Nicole Kidman Peed on Zac Efron
NICOLE KIDMAN PEED ON ZAC EFRON
Quote:
It’s funny that after the success of Precious, people seem to think of director Lee Daniels as Oprah’s innocuous little buddy, because the guy’s pretty twisted. Like, having-AIDs-and-two-retarded-babies-from-your-dad twisted. The first movie he directed, Shadowboxer, has a scene where Cuba Gooding Jr. is having fairly graphic sex with Helen Mirren, which is intercut with another scene of Gooding murdering a guy. Which is a little bit of background to bring us to today, when Daniels’ new movie, The Paperboy, premiered in Cannes. Apparently, this one has a scene that involves Nicole Kidman peeing on Zac Efron. Nice, that was always my favorite Nicholas Sparks novel.
The movie casts Kidman as a small-town vamp whose tacky sensuality proves mesmerising to the fresh-faced youth played by Efron.
When Efron’s character Jack is caught in a bank of jellyfish, Kidman shoves aside a gang of girls about to urinate on his stings — as received wisdom would dictate — and proceeds to do it herself.
“I’m not here to please everybody — I’m here to tell truth,” Daniels said when quizzed about the sequence, suggesting the buzz of amused disbelief it caused on the Internet was because people “have a fetish about it”.
“Jellyfish cure is by urinating on the skin, that is just the way Pete Dexter wrote the book, I executed the vision,” Daniels told AFP after a press screening of the film, which he based on a novel of the same name.
“He is frustrated because he can’t get his girlfriend, he wants this woman, he goes out to swim because he’s furious, he’s swimming off his frustration… and half way through he is attacked by jellyfish.”
Matthew McConaughey, who plays Jack’s crusading reporter brother Ward in the movie, chipped in a word, saying: “That is, practically, what you are supposed to do for a jellyfish sting!”

I kind of doubt that.
Hopefully, Hemingway & Gellhorn will bring her critical success!
