The Canberra Times is reporting that the National Portrait Gallery’s efforts to whore itself with a Kylie Minogue exhibition have been especially rewarded by the starlet’s cancer diagnoses.

It’s an ill wind that blows no good eh?

a former workmate of mine who was back in oz for a short tdy made a specific request to visit the Kylie exhibition.

so i went as well. im amazed at how tiny she is.

i felt sorry for the staff working there, being subjected to endless loop kylie videos.

I hate and loathe Kylie Minogue & see her as the nadir of Australian music BUT I don’t begrudge the National Portrait Gallery capitalizing on her image. In order to survive artists and arts institutions have to be 10% inspiration and 90% whore. That’s just the way it’s always been I guess… Adios for now Johnny – Tonto
