Keith Urban Awkward Radio Moment Over Nicole Kidman Question
In the past 24 hours, you may have seen some chatter about an awkward moment between Keith Urban and some radio hosts. For context, on Tuesday, Keith appeared on an Australian radio show called Hayley & Max in the Morning, where the hosts, Max Burford and Hayley Pearson, invited him to play a game where they ask their guests a 'very tricky' and 'deeply personal' question. As I'm sure you know, Keith is married to fellow Aussie icon, Nicole Kidman, and so, Max took it upon himself to ask a question about his wife's career in Hollywood. 'When I was coming up with something to ask you, Keith Urban, if you're happy to play this game, the first thing I thought of, with your beautiful wife Nicole Kidman being on so many great movies, TV shows all the time, I watched a movie with her and Zac Efron recently, A Family Affair,' he began. In case you're not familiar, A Family Affair came out last year and starred Nicole as a widowed writer who starts dating her daughter's young, famous boss, played by Zac. Being the supportive husband that he is, Keith politely praised the movie before the host's question took a more intimate turn. Max continued: 'What does Keith Urban think when he sees his beautiful wife with beautiful younger men like Zac Efron having these beautiful love scenes on TV and radio?' But before Keith answered, an awkward pause indicated that the line had gone dead, and he was no longer on the call. 'He's disconnected from Zoom,' a voice can be heard saying in the clip. 'I think his team hung up on us because they didn't want us to ask that question,' they added. 'That's 100% what's just happened,' Hayley said, as she and her co-host enquired as to whether they were previously told by Keith's team 'not to ask' that specific question. 'No,' the other voice said, as the trio expressed their confusion live on air.'He's gone! He doesn't like the personal stuff,' Hayley said. 'Oh, I knew that would happen. We've upset him.' Before long, outlets like Rolling Stone, TMZ, and Variety published stories about the awkward on-air moment. And now, with the narrative circulating that it was Keith who pulled the plug on the interview, a source has spoken out to try to set the record straight. 'Keith did not hang up, period,' an insider told People, clarifying that he is 'very easygoing' and did not personally take issue with the question about Nicole. 'He doesn't host his Zoom interviews. This is a complete nothingburger.' Notably, Nicole has previously said that Keith is totally unbothered by her doing sex scenes in her films and shows. 'My husband is an artist, so he understands all of it, and he also does not get involved,' she told E! News in 2021. 'He sees the show at the very end when it's a show, all edited together, and he's fresh eyes. He doesn't read any script, he really doesn't know what's going on on the set, he's got his own career that he's completely absorbed in.' Well, there you have it! Keith has not personally addressed the debacle, but we'll be sure to let you know if he ever does.

Keith Urban SNAPS & Leaves Interview Over Nicole Kidman's Bold Roles
Keith Urban abruptly exited a live radio interview after being asked about wife Nicole Kidman's intimate scenes with younger co-stars like Zac Efron in her latest film A Family Affair. The moment occurred during Hayley & Max in the Morning on Adelaide's Mix 102.3. Host Max Burford asked how Urban felt watching Nicole in romantic roles, but right after the question, Keith's Zoom connection mysteriously dropped. The show's hosts suspect the interview was cut short because they crossed into personal territory. Neither Urban nor his team has responded. Nicole and Keith, married since 2006 with two children, were recently seen together at the ACM Awards and the FIFA Club World Cup. Nicole has also spoken in the past about nearly quitting acting after becoming a mother. Read More

