Jimmy—who had described the could’ve-been couple’s meeting as more of a networking hang out—was naturally surprised by Nicole’s perspective.
“Wait what?!!” he replied to The Perfect Couple star. “What are you talking about? Did I date Nicole Kidman?”
Based on her recounting of the “date,” it wasn’t exactly love at first sight for Nicole, who ultimately wed Keith in 2006.
“I go over and you’re there in a baseball cap and, like—nothing,” the Oscar winner—who also shares Bella, 31, and Connor, 29, with ex Tom Cruise—joked. “You wouldn’t talk. You didn’t say anything. You were like, ‘Hey, mmm, mmm, mmm!’’ So, I left, and went, ‘OK, no chemistry.’ And then I was like, ‘Maybe he’s gay!’”
And while Jimmy was visibly horrified and shocked to have blown his shot with Nicole, he emphasized that it simply wasn’t meant to be.
“You made a much better decision,” he noted. “Keith Urban is so much cooler than I am.”
Indeed, Nicole has found her happily ever after with Keith. Keep reading for all the sweet moments between the pair.
