Nicole Kidman's Bodyguard is Willing to Die for Her:

We already knew Nicole Kidman's bodyguard was willing to beat the shit out of photographers to protect her privacy, but now we've learned that he's also willing to lay down his own life for the same.

Stunned paps discovered the lengths to which Kidman's protector would go when they attempted to chase her and Keith Urban after the couple exited New York's Music Box. Their efforts were thwarted, they claim, when the bodyguard exited Nicole and Keith's SUV and lay down in the street to block any would-be pursuers.

"It was unbelievable," one pap said. "We couldn't move. I've never seen anything like this. After about five minutes, this guy just got up, wished us all a nice evening and strolled off.

"You can only hope that Nicole pays this guy a fortune."

I'm disappointed in the paps, quite frankly. I thought they were more persistent than this. Must be a New York thing. The L.A. paps would've just made a speed-bump out of the guy.
