Pop Princess Kylie Minogue is a girl after my own heart. She has lashed out at X Factor judge Louis Walsh this week and called his jibes at her sister Dannii “pathetic.” Well we all know that wit and quick thinking are not Louis’ strong points!

“I think it makes it [hard] for her when she gets Louis Walsh’s rather pathetic jibes – one of which is she hasn’t had a hit record,” she told Elle.

“That’s not true. He has no idea where she’s come from. No idea. And neither does England. And that’s quite hard.

“She was on TV every week from seven years old. I’m just so proud of my sister and it annoys the hell out of me when comparisons between us are made in an unfavourable way to her.”

Minogue added that constant reports that Dannii and fellow judge Cheryl Cole didn’t see eye to eye were “so cheap”.

“We all know there were issues between Sharon and my sister. But I don’t think there were any between her and Cheryl,” she said.
