Appearing on The Late Late Show with Kylie Christmas collaborator James Corden, she was asked if she had ever been to a drag show in light of her large LGBTI+ fan base.

“I have! I was the least Kylie of all the Kylies,” she told Corden, explaining she was dressed as a “hippie”, having been to The Lemonheads concert before heading to the show.

“I didn’t know I was going to end up in this gay club on drag night, so I wasn’t in ‘full flight,” she added.

“I need to make a bit more of an effort next time.”

The anecdote sounds similar to a now famous tale from fellow icon Dolly Parton, who told said on US TV is 2012 that she too lost a contest to look like herself.

“I just over-exaggerated – made my beauty mark bigger, the eyes bigger, the hair bigger, everything,” Parton told Nightline.

I got the least applause.”
