ADÉLA - Nicole Kidman
Discussing the hit song on Making the Album with Capital Buzz, Adéla said: "I've always loved Nicole, but, when I was writing the album, I had just watched Eyes Wide Shut for the first time. I was upset because I wanted more Nicole in the movie. She obviously stole every scene that she was in and I was like, 'I need more Nicole'."
She added: "The next day, I went to this Golden Globes party. I was like, 'Well, what am I doing here?' I've never been in a movie, but somehow I snuck my way in. I had the swoop. I had the corset on and my tits were pressed up and I was like, "Woof! This is glamour! This is Nicole."
Adéla ended by saying: "I feel like Nicole and that's what the song is about."
The song itself also contains multiple references to Adéla's career including shoutouts to her hit films 'Moulin Rouge' and 'Babygirl'. Essentially, the song is about feeling that you evoke the same superstardom as Nicole Kidman.

ADÉLA - 'Nicole Kidman' lyrics
CHORUS
Every single night
I pray that my tits are sittin' right
Moulin Rouge, my corset is so tight
Babygirl in control, I feel like Nicole (I feel like)
And every single day
I wake up, the world is my buffet
I fly out, f--- up another stage
Babygirl in control, I feel like Nicole
I feel like
VERSE 1
Ooh, spent a couple hours in my room
Should I wear Louboutins or Jimmy Choos?
Try 'em in the mirror, fully nude
Like, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh (Ooh)
My bra should probably be a bigger size (Size)
Maybe that's why they can't look me in my eyes (They're up here)
Been a minute since the driver's been outside
I gotta slide, slide
PRE-CHORUS
I pull up (Uh-huh), step out (Uh-huh)
Get your pictures 'cause I'm not gonna stay for long
I'll say, "Hi" (I'm gone), bye-bye
Live vicariously through me, write my life like it's a movie, like
CHORUS
Every single night
I pray that my tits are sittin' right
Moulin Rouge, my corset is so tight
Babygirl in control, I feel like Nicole
And every single day
I wake up, the world is my buffet
I fly out, f--- up another stage
Babygirl in control, I feel like Nicole
I feel like
VERSE 2
Don't (Don't, don't) interrupt me
When I talk my shit, don't interrupt me
'Cause everything you say, it dictates your destiny
That's why I put "Pop Princess" on my license plate
PRE-CHORUS
I pull up (Uh-huh), step out (Uh-huh)
Get your pictures 'cause I'm not gonna stay for long
I'll say, "Hi" (I'm gone), bye-bye
Live vicariously through me, write my life like it's a movie, like
CHORUS
Every single night
I pray that my tits are sittin' right
Moulin Rouge, my corset is so tight
Babygirl in control, I feel like Nicole (I feel like Nicole)
And every single day
I wake up, the world is my buffet
I fly out, f--- up another stage
Babygirl in control, I feel like Nicole
I feel like
OUTRO
Tonight (Tonight)
I'm so in control (I'm so in)
Tonight (Tonight)
I feel like Nicole
