Kylie's 100 Most Amazing Moments Ever!
100
The white hooded jumpsuit from the 'Can't Get You Out Of My Head' video that didn't let you see a knocker but made you think you might. Designed by Fiona Doran and inspired by Grace Jones, the six foot long creation was modified by Kylie herself who insisted the splits at the leg go waist high with cries of "Higher! Higher!" as the stylist made fashion history with a pair of scissors.
99
Singing a rude word in 'Shocked' even though she denies it. There's no way that word is "rocked"!
98
Letting Nick Cave smash her head in with a rock. Australia's two most important musical artistes united for the murder ballad 'Where The Wild Roses Grow', fabulously wrong footing everyone and giving the normally underground-lurking Cave his biggest hit single to date.
97
Shooting a big gun in the movie Street Fighter. Some consider this video game adaptation to be the worst movie ever made but how is that possible when it contains a scene where the Kylster, in her role as action heroine Cammy, wraps her legs round a bad man's neck? She's also handy with a bazooka and makes Jean-Claude van Damme look tall for the first time in his career.
96
Being in Bio-dome. Oh come on, it's really underrated.
95
Releasing one album called Kylie and two albums called Kylie Minogue.
94
Having at least 26 number one singles (though not all in the same country).
93
Dueting on 'If You Were With Me Now' with Keith Washington, a man no one heard of before or since.
92
Being in the actually really good The Henderson Kids playing a character who was prophetically named Char.
91
Being smaller in real life than you would expect, even after every single person who has met her has already told you that she's smaller in real life than you would expect.
90
Being Charlene in Neighbours and making men feel funny. The failing daytime Aussie soap brought in the virtually unknown Ms Minogue to play tomboyish rapscallion Charlene Mitchell and within a week children were bunking off school to watch it. The BBC was forced by law to show it twice a day.
89
Just as Jesus was a humble carpenter, Charlene was just a common mechanic.
88
Charlene's mother was not a virgin but she was Madge Bishop which is probably better.
87
The Delinquents. You get to see a knocker.
86
Making the 2000 Olympics even gayer than when the ancient Greeks used to wrestle in the nude by singing 'Dancing Queen' at the closing ceremony in Sydney. In front of four million viewers and the world's sporting elite, Kylie closed what is now considered to be the best Olympic Games ever, wearing pink feathers while being carried about on a giant flip-flop. And Britain still thinks it has a chance of hosting it!
85
The Kylie bottled water.
84
Speaking in a Dutch accent for her first TV role as Carla on The Sullivans.
83
Her waxwork in Madam Tussauds having smelly breath.
82
Making a Christian man cross when Madam Tussauds hung her waxwork from the ceiling dressed as the angel Gabriel.
81
Descending from the ceiling on an anchor for the 'On A Night Like This' tour.
80
Inadvertently turning down the chance to sing on the Manic Street Preachers' 'Little Baby Nothing' back when they weren't famous, then having them write 'Some Kind Of Bliss' for her when they were.
79
The 'Got To be Certain' shoes.
78
"Remember the old days, remember the O'Jays."
77
Being a Geisha in a Jacuzzi for Towa Tei's 'GBI' video
76
Having tiny ballerinas dance on her hat for the 'Chocolate' video.
