I felt like this was on the cards so nice to see it confirmed.

This obviously had to happen, so glad it has been confirmed now! Hopefully we will also get a Kylie inspired Rusical or runway like they have done with Madonna in the past.

I want Everlasting Night extended mix to feature, that would be my ideal.

I reckon they may be in the same episode.

That'd be kind of waste to be honest.

For a Dannii lipsynch I actually hope for something like Love & Kisses because it's just pure camp and I think Drag Queens could sell it.

For Kylie? I don't know. I think I Was Gonna Cancel (lol) was featured on the US version, so it wouldn't surprise me if they went with something off Disco like Magic.

I'd love dannii to do disrememberence and kylie to do the one or something from Disco ideally celebrate you or say something.

Literally can’t wait for this - it has the potential to be iconic

If they are on together (I'm not sure how it works) they will probably end up doing Kids

I just miss those days when these kind of appearances translated into eventual album sales. Now, it's just that - an appearance on telly!

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever Apr 29 2021, 11:10 AM

Ya I miss those days too for both singles and albums.

Albums get harder and harder to sell.

This! And even when appearances do translate into actual sales for Kylie there is still no chart impact as the lack of streaming cancels out any sales gain.

Yes and I think the multi format trend will come to an end soon, there is only so long fans can and will buy 10+ versions of an album and everyone is at it now too - I think Billie Eilish is on 19 versions of her new album so far and she’s not alone.

Posted by: pippa May 1 2021, 02:24 PM

Multi formats will be short-lived as fans can't afford it especially if they collect from multiple artists.

Pointless addition to the show sadly -

Yeah, it was very disappointing. Obviously nice to see both of them but it was way too short. And not even a lip sync to a Minogue song..

Posted by: tommie May 8 2021, 06:20 PM

It looks like with the show filming in New Zealand all guests will just be seen on a screen, so I guess it's good in that way that this was just their mini debut and if it's renewed they can hopefully be there in person next year. Still odd to waste both the Minogues on one show.
