On the evening of September 8, 2025, Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman gifted the world a moment of pure magic that transcended their status as global superstars. In a rare and intimate performance, the couple performed a stripped-down rendition of Urban’s empowering anthem “Female” at their Nashville home, with their daughters, Sunday Rose, 17, and Faith Margaret, 14, behind the camera. The duet, shared on Urban’s social media accounts, showcased the couple’s undeniable chemistry and vocal harmony, leaving fans emotional and clamoring for more. Filmed by their daughters, the video captured not just a musical performance but a deeply personal glimpse into a family bound by love, creativity, and mutual admiration, sending social media into a frenzy of adoration.
A Family Affair at the Piano
The setting was simple yet poignant: a softly lit room in the couple’s Nashville residence, with Urban seated at a grand piano, his fingers coaxing a gentle melody from the keys. Kidman, dressed in a casual yet elegant sweater, sat beside him, her presence radiating warmth. As Urban began singing the opening lines of “Female”—a song he first released in 2017 as a response to the #MeToo movement—Kidman joined in, her voice soft but clear, weaving seamlessly with his. The lyrics, celebrating the strength and complexity of women with lines like “Sister, shoulder, daughter, lover / Healer, broken halo,” took on new depth as the couple sang together, their voices carrying a shared conviction.
What made the moment truly special was the involvement of Sunday and Faith, who filmed the performance with a steady hand and an eye for capturing their parents’ connection. The video, just over three minutes long, showed Urban and Kidman exchanging loving glances, their smiles reflecting a bond forged over nearly two decades of marriage. Sunday, who has recently stepped into the spotlight with her own modeling and acting ambitions, and Faith, who made a cameo in her mother’s Clé de Peau Beauté campaign earlier in 2025, proved their knack for storytelling through the lens. The result was a raw, unpolished video that felt like a family heirloom shared with the world.
Urban posted the clip on Instagram with a caption that read, “A little moment with Nic for all the incredible women out there. Filmed by our girls, Sunday & Faith. #Female.” The post quickly went viral, amassing millions of views within hours. Fans flooded the comments with praise, with one writing, “Nicole’s voice is stunning! We need more duets from you two!” Another commented, “This is pure love—Keith and Nicole singing together, filmed by their daughters? My heart can’t handle it.” The emotional resonance of the performance, combined with the family’s involvement, turned the duet into a cultural moment that celebrated both artistry and intimacy.
A Song with Deep Meaning
“Female,” written by Shane McAnally, Nicolle Galyon, and Ross Copperman, holds a special place in Urban’s discography. Released in the wake of the Harvey Weinstein scandal and the rise of the #MeToo movement, the song was a bold statement about the strength, resilience, and diversity of women’s experiences. Urban has often spoken about its personal significance, noting that as a father to two daughters and a husband to Kidman, the lyrics resonated deeply. “It’s a soul gospel mantra,” he once described it, emphasizing its role as both a celebration and a call for respect. Kidman contributed background vocals to the original recording, making her participation in the duet a natural extension of her connection to the song.
The 2025 performance, however, elevated the song to new heights. Kidman, known more for her Oscar-winning acting career than her singing, revealed a vocal talent that surprised many fans. Her voice, though untrained, carried a sincerity that complemented Urban’s polished delivery. The couple’s harmonies were unpretentious, their imperfections adding to the authenticity of the moment. As they sang lines like “Baby girl, women shine / Female,” Kidman’s subtle gestures—a hand on Urban’s shoulder, a heart shape formed with her fingers—underscored the song’s message of empowerment and love.
The involvement of Sunday and Faith added an extra layer of meaning. At 17 and 14, the girls are beginning to carve their own paths, with Sunday making her runway debut at Paris Fashion Week in 2024 and Faith appearing in her mother’s beauty campaign. Their decision to film the duet was a spontaneous one, according to a source close to the family, who said the girls grabbed their phones during an impromptu jam session at home. The result was a video that captured not just their parents’ musical talents but their shared joy as a family, making it a touching tribute to the women in their lives and beyond.
