"  Oh, to be a celebrity in the paparazzi era. Nicole Kidman was just trying to enjoy her time in New York during Fashion Week yesterday afternoon, ambling back up Madison Avenue to the Carlyle Hotel, when all of a sudden, some big terrible goon on a bicycle zoomed up behind her with a camera, knocking her to the ground. Police and paramedics were called to the scene, although Kidman declined medical attention, and the bicyclist was taken into custody and issued summonses for &amp;quot;reckless driving, riding a bicycle on the sidewalk and riding without a helmet.&amp;quot;  Later, when asked if she would be pressing charges, she said: &amp;quot;I was shaken up and I&amp;#039;ll deal with it later. I&amp;#039;m here for this now.&amp;quot; But you know what? She should! You don&amp;#039;t knock a 49-year-old woman to the ground trying to get a picture of her. You just don&amp;#039;t. Especially if she&amp;#039;s wearing Nicholas Kirkwood heels. Nicole Kidman is very tall and very lean and it&amp;#039;s bound to be challenging enough to get around teetering on a pair of perilously high pumps without worrying about some d-bag on a bike barreling into you.  As for the ongoing paparazzi culture, Kidman called it &amp;quot;terrifying&amp;quot; but sounded defeated by it when she spoke to E! Online later that evening. &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;ve lived with it for so long now,&amp;quot; she said, referring to the constant presence of photographers following her. &amp;quot;Luckily I got up,&amp;quot; she added darkly. &amp;quot;But there will be a time when someone does not.&amp;quot; Ominous.
