Unlike other celebrity parents with new babies, Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban have chosen not to sell pictures of their new daughter, Sunday Rose. In fact, they would prefer that the paparazzi not photograph her at all, and are asking for a little space while they spend time in Kidman's native Sydney. The couple used decoy cars and kept Sunday under wraps when they arrived in Australia recently.
"She's like a doll," Kidman told a Sydney radio station, "She's like a little, little thing. Just (don't photograph) right in her face or in our faces, because it's scary for her."
I remember when my girls were born that flash photography made them flinch, and I was constantly telling my husband to STOP TAKING PICTURES. (Thank goodness he didn't listen, or I wouldn't have any photo memories of those early days). I can't imagine what it would feel like if strangers were constantly jumping into our faces to snap photos and making my baby cry. New motherhood gives you that mama bear feeling, and Nicole is obviously very protective. Hopefully, the paps will give them the space they're looking for. I'm sure Sunday Rose is a gorgeous baby, but really, is it that important that we all get a glimpse of her?

Amy said...What she said was that the baby is real, she is NOT a doll, she is a tiny, tiny thing and that people seem to always forget that. Sadly the copy and paste journalists have misquoted her yet again.
I don't think they meant that she should not be photographed, they are asking that the paprazzi should not come so close as to flash in her face or theirs because it is scary for her. Her interview is online on: http://www.2dayfm.com.au/shows/kyleandjackieo/highlights/nicole-and-keith
Good for her and her husband.

alikatt said...Good for you, Nicole. I know I wouldn't have wanted a stranger up in my babies face taking pictures. Mine is now 9 months and still doesn't like the flash. She and Keith are celebs and yes, it's a part of their job to be photographed. It is NOT however part of baby Sundays job description.
