More Kylie rumors

POP princess Kylie Minogue looks set to jet into Wales next month to film a starring role in the Doctor Who Christmas special.
Insiders on BBC One Wales’ hit sci-fi show told WoS the Aussie songstress, whose family hails from Maesteg, has booked herself a suite in a top Cardiff hotel ready for the shoot.
The 39-year-old beauty, who has recently recovered from her battle against breast cancer, has already confirmed she will be appearing on the show, and is one of many big names mooted to materialise in future episodes – including a major Hollywood actor.
But fans of the show’s famous baddies will be left disappointed, as Kylie has already laughed off claims that she is getting ready to play an evil cyberwoman – the mortal enemy of David Tennant’s Doctor.
Last night, a show insider told us: “Kylie will be coming to Cardiff sometime next month. Everything has been arranged, a hotel has been booked and everyone on the set is excited about it.”

Kylie, who is soon set to make a comeback with a new album, can’t wait to get cracking either.
She said: “Yes, it’s true – my gay husband is so excited about it!” – referring to her stylist William Baker, when questioned by a woman’s style mag last month – “But I’m not going to be playing a villain.”
But Kylie’s Welsh fans may not even have to wait a whole month to catch a glimpse of their idol back among her Welsh roots.
A source close to the star hinted she may even be in Wales this week to watch her pal DJ Calvin Harris play a disc-spinning set at the Escape Into The Park dance festival in Swansea’s Singleton Park next Saturday.
The 23-year-old Scottish musician and former supermarket shelf-stacker, whose hit Acceptable In The Eighties recently crashed in to the UK Top 10, has been helping write her new album.
Songs from the record, which has yet to be titled or given a release date, were recently leaked on the internet, much to the delight of fans – Kylie’s last CD Body Language having been back in 2004.
The five-star St David’s Hotel in Cardiff Bay refused to comment on whether Kylie had already booked a room for her Doctor Who stop-over.
A hotel spokeswoman said: “We couldn’t possibly comment.”
