Nicole Kidman Was NOT ‘Blacklisted’ From Hollywood For Vowing To Support President

Nicole Kidman had contracts cancelled by Hollywood studios and was warned to "steer clear of the Oscars," after she vowed to support Trump.

Correction: An earlier version of this story incorrectly stated that Nicole Kidman had been blacklisted by Hollywood for suggesting that Americans should support then-President-elect Donald Trump in 2017. There is no evidence that Ms. Kidman had contracts cancelled by Hollywood studios. Also, her comments were not intended to be an endorsement of President Trump himself.

In a Jan. 10, 2017, interview with the BBC, Kidman was asked what she thinks of Trump.

“I’m always reticent to start sort of commenting politically, I’ve never done it in terms of America or Australia, I’m issue-based,” she said. “He’s now elected and we as a country need to support whosever the president because that’s what the country’s based on. And however that happened, he’s there and let’s go,” she added.

In light of this, we have retracted the original claims made in the article.
