Nicole Kidman -- Not Worth Fighting Over

Posted Feb 15th 2009 2:02PM by TMZ Staff

Tom Cruise and Keith Urban, the former and current husbands of Nicole Kidman, came face-to-face during the driver's meeting today at the Daytona 500, according to TMZ spies.

Tom Cruise, Keith Urban

Cruise, who's at the NASCAR event to drive the race's pace car, and Urban, who's playing a concert at the race, squared off -- you would think to talk about the whole wife swap thing.

But our spies say the country singer and Scientolostar shook hands and had a few laughs -- probably about sharing a bed with Nicole and treating the inevitable frostbite that comes after such a risky move.

And ain't this sweet -- Connor went up to chew the fat with Keith.

NASCAR Stars in Big Ad Ventures

Posted Feb 18th 2007 12:05AM by TMZ Staff

The Super Bowl isn't the only sporting event that features the best in advertising. The Daytona 500, known as "The Great American Race," airs this Sunday on FOX, and several big advertisers are breaking out new, NASCAR-themed commercials.

Last year's Daytona 500 drew 37 million viewers, causing this year's 30-second spots this year to cost as much as $500,000! Allstate, DirecTV, Oreos and Sunoco are just four of the companies launching new ads.

In the Allstate spot, racing heartthrob Kasey Kahne is stopped by a female police officer who is more interested in checking out his rear end than in giving him a ticket.
