Success. Back in 2006, Nicole Kidman was the highest-paid actress in the industry. Her salary history is impressive, as she earned $15 million for 2007's The Golden Compass but has been known to make more (2005's Bewitched remake got her $17.5 mil). She also won an Academy Award for her portrayal of Virginia Woolf in The Hours. Her husband, fellow Aussie Keith Urban, is a Grammy winner with several Billboard number-one singles. Three of his albums have reached platinum status, so he's probably not hurting for money either.
Attractiveness. Nicole's stunning looks have gained her a reputation as a porcelain, statuesque beauty worthy of an endorsement deal with Chanel No. 5 perfume. Keith is no poster boy, but he has the scruffy, masculine jawline and soulful eyes that make audiences swoon.
Popularity. Last month, around 550,000 people searched Google for the dish on Nicole, while even more (1.8 million) searched for Keith. Those figures place them in the top 25 percent of our celeb couples in the popularity category. Not bad!

Nicole was famously married to Tom Cruise for 11 years, with whom she adopted two children. Keith dated a non-celebrity for eight years before moving onto model Niki Taylor in 2002. Still, they've been married for a couple of years now and have a baby girl named Sunday Rose. Watch video coverage of their wedding below.
Compatibility. Nicole's birthday lies on the Gemini/Cancer cusp, while Keith is a solid Scorpio. If Nicole's personality tends more toward Gemini, her outgoing recklessness could irritate his possessive side. But if she's more of a Cancer, this relationship could be deep and devoted, and the only problem these two have is the height difference.
