Mouth-Off 1.27: Kylie Minogue: A Showgirl on Tour SPECIAL FEATURE interview with Jay Hoffman

For the season FINALE of Mouth-Off we will be giving you a two-part special feature about everyone’s favourite gay icon KYLIE MINOGUE. As you may know, if you listened to the previous Mouth-Off episode (where I interviewed author QUENTIN HARRISON); I have recently finished a book all about Kylie. It is called STICK OR TWIST: KYLIE MINOGUE ALBUM BY ALBUM and is being published by Pen and Sword Publishers late next year (2024). I am also currently in the process of writing the follow up book, KYLIE MINOGUE: A SHOWGIRL ON TOUR. To coincide with these projects and to celebrate PRIDE MONTH, I chatted with my good friend, sometimes music collaborator and “fellow gay”, JAY HOFFMAN. Jay suggested we do a review of the concert openers from all of Kylie’s tours, so we did, and we recorded our chat. This is part one, we hope you enjoy. #PADAMPADAM.
