As you may recall, Kylie Minogue recently performed a short tour of North America in late September and early October ending her run in NYC where she performed 3 triumphant shows at the Hammerstein Ballroom. Well, Kylie must’ve felt the pull of the Big Apple once again because she was inspired to spend Hallowe’en with some of her American BFFs over the weekend. Here is a great group photo of (from left to right) Lorenzo Martone, Fergie Ferg, Marc Jacobs, Kylie and Andrés Velencoso all dolled up on Hallowe’en:

Okay … so yeah, this will be the last Hallowe’en pic of celebs that I’ll post this year … a few days after Hallowe’en and the candy starts to taste stale, same goes for the pics ;) But this is such a great group shot, I had to share it with all y’all. I understand that these folks were partying at Club 57 at Providence Night Club in Manhattan and a great time was had by all. I believe the folks in the UK (where Kylie lives) don’t do Hallowe’en like we yanks do on this side of the pond so I can see why Kylie decided to fly back to the US to celebrate Hallowe’en right. We are happy to have her anytime she wants to come back :)

Lawd … yesterday was a very bizzy day for me. As you prolly already know, David and I made our way down to Washington DC early yesterday morning to participate at the National Equality March and then came straight back to NYC so that we could attend Kylie Minogue’s first NYC concert EVER at the Hammerstein Ballroom last night:

The show, once again, was freakin’ fantastic. David and I got to see Kylie in Oakland, CA and then again in Hollywood, CA and last night’s show was JUST AS FUN as the previous two. My friend Tony, who is also here in town to see the Kylie shows, managed to get right up front and took a whole bunch of amazing photos. After the jump, check out some of his photos — trust me, they are deffo worth checking out …

Kylie Minogue played a triumphant show at the iconic Hollywood Bowl here in Hollywood, CA last night (her first ever performance in Los Angeles) and for all intents and purposes owned the night! But after she completed her show, she was ready to get down and party so she and her model boyfriend Andrés Velencoso made their way to Social Hollywood for a little afterparty celebration:

It’s pretty fantastic to see Kylie get photographed here in the US … normally, when she breezes into town she manages to get away with not being recognized. After she brought the house down at the Hollywood Bowl last night tho she was deffo the star of the night. My friends and I and 99.9% of the gays here in SoCal were in attendance at last night’s show and I’ll post photos a little later on. I’m not entirely sure how late Kylie partied into the wee hours of the AM but I hope it was a fun night for her!! Her next performance is Wednesday night in Chicago, IL so hopefully she’ll be sticking around here in SoCal for a day or two ;)

Last Thursday we learned that Kylie Minogue and her model beau Andrés Velencoso made their way to Rome, Italy in order to celebrate her 41st birthday together … and today we get to see a few, intimate pics from the birthday lunch they shared at Le Jardin de Russie on her special day. As you can see from the pics, there was much more to be had for lunch than what was offered on the menu:

They are so cute together … I absolutely love seeing Kylie Minogue look so happy. She truly deserves to find a man that will love and care for her. I’d love to see her settled … she’s given so much to her fans over the years. I hope she is able to start a home with Velencoso soon. It’s been rumored that the couple are either secretly engaged or are planning to get engaged. I just want to see her happy. It looks like she had a great birthday :)

Birthday Lurve goes out to Kylie Minogue today as she celebrates her 41st … something tells me that this year is going to be her best year ever! Kylie and her hawt model boyfrined Andrés Velencoso have made their way to Rome, Italy this week to celebrate her birthday in one of the most romantic cities in the world. Rumor has it that the couple have gotten or are planning to be engaged — and what better place in the world to be to celebrate or get engaged than Rome? Whether or not that is true, I suspect that Kylie will enjoy a fabulous birthday nonetheless. Here are a few photos of the happy couple in Rome this week:

