While accepting the award for best actress at the National Board of Review Gala in New York City Tuesday, Jan. 7, the actress, 57, incorporated a steamy scene from the A24 erotic thriller into her acceptance speech.

Cheers erupted in the room as Kidman sipped from the glass, guzzling the entire contents on the cup in mere seconds.

“Good girl,” she said with a smile before blowing a kiss as she walked off from the stage.

“It happened to me,” Reijn, 49, recently toldIndieWire.

Reijn, who is also an actress, recalled a time when she’d just finished a production and wanted to celebrate but all of her friends were being “boring,” so she went out alone.

“I went to a bar, and I ordered something boring like a Diet Coke because I didn’t drink at that time because I was a control freak. There was this young Belgian actor — I can’t say who it is — but he was famous. I knew of him. I’d never spoken to him. He was at least 15 years younger than I, and he ordered me a glass of milk,” she said in the Dec. 28 interview.
