She’s on the One Show. My son looked up her age as he didn’t believe she could be pushing 60. She looks 30. What the heck?

She does look amazing! A lot of factors at play, but certainly she’s worked hard at her diet and exercise to be in such good shape. I’m sure she has had work done and it’s unusually good.

Jean-Claude Van Damme. They had an affair during the filming of Street Fighter.

There was me thinking Jason CV Donovan - I dont remember those middle initials BlushBlush

Kylie is amazing. Sister Danni is 50 plus and also looks good.
Must be in the genes. Plus a bit of work. Their mother is 80.
i do like Kylie.

A few bitter sounding comments about her not having kids/the worry of kids to age her.

Cancer robbed her of the choice.

Good for her for beating cancer and looking so beautiful, I hope she enjoys every single day of her life.

Absolutely

I thought you were going to say you were annoyed with her for fucking her face up! I think she looks bloody awful. Her face looks postively plastic.

I’m the first to comment on bad work, but I honestly think she looks completely fantastic. I can’t see anything plastic or fucked-up.

I saw her at Wembley once

Still relevant, still classy, still making good music and putting on a good show apparently - a friend saw her in Hyde Park I guess two years ago. Love her. And yes, she looks fabulous and most importantly, healthy.

I'm wondering who Troy is?

Kylie is definitely not a horrible person. My cousin worked with her a good few years ago and said she's lovely and very kind.

My cat who died from hypertropic cardiomyopathy. The Litter Tray helped me through his illness and premature death aged 5 in 2015.

No kids. No husband.

She has never been the best vocalist but by fuck she has something. I have been a fan since the cheesy days when you got slated for liking her. I don’t know what it is that gave her the longevity, but she can sing, sure she isn’t a Whitney or Mariah but she has a decent enough voice to have given her a massive career. Her fan base is so diverse, she is an absolute icon. She looks incredible and has obviously worked hard to remain as healthy as possible. Money helps of course!

She has a mahoosive gay fan base

She has always taken care of herself, but don't discount the fact that those people in her World, have the best cooks, personal trainers, Doctors etc. They can afford the finest, organic food. I highly doubt she fills herself with poor quality grub!

You are not going to see Kylie battling it out at the yellow sticker fridge in Asda! Part of her job is to look as good as possible and given her resources she will have the best of everything. I really like her, not her music especially but her whole personna. I wish she would write her autobiography, she has an interesting life.

Is it my ears or does her voice sound bad? (I can't bitch about her looks, I've got to bitch about something!)

Why do you have to bitch about something?

Just my opinion and obviously no reflection on her character. I do find it disappointing that so many women bow to pressure to look 'youthful'. They don't look younger IMO, they look like older women desperately trying to pretend they're not middle aged and older. They're just perpetuating the idea that older women are useless. Still, I do understand it though, and it's not her job to be anything for anyone else.

Def go for Mh over Jcvd

There’s no way Kylie is a horrible person!

I very much doubt she's an awful person. JCVD is also lovely, if a little bit mental.

TroysMammy · 05/12/2025 19:46

I'm the same age as Kylie, just a bit shorter and petite. I've never had kids or fillers and on a good day don't look my age (I've been told). I can't sing though and I doubt it's our Welsh genes either.

I'm wondering who Troy is?

Kylie is definitely not a horrible person. My cousin worked with her a good few years ago and said she's lovely and very kind.

I've got no reason to like or dislike her, though as a child I was a fan when she started her solo career. I did read many times she's not a particularly nice person and doesn't have any friends. Which is sad but don't know how true that is.

Been a fan almost 40 years and this is the first time I have ever read this.

AngelicKaty · 05/12/2025 19:51

GumFossil · 05/12/2025 19:17

My son said ‘she’s 5 years older than YOU! with incredulity. Marvellous.

You should have said to your DS "Yes dear, having kids ages you prematurely!" 😂😂😂

Tigerbalmshark · 05/12/2025 19:50

Oh come on she doesn’t look 30 years younger! Fifties with a lot of work done - she has that Fox News anchor look. I like her music a lot but she doesn’t look like a 30 year old in any way.

Kylie is just gorgeous

When she was with Michael Hutchence, she suddenly oozed sexiness.
