Chase Matthew opened for Keith Urban’s High and Alive Tour in Newcastle, Australia. The crowd was still buzzing from his set, and when he's done, Urban and his wife, Hollywood royalty, Nicole Kidman, wrapped him in a hug. If being involved in a group hug with Urban and Kidman is not the dream, we don’t know what is.
Chase Matthew: “They Both Came Running Over and Gave Me Like the Biggest Hugs Ever”
Matthew is one of the tour openers of Urban’s High and Alive Tour. The Tennessee native took the stage with his signature energy, and when he walked off, he saw Urban and Kidman running towards him. Matthew said in an interview, “They both came running over and gave me like the biggest hugs ever, and as they come to approach me for a hug, I'm like ‘Wait, I'm so sweaty, you don't wanna do that.’”
He added, “They were like, 'Oh my God, you were great.’”
The “County Line” singer admitted to not being starstruck with Kidman only because he didn’t realize how famous she is: “I didn't watch a lot of movies growing up, so I didn't realize how big of a star she was.”
What’s Next for Him?
Matthew just released his third album, Chase, on February 21. Aside from opening for Urban, he’s also busy with his Holdin’ It Down Tour 2025.
