To be annoyed with Kylie Minogue?

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?

I always think she looks like a child in her body and not a women

don’t agree she’s beautiful

I once mistook her for a child. Admittedly she did have her back to me and this was about 25 years ago. She is tiny, minuscule frame and seemed barely 5ft.

She’s not had kids.

Op should point that out to the errant child🤣👍

Oh god yeah, I'd forgotten about the duet with Nick Cave and fling with MH. Good for her. That's the sort of finding myself phase I'd whole heartedly welcome.

I was in the Danni Minogue fanclub as a kid but then I have always been an awkward bugger. It was mainly her punky Home and Way character I think. Must have been, because I can't recall a single song.

Honestly, hop on YouTube and take a look at the video for Dannii’s version of Hakuna Matata. What was she thinking 😂

OrangeOzzy · 05/12/2025 20:42

Just looked her up on instagram. She does look fantastic! I was a young child when she first became really famous and now she looks younger than me.

You haven’t seen Kylie…?!!

Not for a while until checking her out on the One Show tonight.

I love her but she’s never been a strong singer.

Show quote history

Having been to her most recent tour I’d have to disagree. She’s clearly worked very hard on her vocal training and it showed.

For looking so good.

Sorry. That wasn't obvious. People here get their knickers in a twist about how other women look, like they're being oppressed by the patriarchy when another woman chooses to prioritise her appearance.

I'm a bit slow. 🤣

ErlingHaalandsManBun · 05/12/2025 20:34

I saw her on something yesterday and looked at her and actually told her to 'fuck off' 😂😂Doesn't help that my DH has a massive crush on her 🙄

TheMateofOphelia · 05/12/2025 20:33

She's gorgeous inside and out. I love her ❤️

CombatBarbie · 05/12/2025 20:33

Pretty much the same as Jennifer Aniston, no kids etc. Although Jennifer seems to be ageing more sympathetically to her actual age than Kylie. There's reasons they both have huge gay and fem crush fan bases.

Genevieva · 05/12/2025 20:31

Those people never look that good in real life and, if they go too far, like Madonna, they destroy their appearance.

Doggielovelouie · 05/12/2025 20:30

Just looked her up - she looks very worked on to me

the best plastic surgery I’ve seen is Toyah Wilcox - but through the tv

YouJustLikeToLetYourselfDown · 05/12/2025 20:30

She looks great, but she doesn’t look 30! She looks like a well groomed woman in her late 40s. Shes attractive, petite and keeps her hair in a ‘younger’ style which helps her look younger, but facially she doesn’t look 30.

I’m pretty sure Kylie wouldn’t want to swap with you either, she certainly isn’t Miss average following the herd.

Ah, ok. I'm Scottish so the two words sound completely different to me.

Show quote history

I did wonder actually

Justwanttobebythesea · 05/12/2025 20:28

I thought she looked good. Def a facelift to get that tight jawline. Being petite also helps her youthful appearance. Although I do prefer the celebs who look good with signs of ageing e.g SJP, Emma Thompson, Kate Winslett but Kylie has always traded off that cutesy girlie look

ranoutofquinoaandprosecco · 05/12/2025 20:28

I think she looks fab and age appropriate, I’m also a breast cancer survivor (9 years younger than Kylie) and hope I look like her in a few years!

BatchCookBabe · 05/12/2025 20:26

She is gorgeous, and vibrant, and lovely, with a luminous smile, and a pretty face, but she doesn't look 30. 😂

I can only surmise that you're joshing. She looks around 50, and has had some 'help' to not look her age, although it's quite subtle as she looks 'normal' and still looks like her.

She's lovely, and she looks younger than 57, but only 7-8 years younger. Everyone looks their age within 7-8 years either side, when you look at them properly/closer...

Princess Kylie. I love her so much.

Tigerbalmshark · 05/12/2025 20:22

I personally think Mariah is looking better than her - Mariah’s round face means the filler looks quite natural

Do some people really not understand that the OP is joking? Note to self put LIGHT-HEARTED in your thread title to save all the 🙄 coming your way next time @GumFossil .

Bless their hearts. Life can be tough when you don’t have a sense of humour.

No kids. No husband.

@SL2924 And that is a problem because?
Are people like Kylie and Jennifer Aniston less than? (Not to mention countless other non-famous people). I thought we strove for choices.

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.

This.

Have you ever seen a 30 year old op? 😂

She's absolutely looking good for her age but on no planet does she look anywhere near 30!