'Keith doesn't hate us': Adelaide radio hosts reveal what really happened after X-rated Nicole Kidman question cut their interview with Keith Urban short
Adelaide-based radio hosts Hayley Pearson and Max Burford have lifted the lid on their excruitiating Keith Urban interview. The moment unfolded on Tuesday when the 57-year-old Aussie music star appeared on Mix 102.3's Hayley & Max breakfast show via Zoom to promote his upcoming High and Alive world tour, which kicks off July 17 in Denver and includes a stop in Adelaide on August 28. Urban appeared relaxed and cheerful during the chat, even expressing his excitement about returning to perform for his Aussie fans. But the conversation derailed when the duo asked him to participate in the program's recurring segment, Wall of Truth. "When I was coming up with something to ask you, Keith Urban, if you're happy to play this game, the first thing I thought of is your beautiful wife, Nicole Kidman, being in so many great movies and TV shows all the time," Max said. "I watched a movie with her and Zac Efron recently, A Family Affair, and I thought, 'What does Keith Urban think when he sees his beautiful wife with beautiful younger men like Zac Efron, having these beautiful love scenes on TV?'" Following an awkward silence, Max asked: "Oh no, why has this happened? What's just happened here?" "I think he just hung up on us," Hayley responded. Their producer quickly chimed in: "He's disconnected. I think his team hung up on us because they didn't want us to ask that question." However, on Wednesday morning Hayley and Max finally cleared the air with their listeners, revealing that Keith Urban didn't cut the call short after all. To get to the bottom of what really happened, the duo brought in Mix 102.3 FM's content director Stephen Werner, who set the record straight. After praising them for what he called a "great interview" Stephen explained that the call ended simply because they ran out of time with the 'Somebody Like You' singer. "The producers were getting texts, and you guys were having such a great time that you ran out of time," he said. "I don't even know if he (Keith) heard the question." Hayley jumped in: "So are you saying he didn't hang up on us?" "He didn't hang up on you," Stephen confirmed. "He went to another interview." Hayley continued to probe. "Hang on, so are you telling us this has made international news, and it's not even a story because he didn't hang up on us? "Are you saying that Keith doesn't hate us?" "Well, I haven't spoken to him, but I don't think Keith hates anybody, really. He seems like a pretty nice guy," Stephen replied. "So it's just the entire internet that hates us, not Keith," Max said. Urban and Kidman first met at the G'Day USA Gala in January 2005 and tied the knot in June 2006. Now parents to two daughters, Sunday Rose, 16, and Faith Margaret, 14, the couple recently celebrated their 19th wedding anniversary, which Kidman marked with a heartfelt tribute on Instagram. "Happy Anniversary Baby," the Babygirl star wrote alongside a tender black-and-white photo of the pair cuddled up over Urban's guitar.

Keith Urban 'didn't hang up' on racy interview question
Keith Urban has appeared to abruptly end a radio interview after being asked a personal question about his wife Nicole Kidman's intimate career moments, but sources say the singer did not hang up. The Australian country music star was speaking on Mix 102.3 on Tuesday when hosts Max Burford and Hayley Pearson introduced a game called Wall of Truth, and reports claimed after Keith abruptly ended the chat when asked about his wife Nicole Kidman's latest raunchy sex scenes. "Keith did not hang up, period," a source told People. "He doesn't host his Zoom interviews. This is a complete nothing burger." Pearson described the supposedly controversial chat show section that allegedly prompted Urban to hang up as a segment where they ask guests "a very tricky" and "deeply personal" question. Burford began it by asking Urban: "When I was coming up with something to ask you, Keith Urban, if you happen to play this game, the first thing I thought of, with your beautiful wife Nicole Kidman being on so many great movies, TV shows all the time ... I watched a movie with her and Zac Efron recently, A Family Affair." Urban replied politely: "Oh yeah, that's a good one." Burford then asked: "And I thought, 'What does Keith Urban think when he sees his beautiful wife with beautiful younger men like Zac Efron having these beautiful love scenes on TV and radio?'" Shortly after the question, Urban disappeared from the call. Another voice on the show said he'd been "disconnected from Zoom". Burton suggested: "I think his team hung up on us because they didn't want us to ask that question," adding Urban "doesn't like the personal stuff." The source told People that Urban is a "very easygoing" interviewee and was not personally offended by the question. A representative for Urban declined to comment on the incident. Nicole Kidman stars alongside Zac Efron in A Family Affair, released in June 2024. In the film, the actor plays a widowed writer who begins dating Efron's character, a self-absorbed actor employing her daughter as a personal assistant. Kidman told People last year: "It's really helpful when you're doing this sort of work together that you've already got a history together, because it's easy. You're not working to create a history. So I'm not like, 'Can I touch you?' I feel incredibly trusting of Zac." Urban and Kidman married in 2006 and celebrated their 19th wedding anniversary in June.
