1. Sit down interview with Kylie Minogue. Talks on: breaking the US, being a virtual unknown in the USA, the success of 'Can't Get You Out Of My Head', the video for above single and the dress in the video, the single 'In Your Eyes', on her beauty secrets, on plastic surgery, on her Australian patriotism, on the best valentine's day present she's ever received + valentine's day in general. Including soundbites
"The last time that I was in the States, not much, I would be recognized by a few people but it would be more likely to be tourists here - English people or Australian people - 'oh hi!' - and this trip I haven't really had any time to be out and about, but there seems to be a genuine excitement which is really warming and reassuring."
"I think I just, from working in television when I was young, or just the way I am. The red light comes on and you do it, red light goes off you wait. On, do it."
"Beauty secrets? Erm, Let me look in my little book. No, I just have great people that I work that try and find the right parts and enhance what I've got going on and hide what isn't so good. As far as my stature goes I'm five foot one - there's nothing of me. My problem is more so trying to keep weight on when I'm really busy and stressed and honestly two days can go by and I'm like 'oh no where have I gone?'"
"Well I haven't had to. I'm very open minded about that. We'll cross that bridge if and when I come to it. I don't have any strong feelings on it either way. It works for some people and, if you're not into it, well don't go there."
"When I get home, trust me, the stilettos come off, the slippers go on and I am more like a nanna than the person you see in the video. So I have my own way of balancing it."
"There seems to be a genuine excitement which is really warming and reassuring I think, obviously most people think I fell off the face of the earth after 1987. And I suppose they are intrigued to know 'what did you do?', and I say I haven't stopped working. I am on my 8th album, I just haven't been working here so... "
"Prior to a small amount of tape yes, of course I have been asked so much, 'how did that stay up' and my stories were getting more and more over the top. Saying 'well we had a team of stunt men, we had some wires, trained sniffer dogs'. And they would look at me and say 'It was tape right!' yes it was tape."
"It has the magic ingredient and if we knew what that was we would be able to do it all the time."
"I am intensely patriotic. To the point where I will be somewhere and hear two words that will just ring as Australian to me and I'll think there's an Australian over there. And for everything that I have done. For the way that some people might perceive me I am still just an Aussie girl and get excited that there are Aussies over there."
"I think the time has chosen me. I didn't choose the time and say 'I'm going to go to America'. There's a part of me that, frankly, is wondering what I'm doing here. Literally sitting here looking out at LA. I would come here on holidays and no-one would pay me any attention, it was fantastic. I'd be shopping in malls or wherever and people would say 'Miss, where is the lingerie section?' (and I'd say) 'Sorry I don't work here'. But now, it's different."
