All About Nicole Kidman - In 1970, the Kidman family moved to Sydney, Australia. Many believe that Nicole was born Down Under, but this is not so. Which of the following is the place of her birth?
The correct answer is 'Honolulu, Hawaii'
Born on June 20, 1967 in Honolulu, Hawaii, to a father who was a biochemist for the United States Government, and a mother who was a nurse. When Nicole was a few months old, her family moved to Washington, D.C., because her father's research project was complete in Hawaii. In the early part of 1970, the Kidman family pulled up stakes and moved to Longueville, which is a suburb located in Syndey, Australia, the native homeland of her parents. From the time she was able to walk and talk, Nicole had a love for all things artistic, in particular dance and theatre. When she was three years old, she started to take ballet lessons, and at the tender age of six, she made, what she considers, her acting debut in a school nativity play. When she was ten years old, she enrolled in drama school, and her teachers realized that she was a very talented girl, so they urged her parents to enroll her in Melbourne's St. Martin's Youth Theatre and in the Phillip Street Theatre in Sydney. The sweet little girl from Hawaii was on a path destined for stardom!
