That’s awkward! Kylie Minogue calls The Killers an ‘indie band’ – despite the Mr. Brightside hitmakers selling over 28million records
Kylie Minogue made an awkward mistake last week while discussing her dream collaborations.
The pop princess, 53, called Mr. Brightside hitmakers The Killers an ‘indie band’ and said she’d love to collaborate with the American rockers.
Speaking to E! about her upcoming Las Vegas residency, Minogue said, ‘I’ve always loved more kind of indie bands, like The Killers’.
Far from indie, The Killers are one of the biggest selling bands of the 21st century, with record sales topping 28million copies worldwide.
The Grammy-nominated rockers, fronted by flashy lead singer Brandon Flowers, are best known for hits like Somebody Told Me and When We Were Young.

In addition to The Killers, Kylie also said that she’d love to work with Rihanna and Beyonce.
‘Most collaborations I’ve done have come to me, so I haven’t had to make that decision. But whoever I work with, I think there’s always something to learn from people I work with,’ she said.
It comes as the singer celebrates her comeback single Padam Padam reaching No. 1 on Billboard’s Dance/Mix Show Airplay Chart this week.
Kylie couldn’t contain her excitement about the feat, sharing a promotional image for her new track on Instagram alongside the news, writing: ‘WOW.’

‘Padam Padam No. 1 U.S. Dance Radio Song!! @Billboard,’ she captioned her post.
The 55-year-old’s new single Padam Padam recently reached a new peak on Australia’s ARIA chart, climbing to No. 19.
It’s the pop star’s first top twenty hit since Timebomb, which peaked at No. 12 back in 2012.
It comes after the addictive track climbed to No. 9 on the UK singles chart.
It’s the first time Kylie has had a top ten hit in the UK since her collaboration with Taio Cruz, Higher, reached No. 8 in the 2011.
