Nicole Kidman, 57, shows off her stunning figure in racy 'brat' singlet at Charli XCX concert in New York
Nicole Kidman has embraced her inner 'brat' as she showed off a bold new look at a Charli XCX concert in Brooklyn, New York.
The Australian A-list actress, 57, took to Instagram Stories on Sunday to share a stunning photo of herself at the English singer's concert.
Kidman donned a punk-inspired ensemble complete with a figure-hugging lack black tank top tucked into baggy jeans, a black jacket and sunglasses.
The Babygirl star pulled her signature strawberry blonde locks into a high ponytail and posed with her hands on her hips.
"Great night NYC," she wrote over the photo taken before a Charli XCX-branded lime green wall with the word 'brat' in bold black letters.
After the Von dutch hitmaker released her high-energy dance-pop album Brat in 2024, the term has dominated popular culture around the world.
Collins Dictionary announced brat as its 2024 word of the year and defined it as 'a confident, independent, and hedonistic attitude.'
The album inspired TikTok dances, marketing campaigns, and fashion trends which led Gen Z and millennials to coin the term 'brat summer'.
Kidman embraced the now-iconic album cover turned whole aesthetic as she danced to Charli XCX's hit Apple in the crowd of concert revellers.
Footage of the world-famous star shared by Pop Crave on X showed Kidman laughing along as she moved to the song's TikTok-inspired dance.
Bemused fans flooded the comments to dub Kidman and Charli XCX as the unexpected crossover no one saw coming.
"Nicole at a Charli XCX concert? That's the kind of crossover I didn't know I needed," one person said.
"OMG! Nicole Kidman at a Charli XCX concert? That's iconic! I can only imagine the vibes were immaculate. Wish I could have been there to witness that!" a third person said.
"Always beautiful," one more person said.
It comes as Kidman attended the 2025 annual Met Gala at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in Manhatten, New York on Tuesday.
The Holland star turned heads in a recreation of a black sculptural 1951 gown by the luxury Spanish fashion house Balenciaga.
Her hair was chopped into a striking blonde mullet, which Kidman brushed back as she posed for photos on the red carpet.
This year's Met theme, 'Superfine: Tailoring Black Style', saw celebrities craft looks inspired by author Monica L. Miller's 2009 novel Slaves to Fashion: Black Dandyism and the Styling of Black Diasporic Identity.

Robert Irwin on Prince William: 'An environmental hero'
Robert Irwin says he loved getting the chance to work with Prince William and share their mutual passion for conservation. The 21-year-old Australian recently teamed up with the heir to the British throne after he was was named a Global Ambassador for the Prince of Wales' Earthshot Prize. "I think Prince William has been such an amazing person to work with, and there is such an incredible synergy between what he does and who he is and who we are," he told UsWeekly. "It's all about conservation." ""I think it's wonderful that someone so influential - that has such a fantastic platform - is using that to really better our environment," he said. "He is a true environmental hero, and so working with him has been a great privilege." Irwin insists that everyone needs to "prioritise" the environment, saying William is "at the forefront" of that movement. "We've definitely compared a lot of notes in the conservation space," he said. "We need to prioritise taking care of our natural world. And he's really at the forefront of that. "And plus, he's just a great guy. When you have a conversation with him, he's the most lovely, intelligent person to talk to and is just so easygoing, so much fun. "And I love working with him. He's a really, really, really good guy." Robert Irwin says he loved getting the chance to work with Prince William and share their mutual passion for conservation.

Ed Sheeran: Global English pop star teases return to Australia for ‘Start of 2026' in casual TikTok comment
English singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran has casually confirmed that his much-anticipated return to Australia will take place in early 2026, three years on from his last run of stadium shows. In May, the globetrotting 34-year-old launched The Mathematics Tour in Europe, and has been leaving traces of his travel antics on TikTok as fans beg for the star to appear in their location. Dropping his most recent adventures in Madrid to the platform, the Lego House hitmaker responded to one particular comment regarding his plans to return Down Under. 'How does coming back to Australia soon sound to you?' the fan asked. Nonchalantly, Sheeran responded, 'Start of 2026'. PerthNow reached out to the star's management, who preferred not to double-down on the announcement but hinted at potential news later in the year. 'We aren't in the habit of pre-announcing announcements — but there will be news on our plans for 26 later this summer,' a representative for Sheeran said. Remarkably, the four-time Grammy winner's most recent Australian campaign in 2023 featured an earlier version of The Mathematics Tour — which launched globally in Dublin in April 2022. The former busker's singular Perth gig at Optus Stadium became the highest ticketed event in WA's history, with more than 70,000 fans flooding the precinct to hear his signature sound. Written as '+–=÷×', the same name was given to a compilation album Sheeran released in September 2024, and follows a theme of mathematical numbers and figures from previous works. On social media, the star has been met with encouragement from Aussies as they anticipate his next venture to their country. Pleas of 'Can't wait to see you in Australia' and 'We miss you' are a common theme. Sheeran's next album — titled Play — is set for release on September 12, which would likely usher in a new tour campaign and chapter in the star's 15-year professional career. Releasing tracks Azizam and Old Phone in recent months, the project marks the father of two's eighth studio album. With iconic songs Shape of You, Perfect, and Photograph all boasting in excess of two billion streams respectively on Spotify, Sheeran is the platform's third-most followed global artist with 90 million monthly listeners. The singer has collaborated with the likes of Adele, Justin Bieber, Taylor Swift and Beyonce, punctuating his status as a pioneer of the pop genre.
