Why Rumors About Keith Urban & His Mother-In-Law Might Be True
As an actress Kidman knows a thing or two about showmanship, but that's not why Urban turns to his family for an honest opinion. He trusts her not because she watches as someone in entertainment, but rather she watches just like any other viewer.
"They watch like everybody else does and either respond to someone or they don't," noted the Somewhere In My Car singer. "And I'm interested in that because we can get sort of myopic with it sometimes, being in the middle of it all."
Urban values the opinion of his family. "It's great to get just a totally fresh perspective," he added. "I often ask Nic what she thinks of various people and who she likes and why."
"Particularly why," he emphasized. "That's always interested me."
American Idol will return on Fox for its 14th season Jan. 7, 2015.