Rome, one of the most romantic cities in the world, proved the perfect destination for Kylie Minogue and her young love Andres Velencoso yesterday. The couple were seen out together in the Italian capital amid rumours they are secretly engaged. While there was no ring on Kylie’s finger, she certainly looked delighted as she and the Spanish model arrived back at their hotel after dining at Dal Bolognese restaurant. Velencoso, 31, is said to have proposed to the singer, who turns 41 today, during a trip to New York earlier this month. “She couldn’t stop shrieking for joy,” a source told Grazia magazine this week. “He apparently told her he wanted to wake up next to her every day for the rest of his life.” The source continued: “She asked him if he knew what he was saying and if he was serious, and when he said yes and that he wanted to marry her, she was thrilled.” Kylie is yet to choose a ring, according to the publication, but has taken to wearing a £8,000 diamond heart-shaped sparkler on her right hand. The pair, who have been dating for just seven months, have quickly become serious. In February, Velencoso moved into the singer’s London home and both have spent time with each other’s parents in Australia and Spain. “Everyone is convinced Kylie has found her soul-mate in Andres,’ added the source. “She is quite clearly head-over-heels in love and he equally seems to adore her.” Kylie herself said just weeks ago: “It is all going well and I know I am very happy right now. I want the happy-ever-after ending. I’ve definitely changed. I’m just letting things happen and seeing what does. In so many ways I am behind the mark for my age.” She met Velencoso in October 2008 at a party thrown by the burlesque star Dita Von Teese. The relationship started slowly as Kylie was still recovering from the collapse of her four-year romance with French actor Olivier Martinez, who helped nurse her through breast cancer in 2005.

Nothing would make me happier than to learn that Kylie has truly found the man of her dreams and is ready to settle down in happily wedded bliss. She is such an extraordinary performer who has given so much to her fans over the last 20 years, I’m sure all of her fans would be happy to see her settled and happy. MMMMM, she could do much worse than settlin’ down to have babies with Velencoso. Irregardless of whether she is or isn’t engaged, will or won’t be engaged … I wish her NOTHING but happiness on her birthday today!!! Much Birthday Lurve to you, Kylie!!

It looks like Kylie Minogue has finally moved on from her break-up with actor Olivier Martinez and has found a handsome new gent to keep her warm and cozy. Here are a couple pics of Kylie lookin’ all coupley with Spanish model Andres Velencoso at the Fendi ‘O’ Party which took place at Le Milliardaire Club in Paris, France Saturday night (the event was a birthday celebration for Dita von Teese). If you ask me, they look very much together in these pics:

SHE still walks her ex-boyfriend’s pooch but it looks like Kylie Minogue has found herself a new lap dog in her love life – and he’s a sexy Spanish supermodel to boot. The pop princess has been single since splitting with French actor Olivier Martinez last year. But she has found a cosy place to party in Martinez’s home town of Paris, right in the arms of an attentive younger man, Andres Velencoso. The 30-year-old from Barcelona, who has lucrative contracts with Chanel, Lacoste and Emporio Armani, was introduced to Minogue, 40, at a Fendi party thrown for the birthday of burlesque artist Dita Von Teese. The chemistry between Minogue and her Spanish friend as they cuddled on a couch over drinks reportedly had Paris Fashion Week crowds captivated. A visibly giggly Minogue agreed to pose for photos with the Martinez lookalike. “It was Dita’s party but Kylie was definitely the star of the show,” one onlooker said. “She was turning heads and people were asking about the guy she was sitting with. They certainly made a stunning-looking pair.” But whether love is written in their stars is debatable. Velencoso recently told OK! magazine he found it difficult to date given the international demands of his job.

HMMM … this Andres fellow does look an awful lot like Olivier Martinez, so mebbe Kylie hasn’t totally gotten over him just yet. In any event, it’s great to see Kylie lookin’ this happy nuzzled up to a new man. She’s been single for far too long, she really deserves to find happiness with someone … and if this sexy Spaniard is that special someone, then I wholly approve. As I mentioned, Velencoso is a model and you can see some of his work HERE (psst! he’s in his undies so you may want to take a look). They make a really cute couple … I guess we’ll know soon enough if any sort of relationship will actually spring from any of this.
