IF this story is true, then it reflects on what a douchebag TC is. He's basically saying that Nicole Kidman is the star she is because of her association with Cruise---not her talent. Perhaps he has his head so far up his own a@# that he doesn't recognize that Nicole Kidman is where she is bcs she worked for it---and her best film roles came after the spllit with Cruise. And it also proves what a douchebag KAK is---

I think Kidman is a talent actress, but there is no doubt in my mind that her association with Cruise is one of the reasons why she is as big of a star as she is today. If anything, it certainly helped to have his connections and he did produce one of her biggest box office hits, The Others.

For argument's sake, compare her to her pal, Naomi Watts. Watts is a very talented actress with hits, critical aclaims and Oscar nominations to boot. She certainly paid her dues until her breakout performance in Mulholland Drive, but she isn't a superstar like Kidman. Even the people who haven't gone to a single one of her arthouse movies knows who Kidman is because of her ex. I think one of the reasons Kidman continues to get the magazine covers, etc. is because people are fascinated by her past relationship with MTP. Was it real or all a sham? She'll never tell, but even the smallest mention of him is sure to make the blogs and lead to speculative articles in the celeb mags.
