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?

If I had her wealth and access to personal trainers, beauticians etc. I could probably look 30 years younger 😄 But, good for her, I'm glad she's still doing well after her illness a few years ago.

sciaticafanatica · 05/12/2025 19:16

she looks fantastic and if I had money I would definitely be getting the number for her surgeon

Sunshineo · 05/12/2025 19:16

She’s gorgeous.

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

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!

FancyBiscuitsLevel · 05/12/2025 19:19

She’s been having good work done for a long old time. She’s just not allowed herself to get old then fix it. And she still looks recognisably the same woman who was in Neighbours back in the day. If you’re going for work, get whoever does hers.

She has also always stayed a consistent weight and not had children, the worry of children is a big contributer to ageing.

GingerBeverage · 05/12/2025 19:24

She’s not had kids.

No kids and no partner (that I know of at mo) loads of money and Botox is my guess ! Edited to say being very petite and short helps too (clutching at straws here lol) I do genuinely like her

somanysugababes · 05/12/2025 19:25

Yes my friends without children haven’t aged as much as the rest of us who have. Also, a lot of filler and Botox. I actually don’t think it looks that good, sometimes she looks a bit facially immobile.

Scrabsqueak · 05/12/2025 19:25

She also had breast cancer. Life hasn’t been easy, but she does have the money to help with some signs. I suspect good genes and a healthy lifestyle have helped.

Dontlletmedownbruce · 05/12/2025 19:26

I watched an audience with her a year or so ago. Teen ds came in and watched for a minute and I said i was her original fan, her debut album was my first album. He did a double take then asked me how many years old the recording was. I said it was current and he was gobsmacked. He kept repeating how can SHE be older than YOU, I eventually got annoyed with him and told him to stop going on about it.

Jeronnemo · 05/12/2025 19:27

She looks absolutely incredible. Loads of people have work done by the very best surgeons and still don't look as good as her. She's won the looks and ageing lottery.

Muffsies · 05/12/2025 19:30

Nevermind that, she's shagged JCVD. Lucky cow.

3678194b · 05/12/2025 19:31

I did read that as well as fillers in the 1990s she also had a nose job, teeth done and maybe her chin.

Dontlletmedownbruce · 05/12/2025 19:32

Whatever about her face, that body can only be achievable by lifetime of exercise and good diet. She has worked very hard all her life and deserves to look amazing.

A few years ago women used to get a bit nervous whenever I was around their husbands or boyfriends (I really don't know why as I had absolutely no interest in their cruddy old partners). Nowadays they're really blasé about it because I am older and have gained weight (weight is so ageing, I find). I haven't seen Kylie but I am guessing she is very thin and petite.

I thought a few years ago, she looked a bit ‘done’ and slightly odd as a result. But now, whatever she’s had done or fixed or lifted, it’s completely natural looking.

She's the exception that's going to become the rule for aging or you're going to look haggard in comparison. I don't like it but don't know what the answer to it is. I suppose it will be yet another thing dividing us...

LemonDrizzleKay · 05/12/2025 19:35

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

3678194b · 05/12/2025 19:37

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.

LemonDrizzleKay · 05/12/2025 19:37

She looks great. Her figure is lovely. And that dress really suits her. I love it. When I lose weight I am going to get me a dress like that.

However I don't know how they subject themselves to all that treatment. I hate the idea of having needles stuck into my face. No way. I would rather grow old (dis)gracefully.

Intrigued I can’t see what she looks like

Chemo kind of denied her the chance, to be fair.
