Kylie Minogue Admits She’s Been Out-Kylied By Drag Queens

It happens to the best of us.

It is one of the commandments of drag that divas past, present, and future may be subjected to impersonation by queens in both appearance and performance. For someone like Kylie Minogue, whose career spans decades, the queens who do it are well polished by now.

During a recent stop on The Late Late Show with James Corden, Minogue dished on the time she had been out-Kylied by a group of drag performers. “I wasn’t in full flight, and I’m tiny,” she said. “So me in a little heapy outfit, standing next to four robust Kylies – it was quite something. So I need to make a bit more effort next time.”

Sharing a couch with Minogue on the show as Benedict Cumberbatch, who shared a bit about the time he dressed in low-rent drag for a good cause. After a handful of laughs Minogue, in the spirit of her new country-infused album, Golden, taught Corden and Cumberbatch a few steps from the line dance of her video for “Dancing.” Watch, below.
