NICOLE KIDMAN - KIDMAN 'GOBSMACKED' BY WEDDING ATTENTION

Oscar-winning actress NICOLE KIDMAN is still amazed by the huge amount of media interest her marriage to KEITH URBAN generated around the world. THE HOURS star, 39, sparked a media frenzy when she jetted into her native Sydney, Australia, with Urban, 38, last week (19JUN06) and announced they planned to wed. Kidman and Urban were married on Sunday (25JUN06) in a candle-lit ceremony overlooking Sydney's Manly beach, and Kidman was stunned to find thousands of people lining the streets as she travelled to her nuptials in a cream Rolls-Royce. Publicist WENDY DAY says, "She wasn't just touched, she was gobsmacked, she was overwhelmed. She couldn't believe the amount of support and warmth and ... Australian-ness that was there for her." Kidman and Urban are currently enjoying their honeymoon in Tahiti.
