"At the time it was great," the actor, singer and radio presenter said of the relationship, as reported in Britain's Sunday Mirror. "We cemented it in a Sydney Travelodge (hotel). There were a number of promotional trips we would do each weekend and the Travelodge was the place. "I did not lose my virginity to her, though.

Jason Donovan has revealed that his jealousy of Kylie Minogue 's career caused the end of their relationship. The Strictly Come Dancing star dated Minogue for some time during the beginning stages of their singing careers, and he explained that he was envious of her rising stardom. Rex Features / Newspix/Rex Features "I knew I was in love with her when she became successful on her own," he told Piers Morgan on Life Stories . "It was a jealousy thing. "I could see her slipping away. I am sure it happened before that but it was not until I could see her going off in one direction I thought I was going to lose her." Donovan added that he was "truly in love" with Minogue, but that they had different plans for their futures. "I guess it is hard for a young man as you think you are the success story and the breadwinner, but then suddenly she is off on a different course. We did live together for a while and there was a lot of chemistry between

No backing dancers,water features or elaborate costume designs, but Kylie Minogue's latest pop transformation came with its usual twists and thrills. Unveiling her long-promised Anti Tour concept in Sydney, the Australian pop princess ditched the hits for a treasure trove of B-sides, rarities and demos. The stripped-down shows, void of the million dollar stage designs which have characterised previous tours, are a thank you to 'superfans' for their support over the singer's 25 year career. Dressed in rock chic, and backed by a four-man band, Minogue looked half her 43 years as she opened the show with Magnetic Blue and Made In Heaven, the B-side from 1988 hit Je Ne Sais Pas Pourquoi. She raced through the decades, treating fans to rarely played tracks such as the high energy I'm Over Dreaming (Over You), from the album Enjoy Yourself, and Always Find The Time, from her 1990 record Rhythm Of Love. In the main, it was a light hearted affair with Minogue bantering happ

There have been a few exciting pop reunions of late, but there are comebacks and then there is the pure unadulterated disco magic that is eighties-heaven-tastic Kylie Minogue and Jason Donovan - or Scott and Charlene, however you chose to remember them. When news reached Grazia HQ that the most wondrous pop pairing of them all would be taking to the stage once more, some of us early teenyboppers around the glorious period of 1988 were simply beside ourselves. The dream duo has yet to confirm which of their chart-toppers they will treat us to (surely it can only be Especially For You? Please, if there is a God in heaven, let it be so!) but it will be quite the spectacle when the Stock Aitken and Waterman gang, including Bananarama, Rick Astley and Sinitta travel through time to perform a special concert in Hyde Park in July. Certain performers may need to let their stibe washed jeans out an inch or two, but on the whole time has been kind to the old gang (the less said about Jasons

The Star/Asia News NetworkTuesday, Mar 20, 2012 KUALA LUMPUR -Bad news for Malaysian F1 fans Kylie Minogue will not take centrestage in Kuala Lumpur this weekend due to an alleged contractual dispute between Petronas, the chief organiser of the Petronas Malaysian Grand Prix, and Enterprise Entertainment Ltd, the London-based company responsible for the F1 Rocks entertainment extravaganza. The F1 Rocks franchise came under fire last year for failing to bring legendary rock band Metallica for the inaugural Airtel Grand Prix of India as scheduled. But since the show must go on, Jojo Events Sdn Bhd has been brought in at the last hour to keep the crowd feeling pumped up at the Grand Prix. American R&B star Kelis, who was originally scheduled to perform on Saturday, is expected to be joined by Nicole Scherzinger and a yet-to-be announced Korean pop band for the F1 concert series, now repackaged as Twin Towers @Live 2012. The two-day free concert will be held at Petronas Twin Towers, the

