Nicole Kidman Cursed By Aborigines

While promoting her new film 'Australia' on German television, Nicole Kidman broke an Aboriginal taboo against women playing the didgeridoo. Kidman played a weak note on the tradition Australian instrument while appearing on the show "Wetten, Dass..?" with fellow star Hugh Jackman, and the Aboriginal community is not taking it lightly.

"People are going to see Nicole playing it and think it's all right," Aboriginal language teacher Richard Green told the Sydney Morning Herald.

Australian Hollywood star Nicole Kidman will have no more children after breaking a taboo against women playing the didgeridoo, an Aboriginal cultural leader has warned. Kidman, who gave birth to her first child in July at the age of 41 after long making clear her yearning for a baby, blew into the traditional instrument while promoting her latest movie on a German television

Alan Madden of Sydney's Metropolitan Local Aboriginal Land Council told the newspaper, "I presume she doesn't know, otherwise she wouldn't be playing it.... Baz should know something about it, after working with those traditional fellas on the film."
Kidman has been candid about the possibility of setting acting aside to have more children. Last month, she told a news conference, "In terms of my future as an actor and stuff, I don't know. I'm in a place in my life where I've... had some great opportunities. And I may just choose to have some more children."

"I have to say I'm not that interested in making films any more," Kidman tells Telegraph UK. "I know I'm not meant to say that, but that's where it is for me now. I'm 41 years old and very happy being in Tennessee with my baby and with my husband. I obviously have creative blood in me and it needs to come out in some way but I just don't have that burning desire any more."

Kidman adds, "I'm not saying I'm never going to work again, but I'm at peace with whatever happens, which is a nice place to be at this stage of my life."
Kidman gave birth to her first natural child, Sunday Rose, at 41. According to Aboriginal wisdom, her didgeridoo gaffe guarantees she won't have any more. Richard Green claims, "It bastardises our culture. I will guarantee she has no more children. It is not meant to be played by women as it will make them barren."

No Governor McGraw Any Time Soon

Sorry, Democrats with a penchant for country music -- Tim McGraw isn't running for governor of Tennessee ... in 2010, at least.
A rep for the country star tells PEOPLE that "there's no truth" to a recent report in The New Republic claiming McGraw was planning a 2010 run at the Tennessee governorship. McGraw's rep says the report is false, but keeps the door open for some future ventures.

Alec Baldwin tells '60 Minutes "there's other things I want to do. I mean, in a matter of weeks, I'm going to be 50. There's no age limit on running for office, to a degree. (It is) something I might do one day." What other celebrities have crossed the line from show business to politics?

"It's something he is interested in, but not for 2010. Later in life," the rep said.
McGraw, a Democrat who backed Barack Obama during the election, recently told PEOPLE that a leap into politics was likely in his future thanks to his upbringing.
"I grew up in Louisiana and politics is kind of a contact sport and you grow up knowing about it," he said, claiming he's "always been fascinated by what can be done in the public arena."
In the same interview, McFraw said "if the time comes where there's something available and I think I can do some positive things, I'll be glad to do it. I wouldn't want to do it just to say I did it."
So what's holding him back? "I think I gotta get a lot smarter between now and then," he joked.
