Kylie Minogue Used To Be Less Popular Than Dannii
Dannii Minogue told the Mail on Sunday’s Night and Day magazine that initially it was her sister Kylie Minogue that hated the fact that her younger sister was more popular than her because she starred in ‘Young Talent Time’, one of Australia’s most popular television shows. “You couldn’t get more famous than being on that show.

She didn’t want to be defined by me.”
