Nicole Is Pissing Off Her Neighbors!
By planting trees!
Nicole Kidman recently had cypress leylandii trees planted around her 140-acre home in Australia for privacy. The trees can grow up to 65 feet high and 26 feet wide.
Those are some big ass trees!
Nicole lives in Nashville most of the time with husband Keith Urban, but wanted to heighten the security with the trees as well as a green nylon fence that keeps the property from being seen from the main road.
Nicole's sister Antonia will also be having her wedding on the estate soon and it's likely that Nicole wanted the family matter kept private.
But the neighbors don't find the trees very aesthetically pleasing. Greg Barnsley who lives nearby says:
“They grow to an enormous height. Yes these ones are small now but they are going to be huge. They are out of character with the area, they are not even Australian natives. We respect that Nicole wants her privacy but if she wants trees let them be Australian ones.”
Meh, we say it's her house.
And no one wants to see her mug anyway!

James Cameron Thanks His Fans!
We Hope That's Fake!
Neighbours will complain about anything and everything. They're trees for heavens' sake Why wouldn't she want prying eyes kept away from her private life? Anyone would.
Really? If you live in Australia you can only plant Australian trees? Get a life!
It's her home so her business.
They're probably pissed because now they can't snoop.
The neighbors should argue the point just how vulnerable natural Australia really is. The unique wild life and FAUNA were changed greatly with the introduction of different species. Dogs and cats, rabbits, camels have caused the rapid extinction of many Marsupials, birds, reptiles, Steve Irwin.
Really? They have the nerve to complain over planted trees?? Get a life people.
Re: ViewFromHere –
The only thing that caused Steve Irwin's extinction is Darwinism. The man was a moron and anyone with two functioning brain cells knew that eventually one of those animals he constantly pissed off for the camera would do him in. Just funny that it was a sting ray.
Good for her for planting trees
Who the hell does this ugly chick think she is … ?
Re: Wuffeh – I was just saying he was out of his known element. Merry Christmas!
Re: Wuffeh – How cruel of you to say so about Steve Irwin. He was passionate about nature and his shows brought back love and concern for wild life. When I watch Bindi's show with my daughter I feel sad for that little girl, her dad was her hero. And you and me are just stupid Perezers and we haven't done 1% of what Irwin did for this planet.
That dude seems like an asshole. Its her property her trees. He's not even complaining about damage just that its not "Austrailian?" who gives a fuck? Fuck off. And to the first person who said neighbors will complain about anything and everything its true. Some people just have no damn lives. Honestly I see the fugly shit my neighbors put up around their property and i don't care. its me or mine. people are ridiculous.
Re: Wuffeh –
Maaaaaaaan I never thought it would be a sting ray.
Re: Be-Atch –
Someone with the right to do what she wishes on her own fucking property? That would be my guess…..
Perez brother, if " no one wants to see her mug anyway!" why are you writing about it WITH A PICTURE?
Puhleeeeeeeeesae, "Greg Barnsley" has every paper, paparazzi, and tabloid on speed dial.
He is the ONLY neighbor who EVER calls anyone. Google his name, you'll see him bragging about living next door and inviting them for a BBQ while he is posing in front of some old car. This creep is milking every penny off of a neighbor he has never met, whom he has no guaranteed to never meet.
Kidman has only been there once last year and A NEIGHBOR allowed the papas to take pictures from his roof, the ONLY way to see her yard.
Let's take a guess who that was, shall we?
We should all be thankful she's planting trees instead of destroying them people. Trees give us oxygen and no more complaints about them!
What is the difference as to whether the trees are indigenous or not?
They're bitching about fucking TREES?! Tell them to fuck off and mind their own business. It's not like she's parked a bunch of cars on her front lawn or is leaving trash everywhere.
To her neighbors: if you can't see her, she can't see you. It's a win-win.
Re: jessicatandyismyhero – S0….IF someone decides to open a whorehouse across from you, that is O.K. ? I mean, it is her own property. Sense of entitlement for one who was Tom's beard for several years. Got her the break she needed to get into H'Wood. Lord knows, she was one uglee chick before the (extensive) make-over ….
I remember the frizzy red hair, and flabby arms ….
