Shortly after the 21-year-old pop star posted a TikTok acting out the Oscar-winning actress’ viral ad — which has been playing before every showing at the movie chain’s locations since 2021 — the Moulin Rouge star herself tipped her cap to Rodrigo on Instagram Stories Wednesday (March 27).
“You just won me some major points with my girls!” Kidman wrote “Adore you @oliviarodrigo xx.”
The actress and Keith Urban, who wed in 2006, are parents to two teenage girls: 15-year-old Sunday and 13-year-old Faith. Kidman also shares 31-year-old Bella and 29-year-old Connor with ex-husband Tom Cruise.
In the pop star’s video, Rodrigo mouthed along to Kidman dramatically describing the power of cinema in her AMC campaign, a clip that has garnered many memes and re-enactments over the past two years. “We come to this place … for magic,” lip-synched the “Drivers License” musician as she showed viewers around Centre Bell Arena in Quebec ahead of her Montreal Guts Tour stop.
“We come to AMC Theaters to laugh, to cry, to care,” she continued, testing out different seats in the venue and snacking on an enormous bag of popcorn. “That indescribable feeling we get when the lights begin to dim. We go somewhere we’ve never been before — not just entertained, but somehow reborn. Together.”
Rodrigo will next take her trek to Toronto before circling through Boston and New York City, after which she’ll kick off the European leg of the Guts Tour. Last week, she dropped the new deluxe edition of her sophomore album, Guts, featuring five previously unreleased tracks: “Obsessed,” “Girl I’ve Always Been,” “Scared of My Guitar,” “Stranger” and “So American.”
