Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman
Rupert Murdoch may live in the United States, but the Australian-born mogul ensured that his daughters with wife Wendi Deng have solid Aussie godparents. In 2010, Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman, who starred together in Baz Luhrmann's Australia—a Twentieth Century Fox film—formalized the godparent relationship when they attended the baptism of Murdoch and Deng's daughters, Grace and Chloe, beside the River Jordan, which is believed to be the site of Jesus' baptism. After the ceremony, attended by Keith Urban, Ivanka Trump, and other celebrities, Jordan's Queen Rania told Hello! magazine: "I am happy to be sharing this land that I love with my friends. We're a small country but we're rich with history and culture."
