Kylie Minogue has turned radio presenter as she recorded a tribute to one of her favourite singers. The Aussie chart star is hosting an appreciation of jazz legend Blossom Dearie to be broadcast later this week. She popped along to the BBC Radio 2 studios to record her programme Kylie On Blossom, which will be broadcast on Thursday. Dearie was a well-known figure on the cabaret circuit of New York, Paris and London in the 1950s and 1960s, and Kylie has often cited her as an influence. The two singers met shortly before US-born star Dearie died in 2009, at the age of 84. Kylie said: I love Blossoms voice. Its that combination of fragility and strength that seems to be a perfect reflection of her personality. She may have been petite but she knew how to look after herself. Her storys fascinating and I hope that the listeners will be as inspired as I was to discover more about her life and her music. Her programme is being broadcast by Radio 2 on Thursday at 10pm.

The stars of The Inbetweeners have said that they are "definitely" keen for Kylie Minogue to film a cameo appearance after being presented with an award by the singer at the British Comedy Awards.

Speaking about the prospect of more Inbetweeners in the future, the cast said that "there's nothing specific on the table at the moment".

She said: "I like to express myself with fragrance. Everyone loves the experience of buying a perfume and how that can you make you feel, so to have the opportunity to create my own was fantastic. I went to the factory in Barcelona where they make it. They let me off wearing a hairnet, though. Everyone else had to wear one, I just flounced around in my Dolce & Gabbana pink mini dress - as you do in a factory! I like to pick a scent depending on my mood. I love Dazzling Darling because it feels sort of seductive and grown up." Kylie, 42, also says it's important to make sure you carry three essential cosmetics around wit...

The singer says it's important to have a break from wearing cosmetics as it allows the skin to breath, although she admits it's not always easy. She said: "I often go without make-up, but these days it does depend on the paparazzi situation. They used to use camera film and weren't so in-your-face, but now it's just all high-definition and sometimes you just know it isn't going to be good. My secret is a top knot and sunnies!" Kylie says she tries to stay true to her own style and not be influenced by trends. She told Britain's more! magazine: "When I think of timeless style icons like Marilyn Monroe or Audrey Hepburn, I wonder how they would have coped with the pressure of today's world, where very few months there's a different trend.

Kylie Minogue thinks about the paparazzi situation before deciding to step out sans make-up. The Australian songstress is sometimes pictured out and about fresh-faced, which is a nice change from her thick stage make-up. Kylie loves leaving home without applying cosmetics, but often thinks about how shes going to be pictured beforehand. I often go without make-up, but these days it does depend on the paparazzi situation, she explained.

Now is the season, it seems, of live-album stocking-fillers, themost flamboyant of which and, it must be noted, the most winsomefiller of those stockings is this 2-CD/DVD package of Kylie'sAphrodite Les Folies stage show, recorded at the O2 Arena. You can certainly see where your ticket money has been spent, and sadly it's not on the music so much as the staging, with the introductory palaver of smoke and mirrors and corps de dance designed to flaunt the sheer grandiosity of its Parthenon set even before Kylie herself appears, reclining on a giant clamshell. The wispy silken tunics worn by she and her dancers emphasise the "classical" theme, though as the punchy opener "Aphrodite" segues via a brief harp entracte into "The One", it seems odd that the audience should get so excited by such languorously inactive dance steps more a slight wafting of arms and legs than actual dancing, designed presumably to allow her to actually sing rather than rel...
