Nicole Kidman Jokes About Trading Places With A$AP Rocky: ‘I’d Get to Kiss Your Wife’

MusicNicole Kidman Jokes About Trading Places With A$AP Rocky: ‘I’d Get to Kiss Your Wife’

Nicole Kidman and A$AP Rocky turned a fashion-show chat into a tiny pop-culture crossover event, with Rihanna somehow becoming the punchline and the prize.

During a joint appearance at Chanel’s Cruise runway show in Biarritz, France, Kidman and Rocky were asked what they would do if they could swap lives. In a video for Vogue shared on April 28, the Scarpetta star did not waste time overthinking it.

“I’d get to kiss your wife,” Kidman told Rocky, referring to Rihanna.

Rocky, born Rakim Athelaston Mayers, took the line exactly as lightly as it was intended. “You got it,” he laughed, adding, “nothing tops that.” Correct answer, frankly.

Rocky kept his answer in the closet

Rather than try to compete in the romance category, Rocky pivoted to fashion, which was probably the safer lane at a Chanel event.

“I would definitely steal whatever is in her closet,” he said of Kidman, “because I know she got some s--t.”

The fashion link is not exactly a reach. Rocky has long been one of hip-hop’s most visible style figures, while Kidman’s red-carpet history is its own archive. Rihanna, meanwhile, has built a fashion and beauty empire alongside her music career, including Fenty Beauty.

Rihanna and Rocky’s shared interests go beyond style

Rocky and Rihanna share three children: RZA, 3, Riot, 2, and Rocki, 7 months. In an interview with W Magazine published on April 21, Rocky spoke about the overlap in their tastes, especially when it comes to what they watch together.

“We have so many of the same interests,” he said. “We were addicted to watching documentaries, like the Bob Marley one. Watching films together is so fun. We must’ve watched El Cantante 15 times.”

He also made clear that his admiration for Rihanna has not faded more than six years after their friendship became romantic.

“This woman has always been magic,” Rocky said. “Philosophically, the way she operates is on another level. She is the most charming and genuine person on Earth. Her energy is unmatched, one of a kind.”

So yes, Kidman’s answer got the laugh. But Rocky’s response did the real work: a little fashion talk, a little public devotion, and no attempt to out-quip Nicole Kidman at close range.
