Kylie Minogue celebrated with a few friends the 20th anniversary of her hit single ‘Locomotion’.

Friday night’s bash was a small party for the close-knit group that has worked with her over the past two decades, said a spokeswoman for Terry Blamey Management.

Her creative director Will Baker once said of Minogue’s mates: “Her best friends you can count on one hand, and those people have known her for a long time.”

Minogue started working in television as an eight-year-old but became internationally known for her role as Charlene in Neighbours.

A chance performance of The Loco-Motion at a benefit concert for a Melbourne AFL club in 1987 launched her music career when she was snapped up by Mushroom Records, which released the song as a single, retitling it Locomotion.

It went to No.1 in the Australian charts and was the highest selling single in Australia in the 1980s.

Two decades and 65million record sales later, her public still adores her.

Obviously Kylie got confused somewhere, and thought she was actually turning 20, and had some work done on her face. As Kylie herself says, beauty secrets are called just that for a reason, and I still luv ya Kyles. I remember that pair of overalls you wore in Neighbours, and begging my mom for a pair. Which I got, and thought I was so cool.

She’s also releasing a sequel to her Darling fragrance, called Sweet Darling. Which is strange – why not just put out a whole new scent? Kate Moss is also developing a new scent. I think that Kate should release a scent of Glastonbury, an earthy scent of beer, mud, seat and rain. Which might be even more effective than Darling for attracting men!

Here are some costume highlights from Kylie’s career, and for those of you who watch Neighbours, here’s a video of her wedding to Scott aka Jason Donovan.

Picture note by Celebitchy: Pictures of Kylie are of her about to go to the 20th Anniversary party for “Locomotion” at Fulham Palace Historic Residence of the Bishops of London, and of her going out to Modiva nightclub afterwards. I’m not digging that dress with the sparkly lip prints. Thanks to Splash News for the photos and description.
