Kylie Minogue has celebrated her 25th year in pop music - and her birthday - with an Outstanding Contribution Award.
The star, who turned 44 on Monday, was presented with the title by Scissor Sisters frontman Jake Shears at the Glamour Women Of The Year Awards.
Kylie, said of her award: "I don't know how I ended up here when I started out in dungarees (in Neighbours) pretending I could fix a car. I nearly blew up my first car as I didn't realise it had water and oil and all that stuff."
She added that she "hoped to become a better woman. Like my grandma. She's really my icon. I'd like to dedicate this to my grandma and mother".
Although it's difficult to pinpoint just one area in which Kylie has made an outstanding contribution - music, acting, fashion, fragrance; the pintsized popstral is a whirlwind of multi-talent, wrapped up in an undeniably-adorable package. Thought of as a national treasure despite her Aussie roots (if anyone's an honorary Brit, it's Kylie!), she boasts 33 Top Ten UK singles, seven UK No.1s, record sales in excess of 68million, and two further GLAMOUR trophies after being named Entrepreneur and Woman Of The Year at the 2009 awards.
We've been celebrating plenty of our favorite artists and actors on their birthdays recently, but hey -- we can't help that so many kickass, gay-ass superheroes were born in May! Since I spent Memorial Day chilling out, I'm only now getting to the birthday of the unfailingly fabulous, intelligent, and cool Kylie Minogue. She turned 44 on monday, and thus, we must pick 44 things we love about the Aussie superstar, her amazing career, and her cheeky pop songs. Somehow the woman remains underrated among worldwide pop superstars, though I find her irrepressible coolness totally supreme. Twenty-five years into Ms. Minogue's career, I honestly refuse to get her out of my head. Let's count.
1. Her darling/hilarious soap opera past on Australia's Neighbours
5. Her defense of her soap opera past: "It's not supposed to be Gone With the Wind!"
6. She played a gay nerd hero -- Cammy from the video game Super Street Fighter II -- in the beloved, wretched movie adaptation Street Fighter. She even suplexed a bad guy!
7. Somehow she topped the horribleness of Street Fighter with her next movie appearance, Bio-Dome. <3
8."Especially For You," her fantastic, cheese-tastic duet with Neighbours alum Jason Donovan
9. Her moody '90s album Impossible Princess is a gay cult classic.
22. My vote for the greatest Kylie single, "Spinning Around," and its crazy list of songwriters that includes two American Idol judges: Kara DioGuardi and Paula Abdul. Mind blown?
23.
24. The ethnically confounding "Cowboy Style." It's Far Eastern! It's Irish! It's... cowboy! It is awesome.
28. The eerie, funereal version of "CDYOOMH" she performed with PS22
29. The bawdiness of her TV special The Kylie Show and the kickass performance of her glorious prude anthem "Got to Be Certain." Louis secret: "Got to be Certain" is the most played song on my iTunes. It is ABBA-licious and secretly saucy, darlings. I am not sorry.
30. Her cute way of brandishing a Grammy (for Best Dance Recording, "Come Into My World")
Now this is the way to CELEBRATE Kylie's Birthday and her 25th year in music. Mr. Matias Segnini has released his new masterpiece! "K25 Remixes Compilation" A compilation of over 25 Remixes, Extendeds and Instrumentals. Please enjoy a Preview of his AMAZING Kylie re-works...

Watch Kylie Minogue's first live performance of "Timebomb" which was broadcast live on The Voice UK last night:
and promos for the show:
Kylie's Number One Video, 'Timebomb' continues to break sales records Worldwide, including the USA!
After less than two days of sales, Kylie Minogue’s brand new single “Timebomb” has charted at an impressive No. 31 in the United Kingdom. If I calculated correctly, the song, which was written by Karen Poole, Matt Schwartz and Paul Harris, is Kylie’s 48th UK top 40! I imagine that her performance of the song on The Voice UK will push the song even higher!
Thing’s aren’t looking so bad over here in the United States either. The song managed to reach No. 21 on the iTunes pop chart, and the video reached the top of the music video chart.
“Timebomb”, which is out now in the United States via iTunes, is part of a year of special events to celebrate K25 – Kylie’s 25th year in the music business. So what’s next from the Australian pop princess? Well, Kylie will release a new hits package, The Best of Kylie Minogue, in the United States on June 19, 2012 via EMI. A Special Edition CD/DVD will also be made available, with the DVD featuring all the accompanying videos. Unfortunately, “Timebomb” will not be featured on the album.
