Skeptics, You've Been Duped Again!

The skeptics have fallen for photos allegedly showing white powder all over Nicole Kidman's face at the NY premiere of Nine. Website Just Jared was dumb enough to post two sets of pictures accidentally proving their "Makeup Malfunction" story was a dud.

Reader watwat put it best

"I can’t believe how incredibly stupid people are. The photographer Jim Spellman who took every single one of these photos has now made a lot of money with the brainless media running it like prized photos. Look at Getty images and you’ll find none of the other photographers photos of Nicole show any kind of white powder. All this bull about the make up artist touching up Nicole’s face to explain away why some photos shows the powder and others don’t , is also a load of rubbish. I was watching the live stream and at no point is Nicole’s face tampered with while she was on the red carpet."



So true watwat! For those that would like more proof, Kidman was one of the very first stars interviewed, along with Fergie, for the live stream. At no time did she have powder smeared on her face.

*****************UPDATE*********************

The reason for the white look in some photos and not others is that Kidman's makeup contained talc which is not flash-friendly. It shows up white when a flash is used and is invisible to the eye otherwise. It was applied on the nose and under the eye area to prevent shine. Mystery solved.

Thanks to RiceBunny for the explanation!

Thanks skeptics for the laughs! It must be so hard being you! BAHAHAHA!


nomorefan: I would think since this powder had a reflection from the lense, it is the pearl powder that is put on her entire body to give that porcelain look. Applied heavier around the eyes to get rid of dark circles and makes the eyes look more radiant.


WRONG! BAHAHAHA!


dumbfounded: Hey Nine Lip, you make it too easy on us. What? Did you swipe MJ's makeup now that he's gone? Shame on you.

nomorefan: So if I smear some powder on my face real thick, I too can have flawless skin?

neverland47: That is too funny. That's what happens when you try to make yourself into a porcelain kabuki.

Oh " so" Leery: She may have misplaced the baby but she knows where the baby powder is. It almost looks like someone is saying your an arse!!!!! ((giggles)))

maclen: Actually I think since the Danish girl perhaps HAS fallen through, and after her extreme anorexic workouts for that role she was ravenous...and stopped off at a nearby ihop for a stack of pancakes...and just couldnt wait for them and ran into the kitchen to...well, I was gonna say "make them herself"...but who would believe that...so she ran into the kitchen to demand instant pancakes...and got the mix all over her face!
