NEW YORK — Nicole Kidman was recently a guest on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon and revealed something to him which embarrassed to the point he crawled underneath his desk to hide.
The show was the first time the two had crossed paths since the first time they meet years ago, and both recalled their accounts of the encounter. Fallon said he had received a phone call from a mutual friend telling him he was planning to bring Kidman to Fallon’s apartment to meet him. Fallon recalled trying to find various items to make the visit better, but wasn’t very successful and was nervous about Kidman seeing his apartment.
It was at this point that Kidman reveals to Fallon that she “liked” him and was single at the time so she was anticipating the meet. Fallon was taken aback by this, in shock that Kidman had confessed past feelings for him. She went on to describe her point of view during the encounter, saying Fallon didn’t really speak to her and kept his head down. Then she said after he put some kind of video game on, she decided the two didn’t have any chemistry, and thought to herself that he was perhaps gay.
After she said that, he crawled under his desk and hid, obviously embarrassed by what she was saying. He later said he was in complete shock after the realization that he had technically “dated Nicole Kidman.” Then told her she made the right choice by passing on him.
Both Fallon and Kidman are now separately married with children.
