Actor Nicole Kidman turned emotional while receiving the 2025 Palm Springs International Film Festival's international star award from Jamie Lee Curtis. As per People, Nicole honoured her late mother at the ceremony and dedicated the award to her. After thanking Babygirl filmmaker Halina Reijn for casting her in the movie, Kidman noted that she is "still grieving" after Janelle's death.

I'm still going to keep working and giving to the world because I love what I do and I love you all, and I'm so grateful for the privilege to be a part of the film community."
