Ghosts in the Pantry. On Kylie

I love Kylie Minogue.I never liked her during the first charge of Kylie and Jason fever, it happened because of a mixtape with What Do I Bear to Do on it, and I've loved her ever since.There are three myths about Kylie which make me off.Myth 1. Kylie's career was resurrected by her getting her tail out for the lads.Fact: Kylie's arse has been on display since Better the Devil/Step Back in Time.

here was always arse, and sometimes a bit more.That the press suddenly became entranced by her bum is neither here nor there.The woman always wore hot pants.Myth 2. Kylie is not complex.Fact: Kylie began as a bit of a musical puppet, and her press for mastery over her musical and public identity was hard won.She worked tirelessly.She was feted and so put aside, a poster-girl for a sentence and space which others wanted to pretend they'd never been a piece of.During the flow of greatest rejection by the world and music industry Kylie skinned her head and went on a road trip around the USA.From this degree of near-universal derision, Kylie made an amazing step.She saw the problems, she saw what others were doing, she reviewed her by and she accepted it all.If you go in for that class of thing, you could say that she reached a degree of self-actualization.Kylie is in fact a soul who believes and think and thinks, and is cognizant of how her self-awareness becomes problematic for her.In the picture for Did It Again Kylie's different incarnations have a bust-up, as she tells herself off for over-thinking.For me, this was the point where Kylie's historical debts to Madonna (Myth 3) became meaningless and the pupil could get the master.Because Madonna can't do humour.She makes a full straight man and can give the best comedy, but suspicious and charmingly goofy are not qualities she exudes.My final praise of Kylie is that everyone says she is a genuine master and not a cow, and she inspired young women to check their breasts.The end.Oh yeah!Not the end.My anecdote.I forgot the anecdote.Anyway, I listed a Kylie poster on a recycling site and some guy got there first and having got off the ring I decided he didn't appear to wish the poster enough given that other masses were very disappointed, so I phoned him back to wonder whether my Kylie poster was leaving to get a safe enough home, but it turned out it's not for him it's for somebody who truly loves Kylie, even more than I do, so I'm very pleased.
