Minogue terrified of movie auditions

Pop superstar Kylie Minogue says she's "terrified" of auditions because she usually blows her chance.

The former Neighbours star says she was delighted to be offered the chance to star in French filmmaker Leos Carax's dark drama Holy Motors after a mutual friend suggested her for the part.

Minogue tells Britain's Empire magazine, "I'm spoiled now. I didn't audition. I'm so terrified of auditions anyway that I normally blow them.

"Leos knew pretty much nothing about me, except a duet I did with Nick Cave. It was a very human leap of faith he took."
