Happy birthday to the Goddess of Pop!
By Vida Lacano
Did you know? Kylie Minogue just celebrated her 47th birthday on Thursday! The Princess of Pop has been in the entertainment business for 36 years, starting off in Australia as a child star with small roles in soap operas until she hit it big when she was cast in the hit 1986 TV show Neighbours. It was the break that propelled her to legit super stardom.
In celebration of this Gemini beauty’s birthday, the INQUIRER POP! Team has rounded up the times the Goddess of Pop showed everyone what sexy means:
1.) That time she rocked a really, really sexy jumpsuit to levels of elegance.

2.) That time she made love for all human beings crazy sexy cool.
Did you know that Kylie Minogue is considered a gay icon? Rufus Wainwright once wrote that Kylie is “the gay shorthand for joy.” Watch All The Lovers and feel that little tug in your heart:
3.) When she made sexercise a thing
Sex and exercise, get it? Only Kylie Minogue gets away with ridiculous but somewhat appropriate portmanteaus like that. Forget about your aerobics and watch Sexercise:
