZ went ahead and posted the pic.
The gossip hounds have shared the controversial photo, which is central to the legal battle between the pop star and former radio DJ David Mueller.
Mueller originally filed a civil slander lawsuit against Swift in Colorado, claiming that her allegations that he groped her during a meet-and-greet cost him his job. The singer filed a
countersuit , with the photo in question being submitted as evidence.
Though Swift's request to keep the personal image out of the public eye was granted, TMZ took the liberty of posting it online. What's more, the site
claims that "it's hard to see how this pic unduly prejudices anyone."
It seems that TMZ doesn't understand the sensitive nature of this lawsuit. According to Swift, this photo captures the moment she was sexually assaulted.
"Right as the moment came for us to pose for the photo, he took his hand and put it up my dress and grabbed onto my ass cheek and no matter how much I scooted over, it was still there," she said in her videotaped deposition. "It was completely intentional, I've never been so sure of anything in my life."
“I remember being frantic, distressed, feeling violated in a way I had never experienced before,”
Swift told the court. “A meet-and-greet is supposed to be a situation where you’re thanking people for coming. You’re supposed to be welcoming people into your home, which is the arena for that day, and for someone to violate that hospitality in that way, I was completely stunned.”

Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo signs LIFE contract with Nike
Just days after signing a contract extension with Real Madrid, superstar Cristiano Ronaldo now appears to have signed another major contract -- this time with his sponsor Nike. Ronaldo took part in the unveiling of his new signature cleats over the weekend where he described it as the "best contract of my career." He also suggested that his new deal with the sportswear company is "for life."
According to reports, the deal could be worth over $1 billion.
That's right. That's a ton of cash.
Ronaldo has been a member of the swoosh family since 2003 and along with Brazilian star Neymar, he's one of the faces of the company. The report also suggests exactly what Ronaldo stated on the video above -- that the duration of the deal is similar to NBA superstar LeBron James' lifetime pact.
It's been quite a week for CR7. On Monday, he signed a new contract extension with Real Madrid, and per Forbes, he's the highest paid athlete in the world.
Now that he struck new deal with Nike, this might help him solidify his name atop that list.

Jay Z Says He 'Misses The Old Kanye' Following West's Recent Rant
Roc-A-Fella co-founder Kareem “Biggs” Burke revealed as much following Kanye West’s surprising rant against his idol last week. Kanye blasted Jay for not personally visiting him after wife Kim Kardashian got robbed in Paris , for never setting up a playdate with their
kids, and for Tidal politics preventing him from linking up with Drake, an Apple Music artist.
“I was shocked to hear what Kanye said onstage,”
Burke told Page Six at his Reasonable Doubt 20th anniversary pop-up shop on Saturday. “There was never anything rumbling . . . so when you hear these things in public, it’s a little shocking.”
Page Six‘s source previously said Jay Z couldn’t “stand” Kanye because of his crazy personality and that the mogul can only tolerate the rapper in “small doses.” While Burke doesn’t go as far to
confirm the source, he does highlight a change in Kanye’s personality that Jay Z isn’t at all fond of, telling the publication, “I’m not sure about the relationship at this point. I spoke to Jay [after Kanye’s rant] and we’re both just like, ‘We miss the old Kanye.’”
Burke went on to note that both men are too old to be rap beefing and that Kanye may have just been in his feelings at the time anyway. “[Kanye] is usually really honest. So it sounds like something
he’s going through right now,” Burke added. “He may [say] something like that, and then three weeks later he may be back to, ‘That’s my brother.'”
That sounds pretty accurate from what we’ve seen from Kanye in the past. In the meantime, both men can just go ahead, pop in that College Dropout and
think about the good ol’ days.

THE MARVEL VILLAIN MARK RUFFALO AUDITIONED TO PLAY BEFORE HE WAS CAST AS THE HULK
Mark Ruffalo is now known to movie fans far and wide as The Incredible Hulk. However, it was very nearly the second comic book role he played, though he lost out in his bid to play the first. Previously, he auditioned to play Doctor
Doom in The Fantastic Four. No, not in the 2005 version starring his Avengers co-star Chris Evans , but rather the infamous 1994 version which was directed by B-movie legend Roger
Corman .
When Fox scored the right to The Fantastic Four, the deal with Marvel required the studio to make a movie within a particular time period, or else
the rights would revert back to Marvel. By the mid-1990s the studio wasn't really ready to make a Fantastic Four movie yet, but they didn't want to lose the rights, so they hired Roger Corman to direct a Fantastic Four movie on a
shoestring budget. The point wasn't to make money, or even release it, it was all a business decision in order to hold onto the film rights.
A documentary has been released which tells the story of the infamous film and Yahoo reports that it details that a young Mark Ruffalo actually auditioned to play the part of Doctor Doom.
Ruffalo would have been in his mid-20s around the time The Fantastic Four was filming.
Needless to say, he was not the name then that he is now. He only had a handful of credits to his name, and none of them were anything you're likely to have heard of.
The role of Doctor Doom eventually went to Joseph Culp, an actor probably best known for playing Don Draper's father on Mad Men .
Nobody involved in Roger Corman's film really went on to stardom, it's probably a blessing that Mark Ruffalo wasn't cast.
To date, few people have actually seen Roger Corman's version of The Fantastic Four and it is generally agreed by those who have that it's pretty terrible. The only reason to actually watch it would be to see just how bad it is. Although, considering the quality of the actual theatrical releases that the property has seen, there's an
argument to be made that Corman actually made the best Fantastic Four movie so far. It had to have been better that the most recent endeavor .

Box office hits and misses: ‘The Accountant’ files a winning weekend while ‘Max Steel’ rusts
The numbers added up to a big weekend for The Accountant, director Gavin O’Connor’s action thriller featuring Ben Affleck as a math savant who finds himself pursued by killers when one of his clients targets him for assassination.
Although the film earned mediocre reviews from professional critics, general audiences were far kinder to O’Connor’s film and gave it rave reviews
to go along with positive buzz that could help it stick around in theaters. Box-office pundits didn’t predict anything over $18 million for the film, so its
$24.7 million premiere is a welcome surprise for studio Warner Bros. Pictures and the film’s creative team.
The only other new release to rank in the
weekend’s domestic top ten was Kevin Hart’s stand-up comedy film What Now? The $11.9 million it earned was good for second place and narrowly edged out the thriller The Girl on the Train in its second week. The film’s debut also set
a new opening-weekend record for stand-up comedy movies, passing 2000’s The Original Kings of Comedy and its $11 million debut, as well as
Hart’s own 2013 film Let Me Explain , which had a $10 million opening weekend.
1. The Accountant $24.7M $24.7M $27.5M
2. Kevin Hart: What Now? $11.9M $11.9M $11.9M
3. The Girl on the Train $11.9M $46.5M $79.6M
4. Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar
Children $8.9M $65.8M $196.7M
5. Deepwater Horizon $6.3M $49.3M $77M
6. Storks $5.6M $59.1M $130.7M
7. The Magnificent Seven $5.2M $84.8M $148.7M
8.Middle School: The Worst Years of my Life $4.2M $13.7M $13.8M
9. Sully $2.9M $118.3M $175.5M
10. The Birth of a Nation $2.7M $12.2M $12.2M
The rest of the weekend’s top ten films in U.S. theaters were all returning films, but there was some big news in the international box office, too. Ron Howard’s Inferno — the third film based on Dan Brown’s series of novels that began with The Da Vinci Code — raked in more than $50 million overseas ahead of its domestic debut. The film won’t arrive in U.S. theaters for another two weeks, but it’s already well on its way to a good run with its international box-office earnings.
Back in the U.S., however, Open Road Films’ Max Steel movie, based on the popular Mattel toy line, didn’t fare so well with a meager $2.1 million
opening weekend. The sci-fi adventure performed dismally in theaters and didn’t earn a positive response from critics or audiences, so its time on the big screen is likely to be limited.
Olympic Sprinter Tyson Gay's 15- Year-Old Daughter Dies from Crossfire in Shootout: 'She Didn't Make It'
The 15-year-old daughter of American, Olympic sprinter Tyson Gay was fatally shot at a Kentucky restaurant early Sunday morning, according to reports.
Police reportedly responded to the Lexington restaurant on a call of shots fired at around 4.a.m, police said.
Tyson’s daughter, Trinity Gay, was taken to the hospital with a gunshot wound to the neck and later died.
“She didn't make it. I'm so confused. She was just here last week for fall break. It's so crazy. I have no idea what happened,” Tyson told Lex 18 .
Police said that two cars exchanged gunfire and they don’t believe Trinity was an intended target.
Lexington police are still investigating the case and said they are questioning people of interest, according to reports.
Trinity, like her father, was a track star at her Kentucky high school. She was a state runner-up in the 100 meters in middle school. She also was the
Region 6AAA champion in the 200 meters last spring.
Fayette County Public Schools Superintendent Emmanuel Caulk also released a statement regarding Trinity's death.
"Our hearts are broken this morning over the loss of Trinity to this tragic and senseless act of violence,"
said Caulk. Please join us in keeping the Gay family close in thought and prayer and supporting the students, staff, and families at Lafayette High during this unspeakably difficult time."

The truth behind Anthony Martial’s problems under Mourinho for Manchester United
It has been a life-changing last 14 months for Anthony Martial. On his journey from young talent with Monaco to mega-money Manchester United
superstar, the 20-year-old has experienced a number of highlights as well as difficulties the like of which few will ever witness.
This time last year he was United’s great hope, having come off a streak of four goals in his first four games following a transfer from Ligue 1 which may eventually cost the club over 58 million
pounds ($71M). Having seen his price tag grab so much attention, he quickly made his quality apparent as Louis van Gaal’s side began to rely on his ability in front of goal.
It was the kind of form which earned Martial a call- up to the France national team, but his break-out performance against Germany in November was
quickly overshadowed by the Paris terror attacks which had targeted the game itself. For a 19-year- old of any description, this was unchartered territory.
Back in Manchester, things started to change for Martial. Not only did he find his opportunities as a lone striker reduced under Van Gaal, he also found
his private life was of public interest too. When his partner Samantha Jacquelinet mistook the Emirates Stadium for Old Trafford in an Instagram post, it made news across the world. The 20th birthday cake she had made for him depicting Martial at a more accurate Old Trafford also grabbed attention.
His first season at United proved to be mixed, with FA Cup glory offset by failure to reach the Champions League, but his 17 goals in 48 appearances saw him finish top of the club’s scoring charts. It was form which saw him secure a
spot in Didier Deschamps’ Euro 2016 squad, but again there was disappointment as France lost the home final to Portugal.
In all Anthony Martial's main drop in form have been attributed to a lot of things including that his girlfriend and him are no longer together and all other uncorroborated reports but sincerely I hope the lad returns to form.
