Nicole Kidman: 'I never learned to castrate bulls'

Nicole Kidman has denied long-running rumors she learned to castrate bulls for her 2008 movie Australia.

The actress played an aristocratic English landowner in the drama, and she was rumored to have learned real life farm skills to prepare for her character's stint on a cattle station in the Outback.

However, Kidman is adamant she did not go to such extreme lengths for the role.

She tells U.K. talk show host Graham Norton, "I didn't learn to castrate bulls for Australia, that's not true. I've never castrated anything!"
