Kylie Minogue Defends Olivier Martinez After Post Split Attacks

In reaction to the negative media attention Olivier Martinez has received since announcing he and Kylie Minogue had ended their relationship, the Australian singer posted the following message to fans on her official web site on Friday (February 9): “As for the treatment Olivier has received of late, I can only reiterate that he simply does not deserve the kind of harassment or vitriol to which he has been subjected. For someone whom I have enormous love and respect, and communicate with, it is so grossly unfair: to demonize an honest man. I would ask of you, my fans, to show your support for both Olli and myself as a separation is never easy.”
