Did Nicole Kidman Get Aussie Sailors The Gold?

Posted by Trix at 6:30 AM on August 21, 2008

 

Some are saying that a well timed call from Nicole Kidman pushed the Australian men to win a gold medal in 470 class sailing. I say it probably had a lot to do with the skill and determination of the men manning the boat. What do you think?

The Australian duo says they name their boats after Nicole's movies but, they believe they won their gold by skill, training
and good conditions — but they were very happy to hear from her none the less.

"I
was getting breakfast and thought, 'Ah, I just don't want to talk to
her today,' so I bumped it, then two seconds later there was a message
from Nicole wishing us good luck," the Aussie athlete said.
But, like a sane person, he called her back before the race. "Yes, I ended up returning her call," Page said. "She was very happy."

We love Nicole, but she doesn’t have telekinetic ability. The credit’s all theirs. Well done guys!
