The world's most famous self-hating ginger is looking like quite the wax figure here and apparently telling tales about her role as wifey.
More importantly, why does Vanity Fair hate women? I'm not a fan of Kidman's, but she did win an Oscar, so do you have to demean her by making her open up her blouse? Ugh.
Hat tip, Michael K

God lord good photo shop. You're quite right, what's with boobage? When are we going to see some naked dude on the cover with the title, 'Naked truth' under it? WELL VANITY?!
Right, FMC, like she has to be naked to tell her story? I doubt they'd ask Tom Cruise to pull his dick out for an interview.
And how the hell did she get rid of all those freckles? Bleach? Acid?
I"m thinking some sort of whitening agent, like Indian women use, but it could just be photo shopping.
I tried to find one of those early pictures of her before she had them removed for a comparison. I guess Xenu had them destroyed for her because I couldn't find one (or wasn't willing to spend the time to find one). It's freaky how little she resembles herself from when she left Australia.
Must have taken seconds for some executive to come with that idea....
I wonder how they forced Nicole to open up that shirt. Would you say it was at gunpoint?
Manuel, every woman on their cover seems to be in some state of undress. Vanity Fair hates women.
Bock, point taken, but their cover gives a huge boost to anyone's career, and they tell them how to pose. The men are always in smart suits and the women have to peddle their flesh.
I doubt they'd ask Tom Cruise to pull his dick out for an interview. Brilliant!
not to mention why get rid of freckles - they're wonderful. I watched an Italian film this weekend called The Family Friend (because I had loved The Consequences of Love) and was shocked at how the women were protrayed in it - totally unrealistic and were there only to please the men. Horrible stuff.
I'd say they used a secret scientological code word - then her freckles disappeared and she displayed the boobage. Sort of like Stepford Wives (Mk 2).
But what's with the hat / hello sailor subtext? Is the hat the same as one worn by the petite Tom in some fillum? Is the cleavage display meant to be a 'no boob job' declaration?
Whatever the motivations, remember no cover picture of Kidman (from an officially organised shoot) appears without her prior approval.
I don't understand. She was married to Tom Cruise. Perhaps there's some kind of explanation in that.
I'm with you on the stripper shows for the ladies. If the men were half-naked too, at least it would be balanced.
Thanks, Primal. Not that I'm interested in his appendage. He's repulsive.
Conor, she was much prettier as a ginger. Now she looks waxy and botoxed to the max. There's a lot of that sort of male fantasy in film. Oh, say, all of it?
She gets to approve it but she also knows she has to play the game and flaunt her body. the industry has unequal standards for men and women. I think she has had a boob job, they're just not big implants. Nothing on her is real anymore, Conan.
The men will always get to keep their clothes on, Sassy. Women are the sex class in the patriarchy.
She looks so completely unlike any previous photos I just assume the picture's been retouched and engineered ad nauseum to remove anything remotely real such as wrinkles, freckles, lumps, bumps, squinty eyes, whatever. In fact I assume that of just about any celeb picture these days. They could probably take a 90-year-old bag lady and make her look like Madonna.
Maybe not Madonna, Nick. She's too muscular and fit. But yes, the photo shop everyone 100x over.