Re: Be-Atch –
Uhm, are you comparing trees to a whorehouse? Really? This obviously isn't the same situation now is it? Trees are legal to plant not to mention an enviromental thumbs up. Are whorehouses? maybe it some places. I'm sorry I forget sometimes how stupid and idiotic some of the posters on here are. let me clarify. ITS HER PROPERTY AND PLANTING TREES ON HER PROPERTY IS LEGAL AND NOT A HARM IN THIS CASE. NOW FUCK OFF! better? idiot.
If you live next to nicole kidman your have money. Just move, and get it over with.
please nicole
think of all the bulimics that might want to have a look at you so they can barf
since when does she have implants, her breasts look surreal
the neighbors need to stfu…they really don't give a shit, they just want to get their names in the tabloids
Actually were damn laid back down here, LIKE THE DUDE SAID, HE RESPECTS HER PRIVACY BUT ITS ABOUT CONSIDERATION OF SIZE OF TREES & AFFECT ON NEIGHBOURS! not 2 mention, NOT NATIVE TREES, its hard for us to respect a born & breed who donated less to the bush fire appeal, that saw hundreds of her fellow country men dead & lives destroyed than non-native pink did! Aussies r great people who look out 4 each other, if some1 complained chances r she f'in deserved it
Also the problem we have at the moment in Australia with land salinity is caused by the frequent removal of native species and introduction of foreign ones. Without going into the finer details of the consequences, I can say those neighbors have every right to be mad.
So it's not just the looks of the trees that's the issue, Perez, you shallow turd
Eww. Nicole looks dead. she needs a tan, badly! she looks like meg ryan's cremated older sister(if such a person existed). i wonder how much body makeup they put on her when she goes out- i mean really living in socal and australia?! u just don't stay that pale and its natural.
she looks like a vampire that thirsty for blood.
lmao what the fuck "let them be australian ones" fuck off you crazy australians, nicole can plant whatever she wants in her yard.
By the way Kate Ford, get a life you dumb slag! If typing unfounded aspersions on people gets you off you have a pretty pathetic life, I pity you. What a lonely hollow existence you must have. You attack me for welcoming my neighbors? I would welcome any new neighbors. The difference between me and them is I don't tell the paparazzi to f%$k off. If you seek fame and fortune then you must expect the attention that comes with it. I welcome the Kurbans but I dread the thought of how enormous their new trees will grow.
Re: Kate ford – Thank God you didn't move in next door! You are one nasty piece of work. You must really hate yourself to transfer your sad pathetic existence on to someone you don't even know. So how do you welcome new neighbors? By leaving a dead rat on their doorstep? Take my advice, move out of your parents basement, take that bolt out of your nose lip and tongue and get off your fat ass and get a job.
Heaven forbid she import a park like setting with beautiful trees that will enrich the atmosphere with oxygen. Must the area look uniform? What kind of an OCD idea is that? Little boxes, lined up row upon row. This is cliquey, bitchy and controlling, imho. The screen play read: They'd get her, with all her fancy money…
A big stone fence around the property would have worked better and looked more inviting. She can afford it. She is an Austalian and so is her husband so what the hell is the neighbor talking about? So she does'nt live their full time she is still a native of that country.
Geez, people. I was just trying to make the point of what can happen with the introduction of alien species and the lack of resistance among native species. Look at water hyacinths choking Florida's canals. What about Dutch elm disease, Japanese beetles, Nile virus? Australia is huge and it's impossible to keep check on the "Outback" once something starts to spread.
Re: Joseline – Oh this one is priceless! So let me get this straight, if you live somewhere, anywhere, and you've lived there all your life then someone rich buys the place next door you suddnely become rich? How do you manage to find your way out of the house in the morning? Surely someone with an IQ of zero must have difficulty? What a ignorant imbecile you must be to post a comment like this?
Re: Greg the neighbor –
If you are "Greg", then i have to opt and believe the people that said you're a fame whore looking to make a quick buck considering you're defending yourself on this "GOSSIP BLOG." asshole.
Re: AllegraVivace –
If it was a threat to the Austrailian land, I'm pretty damn sure they would not have permitted her to do so. We're not talking about her planting them all over fucking Austrailia or publicly, but her damn property. Dumb…ass
Hum…she looks creepy as hell here!