A Love Story in the Spotlight
Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman, married since 2006, have long been admired as one of entertainment’s most enduring couples. Their relationship, which began at a G’Day LA event in 2005, has weathered challenges, including Urban’s struggles with addiction early in their marriage. Through it all, their bond has grown stronger, rooted in mutual support and a shared love for creativity. While Kidman has starred in musical films like Moulin Rouge! and The Prom, and even performed a duet with Urban on “Your Song” from the former in 2019, their joint musical performances are rare, making this moment all the more cherished by fans.
The duet was not their first collaboration—previous performances include a 2016 carpool karaoke rendition of “The Fighter” and a 2018 acoustic version of “Parallel Line” at a Nashville fan event. However, the 2025 performance of “Female” stood out for its intimacy and the family dynamic it showcased. Fans noted the way Urban looked at Kidman as they sang, his pride evident in every note, while Kidman’s typically reserved demeanor gave way to a playful, heartfelt energy. “This isn’t just a duet—it’s a love letter,” one fan posted on X, summing up the sentiment shared by millions.
The video’s release came at a time when both Urban and Kidman were navigating busy careers. Urban’s High tour, which concluded in Calgary on September 12, 2025, was a critical and commercial success, with sold-out shows across North America and Australia. Kidman, meanwhile, has been promoting her latest projects, including the third season of Big Little Lies and a new film, Babygirl, set for release later in 2025. Despite their demanding schedules, the couple has prioritized family, often bringing Sunday and Faith to events like the 2025 AFI Achievement Award Gala, where the girls made a rare red-carpet appearance.
The Fan Response and Cultural Impact
The duet’s impact was immediate and far-reaching. On X, hashtags like #KeithAndNicoleDuet and #FemaleByFaithAndSunday trended for days, with fans sharing clips and gushing over the family’s involvement. “Nicole’s voice is so underrated,” one user wrote. “She needs to sing more! And those girls are so talented behind the camera.” Another commented, “This is what love looks like—Keith and Nicole singing together, with their daughters capturing it all. I’m in tears.” The video also sparked calls for a full album of duets, with fans speculating about potential collaborations on Urban’s next project.
The performance resonated beyond its musical beauty, tapping into broader themes of family, empowerment, and authenticity. For many, it was a reminder of the power of small, unscripted moments in a world often dominated by polished productions. The fact that Sunday and Faith, now teenagers with their own creative aspirations, played a role in the video added a generational layer to the story. “It’s like they’re passing the torch,” one fan wrote, noting the girls’ growing presence in the entertainment world.
The duet also highlighted Kidman’s understated musical talents. While she has sung in films and occasionally joined Urban on stage, she has often downplayed her vocal abilities, once joking that she leaves the singing to her husband. Yet, her performance in “Female” showcased a natural warmth and emotional depth that fans hope to hear more of. Urban, for his part, has long praised Kidman’s contributions to his music, noting that her background vocals on “Female” and other tracks have added a personal touch to his work.
A Moment to Remember
The duet of “Female” was more than a musical performance—it was a snapshot of a family united by love and creativity. For Urban and Kidman, it was a chance to share a piece of their private world with their fans, who have followed their journey since their 2006 wedding. For Sunday and Faith, it was an opportunity to contribute to their parents’ legacy while stepping into their own creative roles. The video, with its raw emotion and heartfelt glances, captured a moment that felt both timeless and deeply personal.
As the Denim & Rhinestones tour continues for other artists and Kidman prepares for her next cinematic ventures, the duet serves as a reminder of the couple’s ability to connect with audiences on a human level. Their willingness to share such an intimate moment, filmed by their daughters, underscores their commitment to authenticity, a quality that has defined their careers and their marriage. Fans, still buzzing from the performance, are left with a sense of awe and a fervent hope for more collaborations. As one X post put it, “Keith and Nicole, you’ve given us magic. Now give us an album.” Whether or not that happens, the duet of “Female” will remain a cherished chapter in their story, a testament to the power of music, family, and love.
