Artistic journey to the sunshine
TV REVIEW
TOM ADAIR
Tim Marlow on Edward Hopper, Five
Kylie Up Close, Five
Kylie's Greatest Hits, Five
Eastenders, BBC1
No Going Back, Channel 4
. . .
So, thinking of voyeuristic moments, I tuned to last night’s panting frolic with Kylie Minogue. But glued to the tribute, Kylie Up Close, you could see that the simple premise of voyeurism, (watching someone who doesn’t know they are watched) was never likely to arise. Au contraire. Instead what we had was a brainless gasp, providing old Neighbours fans with flashes of pure nostalgia reflecting an era before the flower of Ramsay Street’s innocence shed her petals (and much much more), and made Down Under a term of anatomical cheeky fascination.
Kylie’s netherlands were displayed to best advantage during Kylie’s Greatest Hits - a title you have to pronounce with some care. The Pocket Pouter’s top ten sellers were duly screened, the videos sizzling end to end, with interruptions from Kylie-pundits telling us "K was turned into a dirty little minx by Michael Hutchence", or that the "bum-tastic" star’s sexy strutting was all "tongue in cheek". There, through a spangly cloud of camp, you could see that those who’d lamented the end to Kylie’s acting career were wrong. She had never stopped. She just got hammy.
For those EastEnders fans who’ve developed "gloom dependency syndrome", Kylie’s little pink heaven would be a nightmare. But not half as bad as last night’s horror - Martin and Sonia getting hitched amid unalloyed joy. This must have induced a condition of crisis among the gloomsters that even Kat and Alfie’s marriage could not off-set. The fact that Sonia has married the bloke who killed her fiancé - albeit by accident - sets up the likelihood, sooner or later, of recrimination, gale-force rowing and marital mayhem in the newly-hatched Fowler home. And no doubt there will be heavy outbreaks of Pauline, with increasing squalls of moaning.
On No Going Back there was even more sunshine - enough to make Dracula wince and cancel his Spanish holiday. Almeria was the setting, and this week’s mission-impossible was the task of transforming a goat-house (or something similar) into a guest house in time for the unsuspecting public to make its bookings. But the goat house had no foundations (surprise, surprise). Just like Kylie.

Kylie sues over body parts
By Christian Catalano
June 9, 2004
The owner of pop music's most famous derriere is at the centre of fresh controversy.
Kylie Minogue is again suing Australia's richest man, Kerry Packer, this time over the reproduction of salacious photographs in his raunchy People magazine, including one where the pop diva's head was allegedly superimposed on a nude model.
Lawyers for Ms Minogue's family business KDB Pty Ltd began proceedings in the Federal Court of Victoria yesterday, alleging the Packer empire's magazine business Australian Consolidated Press Publishing breached copyright law by reproducing her image in the January 2003 issue of People.
Some of the images are believed to have been reprinted from Kylie's quasi-biography La, La, La, published in 2002.
Minogue's chief lawyer, Michael Brereton, said: "It relates to a situation where Kylie's head was airbrushed onto the body of a naked woman. The case concerns copyright breach for use of the photos."
ACP sources would not comment on suggestions that the publishing group had tampered with Minogue's image. "There's (been) no mention of anything other than a copyright issue," a spokeswoman said last night.
It is the second time in three years that Minogue has launched legal proceedings against Mr Packer's organisaton. In 2001 the two parties reached a confidential, out-of-court settlement over the singer's claims that ACP had again used her image without her authorisation.
That related to Minogue's image appearing in women's magazine Cleo as part of a two-page promotion of Estee Lauder's Tommy Girl perfume. Minogue said she had only given permission for Cleo to use her photograph to promote her tour of Australia.
It is not known how large Minogue's new damages claim will be.
Yesterday's preliminary directions hearing before Justice Peter Heerey has been set down for further directions on August 10.

My Greatest Mistake: Tim Hulse, Editor of Business Life magazine
Interview by Rebecca Armstrong
08 June 2004
"I'm going to the opening of a new club," says Kylie. "You wanna come with me?" "Love to," I say. Well, you would, wouldn't you? I was working for Esquire magazine and one of my duties was to go out on a "date" each month with a glamorous female celebrity. On this occasion, I'd flown to Paris to have dinner with Kylie Minogue at one of her favourite restaurants. The fact that we shared our table with her personal assistant gives you some idea of how seriously Kylie had decided to treat our "date". My attempts to engage her in any kind of meaningful conversation beyond topics such as her favourite colour met with little enthusiasm on her part and, as the meal progressed, I began to wonder with increasing panic what on earth I was going to write about. When she offered me the chance of going to a club with her, I practically bit her hand off.
Half an hour later we were exiting a taxi in a blitzkrieg of flashbulbs and I allowed myself a tingle of pleasure at the thought that the crowd of assembled onlookers might assume I was Kylie's latest beau. As students of Greek tragedy know, presumptuous thoughts like that can only end in trouble. Inside, we descended some stairs on to the packed dancefloor. Then something terrible happened. Kylie stopped, turned around to face me and began to dance. In fact, the word "dance" barely does justice to the dizzyingly accomplished routine into which she launched. And to make matters worse, everyone around us stepped back to form a circle. They were standing and watching.
Now I've never claimed to be a great dancer and the fact that I suddenly had an audience really didn't help. My feet seemed to be glued to the floor. Nevertheless, I gave it my best shot and sort of wiggled my hips a bit, my arms bent at right angles and clamped to my sides, my face paralysed in a rictus grin. Eventually, the music stopped and Kylie juddered to a halt.
"You're not really a dancer, are you?" she said.
Too true. I made my excuses and left.

LAST month she was supposed to be marrying her French beau in a secret wedding in Western Australia. This month the latest rumour has Kylie Minogue marrying Olivier Martinez at a resort near Uluru.
Her publicist says she's back in England but the rumour persists that she's going to wed the actor in Australia at the exclusive Longitude 131.
A senior resort spokesman denied the rumour but it seems there's something brewing at the outback oasis.
An airport worker confirmed reports that a wedding was in the wind while film star Toni Collette reportedly jetted into town this week.
On Thursday a privately chartered US jet also landed at Connellan airport.
Workmen have been busy rebuilding the resort's luxury accommodation after a freak fire last year destroyed the original award-winning five-star tents overlooking Uluru.
The luxury accommodation is not due to re-open until July 1.
But tension was high at the resort yesterday, with staff under special orders not to speak of the luxury hideaway, priced from $1625 per night per couple.
Resort workers refused to discuss the wedding talk when questioned by a local reporter.
Another employee at the resort-owned service station refused to provide directions to Longitude 131 saying: "Celebrities stay there from time to time."
