Kylie Minogue

Is she big in the U.S.? I quite frankly have rarely hear about her.

• Only among the gays

• What R1 said. Not sure why, but she's never quite been as popular here - several hits, yes, but not to the level she's loved elsewhere.

• Awful little toad dressed in glitter.

• COLLECTIVE HUGE GAY GASP at R4's BLASPHEMY!!!!!

  Little%20Eva

• Damn, was her Locomotion cover awful, Little Eva might as well have been Aretha in comparison.

• She's had 2 Top 10 US hits, the terrible Locomotion, and "Can't Get You Out Of My Head" in 2001. 3 other songs were marginal Top 40 hits, none since 2001. That's plenty enough for a Britney-level "talent."

• I'm not a Kylie fan but "Can't Get You Out Of My Head" was a great song. It would have been great no matter who sang it. I liked "2 Hearts" too. Most of the other typical-thumpy-disco-diva stuff, I can do without.

• For about a decade there, her records weren't even released in the U.S.

• She's still desperately trying to break into the US market. She even lowered herself to go on Fashion Police, where she dissed Madonna.

• [quote]She's still desperately trying to break into the US market. Eh, not really. If she was that desparate, she would tour here more often. She did two dozen U.S. dates combined in 2009 and 2011. That's it, for her entire career. It's like Robbie Williams. She does well enough elsewhere, it's not worth the time/effort to try and break the U.S., especially when it doesn't seem too interested.

• She's obviously nothing. Threads about me are about 7 times longer.

  Kim%20Carnes

• 25 years of hits in UK and many other countries, with no scandal only a rep for being a hardworking pro. Not really a "Britnany" level star. Much, much more. (Britnany still around in 25 years?!?!?! Not.) Sure she would like to break in the US, but her career is better than most without it.

• I liked "I Should Be So Lucky" when it came out. And she seems very charming and unpretentious.

• Kylie has admitted in the past that breaking the US market is not a big priority for her. It's probably the only country where she can walk around unrecognized, save for Los Angeles and New York where the paps are EVERYWHERE. Besides, she's been in the biz 25 years, and that's a great run for a pop dance star.

• You got your nerve, just because she's fat doesn't make her a bad person. Maybe she just likes food.
