Nicole Kidman Is 'On a High' in a Hyperbaric Chamber by Dan Beleiu for Allure May 2025

A Dual Hyperbaric Chamber Meetup

The irrepressible, uber-talent Nicole Kidman rolls on with life, inviting Allure Magazine Summer 2025 to meet her for am atypical bodyshop tuneup.

“It doesn’t sound as clean as a regular piano,” Smith notes about their use of a 1910 piano for ‘Big Feelings. “The wood sound adds to the snarly nature of the song—it’s like we’re going inside the mind, where everything is textured.”
