It seems that not even globally renowned actresses are free from the burden of upsetting the neighbours.
57-year-old Nicole Kidman, who stars in the soon-to-be released erotic thriller Babygirl opposite Harris Dickinson, opened up about her personal life during an appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.
The Australian actress, who is married to Keith Urban, filled people in on her Christmas light traditions.

She said: "Yes, I have lights up. I'm the person who has the lights up very, very early. We put them up at the beginning of November."
Colbert then asked her if this means she forgoes Thanksgiving celebrations, which this year took place on 28 November, due to Christmas lights already being displayed.
She explained: "No, we do a huge Thanksgiving. I just like to have the lights up. So we've got the lights up. I apologised (to) all the neighbours."
"We are negotiating calling them winter lights."

Kidman then quipped: "I want to start a whole movement that allows winter lights to stay up. A light up your life movement."
This year's holiday season follows the heartbreaking loss of Kidman's mother, Janelle, in September.
At the Venice Film Festival, Kidman was awarded the Volpi Cup for Best Actress for her role as CEO Romy in Babygirl.
Kidman had to leave the festival following the passing of her mother, and Babygirl director Halina Reijn accepted the award on Kidman's behalf, reading out the actresses statement: "Today, I arrived in Venice to find out shortly after that my beautiful, brave mother, Janelle Ann Kidman, has just passed.

“I am beyond grateful that I get to say her name to all of you through Halina. The collision of life and art is heartbreaking, and my heart is broken.”
Kidman opened up further regarding her grief on CBS's Sunday Morning, as well as talking about how she initially intended to give up acting after the birth of her daughter, Sunday.
She recalled: "When I gave birth to [Sunday], I was like, 'Well, I think I’m pretty much done now'.

"We were living on a farm, and that’s when my mother said, 'I wouldn’t give up completely. Keep a finger sort of in it'. And I’m like, 'No, no. I’m done now. I’m done'.
"She’s going, 'Just listen to me. Keep moving forward. Not saying that you have to do it to the level you’ve been doing it, but I wouldn’t give it up completely'."
Kidman continued: "That came from a woman who was from a generation that didn’t have the opportunities that I had, that she had helped create for her daughters.
"So that’s probably something that she wished she’d had when she was little."
