5 Hottest Australian American Actors We Totally Love

Mrs. Gossiper had recently come back from a vacation to Australia and New Zealand. She was all praises about how beautiful the place is and how amazing the people are. “No wonder celebrities from Australia are wonderful too”, she commented. We could totally predict that we were in for a conversation about Australian American celebrities. Although we were familiar with these names, we wanted to hear it from Mrs. Gossiper herself. It’s more fun that way, isn’t it?

Nicole Kidman

"Although this Australian American Hollywood star is born in Hawaii, her parents are originally Australian and the family returned Down Under when this lovely lady was just 4 years old" says Mrs. Gossiper. "Before I tell you some facts about this Australian American celebrity, allow me to tell you some gossip about her. She has two adopted kids from her first marriage to Tom Cruise. And she recently had her own child from Keith Urban. That's a lot of kids, girl!", laughed Mrs. Gossiper. She went on to tell us that Nicole Kidman has starred in some great movie like The Others, The Hours, The Golden Compass, Eyes Wide Shut, The Stepford Wives, Bewitched, and Moulin Rouge, amongst many other classics.

"Just look at his features darlings. Isn't he adorable?", asked Mrs. Gossiper. "This handsome lad was born in Melbourne, Australia and is of Croatian-German origin. He's done some great movies like Hulk, Troy, Munich, Black Hawk Down, Finding Nemo and Star Trek", she added. "Do you know girls, this handsome Eric Bana is married to the daughter of the Chief Justice of Australia? She's a lucky girl", commented Mrs. Gossiper.

Mel Gibson

3. Mel Gibson

"How can you call Mel Gibson Australian if he was born in America?", we asked. "Yes dearies, I know that but his mother is of Australian lineage. Not only that, he moved back to Sydney, Australia with his family when he was only 12 years old and studied at the famous Australian National Institute of Dramatic Art", informed Mrs. Gossiper. "Friends, did you know, this Australian American actor has been awarded the AO, which is a top Aussie honor for an outstanding achievement?", she added. From where does Mrs. G get all this information, we wonder.

Cate Blanchett

"Frankly speaking, I wouldn't put this babe in the category of hot Australian American stars. She's more intellectual, if I could say", commented Mrs. Gossiper, immersed in deep thought. "This Melbourne born star rose to fame with the movie Elizabeth and has given superb performances one after the other", she added. Mrs. Gossiper continued "Friends, did you know she and her husband are the artistic directors of the Sydney Theatre Company? I find that to be very sophisticated".

Hugh Jackman

5. Hugh Jackman

"Hugh has been one of the hottest Australian exports to Hollywood, don't you think so?", Mrs. Gossiper asked us. "Sure thing, Mrs. G. This Sydney born hunk was looking drool worthy in the movies X-Men, Kate & Leopold, Van Helsing, Flushed Away, The Prestige and Australia", we replied. "Here's some insider's gossip on Mr. Jackman. Do you know he and his actress wife have adopted two children because she had two miscarriages before?", said Mrs. Gossiper. This lady can never run out of gossip, can she?
