What Was Nicole Thinking During Her Clap?
When Nicole Kidman’s Oscars clap went viral last year, it sparked a frenzy of memes and jokes. But Nicole later revealed the real reason behind her awkward clapping style. She wasn’t just trying to look cool—she was actually protecting some borrowed bling. “It was really awkward. I was like, ‘I wanna clap, I don’t wanna not be clapping’—that’d be worse, right? Like ‘Why isn’t Nicole clapping?’ So, therefore, I’m clapping but it was really difficult because I had a huge ring on that was not mine—but it was absolutely gorgeous—and I was terrified of damaging it,” Nicole confessed in a radio interview with Australian duo Kyle and Jackie O.
Months later, Nicole revisited the topic during an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. She hilariously explained, “I don’t clap like that. I do not clap like that—it’s a weird lens! It’s the Cinderella thing—you borrow these expensive jewels and I’m like, ‘I must not damage these diamonds cause I have to give them back at midnight!’ And they went back beautifully intact—not a scratch on them.”
