Kylie Minogue & TOUS Wish You A Merry Xmas

Only 36 days 'til Xmas
Thursday, November 19th, 2009

As unfortch as it may be, Xmas is a little over a month away and the fine folks at Tous Jewelry want to remind you that there are only 36 days left before you have to have your Xmas shopping finished … which is why they’ve released this really cute promo photo of Kylie Minogue from their holiday ad campaign to inspire you to drop some dough and buy some bling this holiday season:


Okay … so even if you’re not gonna be blowing wads of cash on jewels this holiday season you gotta give it up to Tous for partnering with Kylie for their campaign. She is such a doll … if anyone is gonna get me to buy diamonds, it’d be Kylie. I’m SO not ready for Xmas just yet but I can’t deny Kylie in a Santa hat is too cute to hate on … especially when you hear her singing THIS in your head ;)

Kylie Minogue Spends Hallowe’en In NYC With Some Famous Friends

Tuesday, November 3rd, 2009

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 :)

Kylie Minogue Does Australian ‘In Style’ Magazine

Tweet Tweet
Wednesday, October 28th, 2009

Kylie Minogue just tweeted a message on her official Twitter account alerting her followers to the fact that she is featured on the cover of the new issue of Australian In Style magazine … behold:


Altho the Aussie In Style website has yet to be updated with anything concerning Kylie’s appearance in the mag, at least we have something to look forward to. I’m not sure that I love this coverphoto, tho … something about the Photoshopping that makes it look fake and weird. Here’s hoping the photos included inside the mag look a bit better. Kylie looks totally 1992 on this cover … which isn’t necessarily a good thing. What do y’all think?

Kylie Minogue: Acoustic In NYC

Backstage & Intimate
Monday, October 19th, 2009

Kylie Minogue, who recently completed a very successful first concert tour of North America, updated her official blog by posting a new video that she recorded backstage at the Hammerstein Ballroom in NYC (the venue for her 3 NYC shows last week). Kylie, her backup singers, musical director and guitarist performed an intimate and short set of 2 acoustic tracks … Wow and Red Blooded Woman:


I am in absolute LOVE with this video … Kylie sounds amazing and makes it very evident why she has managed to enjoy such a successful worldwide career in music. Wow is one of my fave upbeat Kylie songs (actually, it’s one of my fave Kylie songs period) and it’s such a treat to hear it performed acoustically. After the jump, check out the video and hear for yourselves …

Kylie Minogue Takes A Bite Out Of The Big Apple

Parties on her last night of the 'For You, For Me' Tour
Wednesday, October 14th, 2009

Kylie Minogue performed the final concert of her first ever North American Tour titled For You, For Me at the Hammerstein Ballroom in NYC, NY last night. After she took her final bows and said her last goodbyes (hopefully, not for long) she and her crew made their way out into NYC to celebrate the completion of a very successful tour. Here are a couple photos of Kylie out on the town in NYC last night:


All the models are wearing it, as are the celebs. And now Kylie Minogue has joined the fashionable ranks of the leather brigade. The pop princess slipped into a form-fitting black leather dress as she ventured out in New York last night. The below-the-knee length of the ensemble, complete with its high neckline, ensured the singer, 41, carried off a truly sexy, but non-trashy, look. She adds to a growing list of star who are opting for leather, which has featured prominently in the autumn catwalk shows. Kate Moss attended Paris Fashion Week in tight-fit leather dress last week, while Victoria Beckham was this week spotted rocking a pair leather trousers with studs. Those who dare to wear it have to be brave, however, as the unforgiving material has a knack of showing up every lump and bump. Pint-sized Kylie, however, naturally carried it off, teaming her outfit with a pair of criss-cross black heels. The Australian singer last night complete her nine-date For You For Me tour in the Big Apple. It marked her first tour of North America and also saw her perform in Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Chicago, Oakland and Toronto. Kylie’s tour was well received by critics, who praised the singer for managing to perform energetic dances while singing live. Variety writer Andrew Barker said: ‘Her voice tends toward tinniness and lacks depth, yet she’s obviously proficient and can hit some very big notes when required – and unlike many of her backing-track-assisted contemporaries, Minogue’s vocals seemed to be entirely live.’ Billboard critic Keith Caulfield added: ‘Let’s be clear – this wasn’t a lip-syncing showcase. Minogue sang live and was in fine voice throughout her set. ‘She has repurposed some of the best moments from her previous globe-trotting outings for her first U.S. tour – thus giving American concertgoers a taste of what they’ve missed all these years.’ Kylie’s costumes on her new tour come from the catwalk collections of Jean Paul Gaultier and Dolce And Gabbana.

Alas … and now the tour is over … and Kylie is going back to Europe where she is (rightfully) beloved and appreciated for being the amazing artist that she is. I truly hope she comes back soon … hopefully with her next tour ;) After the jump, check out a video that Kylie and her people made as they arrived in NYC for the first of 3 shows which took place on Sunday night …

The TV Guide
Tuesday, October 13th, 2009

Last night I was lucky enough to attend my 4th and final performance of Kylie Minogue’s first ever North American Tour For You, For Me. My good friend Tony and I made our way to the Hammerstein Ballroom last night and managed to get all the way to the front gate right in front of the stage. It was the closest I’ve ever been to Kylie Minogue and it was a THRILL beyond words:


After the jump, you can check out a few of the AMAZING photos I snapped last night … I was all up in her grill so I got a lot of really fantastic photos. Tony managed to get video of Kylie busting out the Cabbage Patch dance move on stage and you can also watch that video behind the cut …
