Taking a tumble: Nicole Kidman was knocked over
by a photographer on a bicycle on Thursday as she returned to her New
York hotel after attending the Calvin Klein Fashion Week show

Close encounter: Nicole fortunately threw her hands in front of her so that she didn't hit her head
Rushing to her aid: Fortunately staff from the Carlyle hotel and Nicole's assistants were right there to help
She was helped up by assistants and was seen rubbing her right leg which bore the brunt of her weight when she hit the ground.A security guard was seen wrestling the bicycle of Wu as he lay sprawled on the floor outside the Carlyle hotel.
It is illegal to ride bicycles on the sidewalk in New York City and it is likely that Wu was slapped with a ticket.
That's got to hurt: Nicole did her best to recover swiftly and hop up after the incident
Gently now: Everyone made sure Nicole stood up slowly in case of injury although she was trying to hurry off
Scary situation: The photographer remained tangled in his bike while Nicole was pulled off the ground
While at the Calvin Klein show Nicole showed off a new bob haircut and her youthful complexion was clear as she wore minimal make-up aside from pink lipgloss.
The actress was also highlighting her teeny tiny waist in a dress which was nipped in with a thin gold belt.
Always graceful: Nicole attempted to slip back into her high heels but then realised it was better to leave it
In trouble: A security guard wore a stern face as he talked to the paparazzo, who had his equipment in a rucksack
Exit stage right: Other photographers were taking pictures at the scene so a man ushered Nicole into the hotel
Making a quick getaway: The 46-year-old hobbled into her hotel wearing just one of her high heels
Nicole teamed it with three tone shows in white, brown and black hues, along with a gold watch and dazzling earrings.
The Stoker star also carried a ponyskin clutch bag and wore large cat-eye sunglasses until she was inside Spring Studios where the show was taking place.
Questioned: Wu was seen talking to the police who most likely gave him a ticket for cycling on the sidewalk
