said in an interview that now that Trump has won, “We, as a country, need to support whoever is the president. That is what the country is based on. And however that happened, it happened, and let’s go.”
Kidman got some online backlash for that remark, and in speaking to
Access Hollywood yesterday, she clarified her meaning:
“I was trying to stress that I believe in democracy and the American Constitution. It was that simple… I’m out of it now. That’s what I said and it’s that simple.”
Kidman’s comments earlier this week received support from
some conservative commentators, while some other Hollywood celebrities have also offered
different takes on the Trump phenomenon.
