Nicole Kidman Kissed Alexander Skarsgard in Front of Keith Urban – and Twitter Can’t Handle It
Nicole Kidman kissed Alexander Skarsgård on the lips when he won an Emmy for his performance in “Big Little Lies” on Sunday night — and her husband, Keith Urban, joined in the applause.
While the public sign of affection for her costar didn’t seem to faze the country singer, the Twitterverse had a far more extreme reaction.
“Nicole Kidman kissed Alexander Skarsgard on the lips right in front of her husband … The ultimate power move,” tweeted one user.

To be clear I would also kiss Nicole Kidman and/or Alexander Skarsgard in front of my husband. No question.
