'08
Kylie Minogue is an Australian icon, and I grew up in Australia when she was at her biggest. There were so many babies named Kylie (and quite a few named after the Dynasty characters), but it seems that there might be more people in Kylie’s head then named after her.
Kylie said: “It’s not about having two different personalities - it’s about having a whole committee in your head.
“It’s about having this discussion with the committee about something really important, and assuming it took place for real.
“Like, recently, I was telling my friend William Baker about my next tour and what we’re going to be doing on it, and he was looking at me, like, ‘What tour, when?’ And suddenly I remembered I hadn’t actually told anybody I was planning to go on tour again besides myself.”
Riiiight. I’ve always suspected that one fo the keys to success in the music industry is reinvention, but I guess Kylie is taking it one step further when she brings out a new album and just lets another personality out. Which is healthy, possibly. I’m not a doctor!!
Kylie is planning a big tour to celebrate her 40th birthday next year, which should be pretty amazing, and hopefully her skimpy outfits will stem a few of those pregnancy rumours.
Kylie was also honoured for her contribution to music by the Queen, receiving an Order of the British Empire. This is quite an honour, as close to knighthood a non-British citizen can get. While Kylie resides in London permanently she is an Australian citizen.
