New Album to be the sexiest of all time

Kylie Minogue has promised fans her new album will be the sexiest pop album of all time.

The 38-year-old Spinning Around hitmaker, who completed her Showgirl - The Homecoming tour in January, has enlisted the help of unknown Scottish writer Calvin Harris.

She says: "I've already been in the recording studio doing some demos. The songs are amazing.

"I promise it will be the sexist album ever."

Minogue's next album will be her tenth release. The singer made her comeback in November 2006 after battling breast cancer and recently split from her boyfriend of four years, actor Olivier Martinez.

Kylie's new H&M Job

Following in the footsteps of Material Girl Madonna, Kylie Minogue has signed up to model swimwear for Swedish retailer H and M.

The company says the collection, entitled H and M loves Kylie, will form part of the group's main swimwear range and contain 15 "bohemian-chic" styles.

Oh and apparently 10 per cent of sales revenue from the collection will go to charity!

In other Miss Minogue news, Sydneyites should keep their eyes peeled for a float dedicated to the pop princess in tonight's Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras Parade.

Stolen H&M Kylie pics offered to newspaper

Thieves have tried to sell stolen pictures from a fashion shoot involving Australian pop star Kylie Minogue, a British newspaper reports.

The Sun said it turned down an offer from a man selling the swimwear photos for Stg50,000 ($A125,000).

"A shadowy figure called Franco said we should fly someone to Pula in Croatia to collect them," the paper said.

The Sun tipped off the singer's people, who apparently gave the paper an exclusive preview photo of her in a bikini, gold sandals and wrapped in a sarong.

The shots, taken on a Mexican beach, are to promote a clothing range called H&M loves Kylie.

H&M Preview shot



Can't wait to see the raunchy ones.

Nothing Sarong with me!

BRAVE Kylie Minogue looked fit and stunning at her first modelling shoot since battling breast cancer.

The Aussie singer appeared happy and healthier than ever posing in a bikini and sarong.

And you can see an exclusive preview of the pictures in today's Sun newspaper.

We were given the beautiful photos as a thank-you from Kylie, 38 — after we beat heartless crooks trying to cash in on her modelling comeback.

They contacted us yesterday, hoping to sell STOLEN pictures from the Mexican beach shoot for £50,000. A shadowy figure called Franco said we should fly someone to Pula in Croatia to collect them.

But we immediately tipped off Kylie and the photographers who took the shots for fashion chain H&M.

A spokesman for Kylie — still recovering from her split with French lover Olivier Martinez, 41 — said: “This photoshoot means a lot to her.

“It is incredibly brave of her to pose in swimwear and it is horrible to think someone was prepared to jeopardise that for cash. She and H&M are incredibly grateful to The Sun.”

Kylie had a partial mastectomy and chemo after being diagnosed in 2005. Doctors have given her the all-clear.

H&M said they chose her to model the swimwear as a tribute to her courage.

Last month she completed a comeback tour. Billboards for the “H&M loves Kylie” range go up on April 12. The 15 styles will be on sale in May.