Re: jessicatandyismyhero – Not too bright are you? Well let me type a little slower so even someone with your limited intelligence will understand…If you feel you can slander me with impunity from behind a computer you are sadly mistaken, I can give as good as I get. Whether it's a gossip blog or in the street if someone attacks me then I'll respond in kind. You must be French? You're probably too stupid to know but they surrender faster than Rosanne on a glazed ham. Take my advice, move out of your parents basement, take that bolt out of your nose lip and tongue and get off your fat ass and get a job.
She could afford to keep them pruned down a bit if size is the issue, and they'd be healthier for it; would they obstruct a vista view or something?
Just how fast do these trees grow, anyway? By the time they reach 65 feet, these people might be in the old folks home or long since gone. *Shrugs.*
Aren't trees suppose to b good for the environment? So who cares if they are American, Mexican, Thai, Indian or British trees. I think it's her house she can do whatever she wants. People will always complain no matter what! You can never satisfy every1!
Re: Greg the neighbor – "Take my advice, move out of your parents basement, take that bolt out of your nose lip and tongue and get off your fat ass and get a job" lol is that your favorite insult?
Re: freethinker – I actually like that one a lot but I occassionally toss in "Knuckle dragging Troglodyte". Do these people honestly think I've got nothing better to do than harrass the Kurbans? Gimme a break! The media calls me once a week to ask if I've seen them to which I reply "no". I said I respect their privacy but I don't like the row of trees they've had planted. The next thing I know my name is plastered around the world as the tree hating moaning neighbor. Unfortunately the masses aren't too bright. The gene pool could really use some chlorine. You have a nice day
(-: Regardless of how I'm portrayed in the media I'm actually a really nice guy.
Sounds like the locals have their head up their Arse. Hate and jealousy on Nicole?!
Re: kugar – Have you been paying attention?? FFS where do you people come from? Where do you get the "hate and jealousy" bit from? Let me spell it out for you morons who have no life, who obviously feel they need to toss in some spiteful comment to provoke hatred and dissention among the world. I am not jealous of ANYONE, I didn't hate anyone either until I logged onto this site but I'm starting to learn to. I like Keith and Nicole, I like my neighbor on the other side, his name is Tom. What I don't like is a mile of trees planted 3 feet apart that will grow to over 40 metres high and form an impenetrable barrier that will block one of the most spectacular views God ever created. By the way, the proctologist called, he found your head!
Greg,

Re: Jane Kidman – Thank you Jane, finally someone with some common sense, hallelujah! How delightful not to be treated as a Pariah. It does begin to wear you down. But this episode does highlight the fact that mob mentality is alive and well. At least this site has given me the opportunity to clear my name. I have a saying I try I live by:Common sense is seeing things as they are…and doing things as they ought to be done. Have a wonderful day and a fantastic New year!
Thanks, Greg
P.S..
"Political Correctness is a doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical
liberal minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media,
which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a
turd by the clean end."
Re: Jane Kidman – By the way, I have never attempted to seek fame through association. I treat people as they treat me. But on the other hand I can give as good as I get. Now can we put this debacle to bed?
I wish she'd stay in nashville!! the commotion when she comes to town is ridiculous, sure she needs trees and the fence for privacy, sure it would be MUCH better if they were native trees. that being said I bet this greg fellow lives in a multimillion dollar mansion (which i highly doubt HIS garden contains only native plants)…. he's probably peeved cause he wont be able to spy on her anymore!… the reason we encourage the plantation of native trees is because seedlings from foriegn plants can be windswept into our native bushland and national parks which can eventually lead to this extinction of native varieties and the animals that rely on that flora… trust me its not illegal or anything I see roses every damn day and they're not native… its just encouraged…. anyway cant believe this made news, i think greg is the only one who gives a damn!
eww she looks wierd here, like a robot or something
Re: kateo – Their house is about 500 metres from mine, the main entrance is 1 km from my place so all I can see from my place is a bit of the roof. Having lived here all my life I knew the previous owners quite well so I know the house well. I have no interest whatsoever in who resides there. I do however love this little village of Sutton Forest and loathe the thought of it being destroyed by trees that are as attractive as Triffids. If you think I'm making a mountain out of a molehill then do yourself a favour and Google Cyprus Leylandii. With any luck you'll see the detrimental damage they do to a view.
It's not her ecosystem.
Re: myjah –
Well they left without even saying goodbye )-: …6.5 million for a place they've spent a whole 3 days at in 2 years. A wise investment indeed.
