While singing “Kiss a Girl,” the artist took a fan’s phone to FaceTime their friend, per US Weekly.

Then, when belting his hit breakup track, “You’ll Think of Me,” Urban changed the lyric “Take your space and take your reasons” to “Your bulls–t reasons.”

Urban also chose not to sing his love song written for Kidman, 58, titled “The Fighter.”

He did, however, include pictures of the star and their daughters, Sunday, 17, and Faith, 14, in a slideshow during his “Heart Like a Hometown” performance.

He made no mention of Baugh’s absence during his performance.

The Post reached out to Urban’s rep for comment.

Meanwhile, rumors are swirling that Urban is already involved with a new woman.

Many are surmising that he’s romantically involved with Baugh, 25. Her dad recently addressed these claims.

“I don’t know anything about it, other than she’s a guitar player for him,” he told Daily Mail on Thursday.

Baugh’s father, who first met Urban last year during a concert in Las Vegas, said that he believes the nature of their relationship is strictly professional.

“It’s more of a musician thing than a dating thing,” he added, before confessing that he hasn’t “heard one way or the other.”

“All the signs point to the fact Keith is with another woman,” a source told TMZ on Tuesday. “Let’s just say Nicole doesn’t dispute that, but she’s still shocked over it.”

“It’s all over Nashville,” a second insider claimed.

It didn’t help that Urban recently changed a song lyric originally about Kidman to reference Baugh during a recent concert.

While performing “The Fighter,” Urban referenced his “utility player,” Baugh, who was onstage with him, instead of his estranged wife.

The original lyric in the song is: “When they’re tryna get to you, baby I’ll be the fighter.”

But Urban sang: “When they’re tryna get to you, Maggie I’ll be your guitar player.”

“I know Keith. I know his mannerisms,” a Nashville radio professional told Daily Mail. “Even if I didn’t know what I know, I’d be like, ‘There’s something going on here.’”

“The rumor is that it was an aspiring musician on the scene, a much-younger brunette, and she totally fits the bill,” he added of Baugh.

Meanwhile, the Grammy winner was also without his wedding band ahead of the concert on Thursday.

The “One Too Many” singer wore a t-shirt, jacket, black baseball cap and sunglasses as he held his bag and went without a band on that finger.

On Wednesday, Kidman stepped out with her younger sibling for the first time since news of their split broke.

The “Big Little Lies” alum was photographed on a hike in Nashville, Tennessee, with her sister, Antonia.

Pictures obtained by Daily Mail, showed Kidman sported black leggings, a gray jacket, a baseball cap and dark-colored sunglasses.

The Oscar winner appeared to be in deep conversation with Antonia.

Per the outlet, Kidman was seen linking arms with her sister and placing her hands on her heart at one point.

On Tuesday, the actress filed for divorce from Urban. Court documents obtained by The Post revealed that she cited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the breakup. Kidman listed their date of separation as “date of filing,” which was Sept. 30.

“Sometimes relationships just run their course,” a source told Page Six on Monday, adding that Kidman did not want to split and tried saving their relationship.

Insiders also claim the pair, who tied the knot in 2006, have been living separately “since the beginning of summer.”