Spontaneity is rarely a word associated with the enduring career of Kylie Minogue. Throughout her 25 years in the music industry, Minogue has often been seen as nothing more than a puppet for clever business execs who understand the public's love of a catchy chorus. In front of a sold-out crowd of 2000 in Melbourne's intimate Palace Theatre on Sunday night, the 43-year-old performer threw off the shackles of any previous misconceptions as she went back to basics and delivered the most off-the-wall concert of her career, an "Anti Tour", featuring only B-sides, demos and rarities. Minogue devised the Anti Tour as a way to give back to her hardcore fan base with a show featuring none of the elements that make her concert spectacles so popular. No hit singles, no dancers, no sets, no costume changes - just the performer delivering left-of-field tracks. Looking half her age in a form-fitting vintage Vivienne Westwood Marilyn Monroe T-shirt, sexy cut-off Dolce & Gabbana

Kylie Minogue has played a stripped-down, intimate gig for her most loyal fans in her hometown Melbourne. To mark 25 years in the music business, the Australian singer made a rare performance for 2,000 fans as part of her 'Anti-Tour'. Minogue is better known for her big budget concerts in front of many thousands complete with extravagant costumes and scores of backing dancers. But, for this performance, the 43-year-old dressed in a white top and denim shorts with a back to basics stage set and no dancers. She played two back to back shows in one night at the Palace Theatre in Melbourne for what she called her "superfans". As well as singing some of her biggest hits, Kylie also opted for some of her lesser known B-side songs. On Minogue's last tour, Aphrodite, the singer went through 200 costumes, had 10 dancers and a troupe of acrobats, as well as 30 water fountains. Minogue will play a similar gig in Sydney where earlier this month she performed at the Mardis

The pop superstar played two sold-out shows of her stripped-down Anti-Tour and wowed fans in her home city. Taking to the stage in a vintage Vivienne Westwood Marilyn Monroe T-shirt, cut-off Dolce & Gabbana denim shorts and Giuseppe Zanotti high heels, Minogue rocked through fan favourites and then took to Twitter.com to thank her fans for coming. She wrote, "You guys were all amazzzzzing!!!!" and then added later, "Thank u!!!2 Melbourne #AntiTour shows in one night...... #Boom!!! Thank u all!!" WENN.com

Photo: Jason South POP superstar Kylie Minogue didn't play a single hit at last night's intimate concerts at The Palace - and the fans loved her for it. The antithesis of the usual concert format, the debut show of Minogue's ''anti-tour'' was witnessed by just 2000 of her biggest fans, for whom hearing her perform B-sides, demos and never-before-heard songs was as big a thrill - if not bigger - than hearing her mega-hits. Last night's much-anticipated gig was a rare treat for hardcore fans to see their hometown idol in such a small setting. Australia's pop princess rarely plays venues of less than 12,000 capacity.

Saturday Mar 17 2012 Kylie Minogue credits her toned limbs to hours of dancing on stage. However the Spinning Around singer has revealed she ditches her exercise routine altogether when she stops touring. The svelte 43-year-old star says she needs a break from working out when she is home in order to find a fitness balance. "When I'm on tour I dance a lot and get great arms, but I'm in pain the whole time as stomping about for two and a half hours straight is heavy on my knees, especially with some of the huge dresses I wear," she told the April's UK edition of Marie Claire. "So on tour I'm very fit and when I'm not on tour I just do nothing - I need to find the middle ground." When she is on tour, she also uses plenty of body make-up to improve her appearance on stage. She admits she gets bronzed up before each show. "For work, body make-up is essential - I don't think there will be a day when a make-up artist doesn't have MAC Face

Kylie Minogue has thrilled fans in Australia by agreeing to play extra "late night" shows after tickets to her highly-anticipated 'Anti Tour' sold out in less than 15 minutes. The pop superstar is set to perform in small venues, playing B-sides and rarities for die-hard devotees to mark her 25 years in the spotlight, and tickets to the first two shows in Sydney and Melbourne later this month (Mar12) quickly sold out. Minogue apologised to those who missed out, and has now declared she will be playing two shows back-to-back on each night by adding special late evening performances. A post on the star's website reads, "Inundated by pleas from fans, Kylie has agreed to perform not just one but Two shows on the same night in each city! "The 'late' Anti Tour shows are now scheduled for 11:30pm in Melbourne on Sunday 18th March and 10:30pm in Sydney on Tuesday 20 March."

