But, for years, her professional success was offset by her mother's battle with breast cancer and a shattering divorce from Tom Cruise, with whom she had adopted two children.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe divorce turned her world upside down. She eventually landed on her feet, but the years in between were chaotic and marked by poor relationship and career choices.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBorn in Hawaii and raised in Australia, Nicole was an awkward child who did not blossom until her teen years. Supported by activist parents (her father is a well-known psychologist in Australia) she quickly became an award-winning ing nue in Australia. Her role in the acclaimed thriller \u003cem\u003eDead Calm\u003c\/em\u003e grabbed the attention of moviegoers as well as that of Tom Cruise, who asked her to audition for his upcoming film, \u003cem\u003eDays of Thunder\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBy the 1990s, Tom and Nicole had married and Nicole was appearing in one movie after another. Her breakthrough role came in 1995 with \u003cem\u003eTo Die For\u003c\/em\u003e, in which she played the role of a television weathergirl who kills her husband. Several releases later she co-starred with Tom in the sexual psychodrama, \u003cem\u003eEyes Wide Shut, \u003c\/em\u003edirected by the legendary film director Stanley Kubrick. The film generated a firestorm of publicity, primarily because of its graphic sexual content. With shocking insight, this book takes you behind the scenes while the movie was being made.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor two of her recent films, \u003cem\u003ePaperboy\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eFur\u003c\/em\u003e, Nicole returned to two of her favorite themes--infidelity and sexual exhibitionism. Both films brought comparisons to two cutting-edge relationship stories, \u003cem\u003eTo Die For\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eEyes Wide Shut\u003c\/em\u003e. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter a string of disastrous relationships, including romances with rapper Q-Tip and musician Lenny Kravitz-she fell in love with country star Keith Urban and they married in 2006 after a courtship of about a year. She had a child with Keith and then had a second daughter with the help of a surrogate mother.
