nkidman.jpg Nicole kidman was hospitalized for a short period of time at an L.A. hospital Thursday after a stunt car crashed into a light pole on the set of her new movie “The Invasion“.

She didn’t suffer any serious injuries and was scheduled to return to the set later that day.

“There was an accident involving a rigged camera vehicle on the set of The Invasion Wednesday night in Los Angeles,” Warner Bros. said in a statement Thursday. “Nicole Kidman was in the vehicle at the time of the accident and was taken to the hospital for evaluation. She was released shortly thereafter.”

A total of eight people were brought to the hospital after the accident, although no other actors were involved. Two crew members suffered minor injuries.

“The production took the appropriate steps following the incident to ensure the safety of the cast and crew,” the studio said in the statement.

The accident occurred shortly before 12:25 a.m. in downtown Los Angeles. An ambulance was sent to the scene, but not needed.

“There were no life-threatening injuries,” the Los Angeles Fire Department said in a statement. “They conducted a medical exam but the persons involved sought their own medical attention.”

Kidman’s husband, Keith Urban, was on set at the time, photos show. Earlier in the day, Kidman’s children Isabella, 14, and Conner, 11, were on the set, but had left before the accident.

Keith Urban out of Rehab

keith-urbanNicole Kidman and her husband Keith Urban made their first public appearance together since the Country Music star began rehabilitation for drug dependency.

A beaming Urban was dressed casually in jeans and a loose blue stripped shirt while holding hands with Kidman at a private screening of a movie in Sydney on Wednesday. Urban didn’t speak with the media as they exited and left in a black luxury car.

Urban, the Country Music Associations best male vocalist of 2006, checked himself into the Betty Ford Clinic for alcohol abuse last October. He’s acknowledged that he’s struggled with cocaine and alcohol addictions in the past.

This was the first time that the pair had been seen together in Australia since the couples wedding at Beachside manly this past June.

Good luck to ya Keith.

Playboy boss wants Nicole Kidman for his magazine cover

Hugh Hefner has been bewitched by Nicole Kidman ever since he saw her appear nude on Broadway in 1999.

He’s said “Kidman’s bewitching, and the vision of her with a cigarette in one hand and her knickers in the other as a delicious French au pair will haunt my fantasies for months. I better add, she’s a terrific actress.”

He’s now desperate for her to pose for the cover of his Men’s magazine, Playboy. Good Luck Hugh.
