Nicole Kidman has once again taken the spotlight with another bold hair makeover—just days after making waves at the Met Gala. The 57-year-old actress turned heads at the ACM Awards in Frisco, Texas, revealing a sleek new hairstyle as she stood proudly beside husband Keith Urban.
New Look, Same Glamour
After debuting an edgy cropped cut at the Met Gala, Kidman surprised fans with another transformation. At the ACM Awards, she wore her signature strawberry blonde hair straight and flowing past her shoulders. Her fresh hairstyle was polished and understated, yet effortlessly chic.
Her appearance was nothing short of stylish. She stepped onto the red carpet in an all-black ensemble that featured a sleeveless leather top with a high neckline. Layered black skirts, tailored trousers, and pointed heels completed her fashion-forward look.

Supporting Keith Urban’s Big Night
Nicole wasn’t just making a statement—she was there to support her husband, Keith Urban. The country music icon was honored with the prestigious Triple Crown Award, recognizing his wins for New Artist, Artist, and Entertainer of the Year.
Speaking about his journey, Keith shared, “I came halfway around the world to live in Nashville. It was my dream since I was seven. All I wanted was to write songs, get them recorded, and have people listen. That dream has never changed.”
The couple, married since 2006, shares two daughters—Sunday, 16, and Faith, 13—and they looked every bit the power pair as they walked the red carpet.
Met Gala Debut: A Bold and Edgy Cut
Earlier that week, Nicole shocked fans at the Met Gala with a daring hairstyle that marked a dramatic departure from her usual look. Her long blonde hair was chopped into a sleek short cut with a dark brunette base peeking through the layers.
Dressed in custom Balenciaga Couture, she embodied the night’s theme, Superfine: Tailoring Black Style, inspired by Monica L. Miller’s book Slaves to Fashion.
Celebrity hairstylist Adir Abergel took credit for her Met Gala hair transformation. On Instagram, he explained, “The inspiration was a tailored short cut that brought out the essence of Dandyism on Nicole Kidman. I wanted to celebrate the dandies—their elegance, individuality, and confidence.”
A Personal Touch to Couture
Nicole revealed more about her style philosophy in an interview with Vogue. She shared her love for tailoring and individuality in fashion, especially when paying tribute to dandyism.
“I just wanted something tailor-made for me,” she said. “This was inspired by all those gorgeous dandies and the women who supported them.”
She added, “Tonight’s about celebrating couture and the people behind the scenes who make fashion unique. Dandyism is all about the black suit—adding a distinct button or personal touch. That’s what makes it special.”
Fashion and Family
Nicole’s bold style choices even caught the attention of her daughter, Bella—whom she shares with ex-husband Tom Cruise. Bella liked Abergel’s Instagram post, signaling her approval of her mom’s new look.
With each red carpet appearance, Nicole Kidman proves she’s not just a Hollywood legend but also a fearless fashion icon. Her evolving hairstyles and tailored elegance are making headlines—and fans can’t get enough.
