Kylie Minogue courts her gay fan base

» Gay friendly

The former Neighbours star opened the two-hour show with her pop anthem Better the Devil You Know, balancing a Marge Simpson-style feather crown on her head while squeezed into a sequinned corset with huge tailfeather.

And if that isn’t camp enough, the concert includes a segment which pays homage to New York’s notorious gay bath house era - near-naked male dancers shower on stage while Minogue (in a black lingerie-style body suit) straddles gym equipment to sing her hit, Red Blooded Woman.

The gay-o-meter keeps firing with a surprise inclusion of her Pet Shop Boys collaboration In Denial (about a gay man’s coming out) and her own uber-camp Your Disco Needs You, plus a cover of Judy Garland’s signature song, Somewhere Over the Rainbow, performed while balanced on a moon in a ball gown.
