TV Shows battle for Kylie Minogue

Thursday, November 15, 2007

London (ANI): Popstar Kylie Minogue is the centre of a battle between two popular British shows 'The X Factor' and 'Strictly Come Dancing'. The ITV1 organisers got Kylie to agree to do the December 15 final episode of X Factor, where her sister Dannii is a judge. However, they were furious when they discovered that she had also agreed to do BBC1's Strictly on December 1.

"The shows are so competitive. When X Factor found out about Strictly's plan to get her on the show before them they told Kylie that she either appears on November 24 or not at all," The Sun quoted a source, as saying. "Dannii's trying to stay out of it, but it would mean a lot if Kylie did X Factor." Kylie's spokesman however, would not reveal which show the singer was planning to put an appearance in. "We are in discussions with both shows," he said.