Kylie Minogue fans in Sydney and Melbourne have a second chance to buy tickets after the singer decided to add two 'late' shows to her sold-out tour. Minogue's Australian Anti Tour to celebrate her 25th anniversary in the music industry sold out in two minutes but after being inundated by fans, the pop star has decided to do two extra shows. The singer had chosen to hold the shows at The Palace in Melbourne and Luna Park in Sydney, which both have only a 2000-seat capacity, because she wanted a more intimate setting after her recent arena tours. Fans were restricted to two tickets at a time to lessen ticket scalping. The 'late' Anti Tour shows are scheduled for 11.30pm in Melbourne on Sunday, March 18 and 10.30pm in Sydney on Tuesday, March 20. Tickets to these extra shows will go on sale at noon (AEDT) on Friday, March 9 on kylie.com and frontiertouring.com/kylie.

Kylie Minogue enjoys 'changing her look'. The 43-year-old singer recently dyed her hair darker for a movie role, and although she enjoyed having brown tresses she is in the process of going back to blonde because she struggles to do her make-up well. She said: 'I think most people think of me as a blonde but I recently had a role in a French film and the director wanted to make my hair darker. 'It's quite fun to change your look for something like that I will gradually go back to a sun-kissed blonde. I've found it really difficult to do my make-up with darker hair. I seem to look better with nothing.' However, one thing the diminutive pop star cannot change is her height, and she admits she has to wear heels to ensure she is seen. She added to Marie Claire magazine: 'With my height I always feel confident if something is below the knee and I'm wearing heels. I wear flats sometimes but not when I'm working, you'd never see me.'

Kylie Minogue has thanked everyone who took part in Sydney's Mardi Gras festival at the weekend. The Australian singer, who was the headline act at the 34th annual gay and lesbian parade, performed a medley of classic hits such as 'Wow', 'It's In Your Eyes', 'All the Lovers' and 'Locomotion' on stage surrounded by a troupe of dancers at 2am. Afterwards, Minogue wrote on her Twitter page : "ThkU THANK YOU @SydneyMardiGras & Mardigrasland... YOU were amazing... I am #happytiredwiredrelievedamazedgrateful (sic)." She later added: "Still simply cannot believe the amount of people who were in or helped create the K25 float," and posted a photo of her stage outfit. According to The ABC , organisers said that over 9,000 people dressed in sparkly costumes and uniforms marched in the parade, while thousands more watched the procession along Oxford Street. Many of the floats at this year's Mardi Gras campaigned for Australia t

Feathers, sequins and red bulls have been cleared from the streets of Sydney. But the organisers of this year's Mardis Gras say the sparkle lives on. 'We are a very proud community this morning,' said festival CEO Michael Rolik. He thanked the almost 10,000 people who took part in the parade of 134 floats. Pop princess Kylie Minogue won a special mention for making the trip down under, with the K25 float of more than 130 dancers paying homage to the singer and her 25-year career in the music industry. 'It was just one of a myriad of amazing entrants that made this year's parade one of the most exhilarating we've ever seen,' Mr Rolik said. 'Kylie's visit is a very special gift to Sydney this year and our K25 float was a way of returning that love back to her.' Despite 13 arrests, police were also pleased with the night. More than 1000 officers patrolled the city while others elected to be part of the entertainment. Assistant NSW Police Commissione

Sunday Mar 4 2012 Kylie Minogue prefers to wear a light foundation when going about her day-to-day life. The Australian star piles on make-up when she is on stage or at personal appearances, so in her personal life she takes things easier. There are certain products she always tries to find the time for though. "Depending on how I'm feeling and how my skin is, I might just put on a little bit of concealer where I need it," she explained to Company magazine. "YSL Touche clat is still one of my favourites. I really like the concealer from By Terry, too - the make-up line of the woman who created Touche clat. If I use foundation, I try and use quite a light one, like Fresh Face Luster. I wear their blusher too (blush makes a huge different to your face), then mascara and, if I've got time, I fill in my eyebrows a bit." Asked about the products she couldn't live without, Kylie has a clear frontrunner. She loves the face and body foundation created by MAC and

The pop princess, 43, who was guest of honour for last night's 35th annual parade in Sydney, wore the exotic headgear and dazzling costume. No doubt Kylie felt she should be so clucky, clucky, clucky ... to be there.
