You’ve never heard the Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman story like this.
Honest, real and from the heart – their romance, marriage, parenthood, and how Nicole saved him from the decade-long downward spiral of drug and alcohol addiction that almost cost him everything.
Nothing is off limits in this very personal and illuminating interview with one of Australia’s most successful music stars, as Andrew Denton takes Keith from his early days performing in Queensland to his big break in Nashville and blissful marriage to Nicole.
And it’s a marriage that may never have happened. Keith confesses to Andrew why it took him four months to work up the courage to ask Nicole out on their first date.
Join Andrew onstage with Keith at the Shoreline Amphitheatre in California for this heart-warming special edition of Interview.
Two people, two chairs, one conversation, no gimmicks
On Tuesday 23 April, Andrew Denton returns to Seven for a second series of surprising, funny and often moving conversations with a new crop of amazing humans.
Last year’s guest list included household names – Magda Szubanski, Cher, Mick Fanning, Daniel Johns, and Guy Pearce among them. Then there were people whose stories you could scarcely believe, such as Canadian kidnap survivor Amanda Lindhout and Queenslander Rebecca Sharrock, the woman who can remember every day of her life.
“I can’t tell you who’ll be in the blue guest chairs this year,” says host Andrew Denton, “because first, that would spoil the surprise, and second, nobody tells me anything around here. Apparently, I’m just a pretty face.”
“What I can say is that it’s a privilege to sit and talk with extraordinary people at length about what makes them tick. That moment – when everything goes quiet and all the bullshit of television seems to drop away – that’s the moment I’m always hoping for. When it happens, it’s unforgettable.
“I guess that, really, we’re slow food in a fast food environment. That makes us a slightly odd fit in the world of 2019. So, if it makes it easier, just think of us as Marinated at First Sight .”
Heard an advert for Andrew Denton’s Interview podcasts on radio. Apparently he has more of the interviews which were cut from the TV broadcast on the podcasts.
Taking lessons from Channel 10 now?
