DAILY STAR (UK) 25th March 2004:

KYLIE'S RANT IS AN E-HIT [it looks like they took down the website. But a video awith audio of the track is linked below.]

by John Hawkins

A NEW Club song featuring Kylie Minogue blasting a radio DJ who asked her if she had plastic surgery is fast becoming an internet favourite.

The track, So Stupid, is spreading worldwide through e-mail inboxes.

It includes DJ Tony Wrighton repeatedly asking: "Have you had any plastic surgery done?".

This is followed by soundbites from what Kylie thought was an off-air rant.

Kylie, 35, blew her top at the suggestionmade by the manchester-based DJ on Century FM.

"Abrupt"

After the interview was brought to a halt, Kylie - unaware the tape was still running - laid into Wrighton, telling staff : "Could you hear what he was saying ?" "Is he retarded ? I mean is he meant to be kind of funny or what ? I am stunned.

What if it was live ? They shouldn't play any of that. Oh my God."

"I am so shocked. This is stupid.

I gave him another opportunity and he asked: "Have you had any plastic surgery ?"

"Oh my God. I can't help thinking about it."

Kylie is now said to be furious her blast has been leaked on the internet.

[There's a pretty funny video montage with the full track here. They shouldn't play any of that.]
