Talking about royalty… Aussie pop princess Kylie Minogue has broken into the UK top 10 with her biggest hit in over a decade after going viral on TikTok. Her dance track Padam Padam – which Minogue says was inspired by French singer Edith Piaf’s song of the same name – has been embraced as a queer anthem during Pride month celebrations around the world. It’s currently at #9 in the UK – and reports say that’s made 55yo Minogue one of 4 women to reach the UK’s top 10 across 5 decades, joining Cher, Lulu and Diana Ross. And as for the word ‘padam’, Minogue said “it’s become a noun, a verb, an adjective” with her Gen Z fans. “It’s taken on a life of its own and I am having the time of my life seeing what people are doing,” Minogue says.
