Dannii Minogue Covers InStyle UK
Posted on July 5, 2010
Dannii Minogue covers the August, 2010 issue of InStyle UK. Dannii, who is pregnant, looks lovely. She talks about how she used Botox to hide her grief when her sister Kylie got breast cancer, how Kylie is a natural with children and her relationship with former rugby player and current model Kris Smith.
On Botox: "When I used Botox for a period, constantly, it was just to hide all the grief I was going through--with what was happening to my sister, then losing my friend. I couldn't even look in the mirror, I was so sad. Now, I'm happy not to have Botox and I don't mind all the expression lines. For 38, I'm not doing too bad."
On Kylie's being better with kids than she is: "The most hilarious thing is that I don't know anything about looking after kids. Even when I'm with my nephews, I look at my brother Brendan and at Kylie like, 'What do I do next?' Kylie is a natural with kids. The last time she was back in Australia, we all went to our family farm. I looked out the back window and I could see her rolling across the grass with our nephew and I thought, 'She just knows what to do.'"
On her boyfriend Kris: "On paper, it shouldn't work. You shouldn't meet 'the one' in a nightclub in Ibiza! He's very calm, very chilled out. Whereas I'm over-motivated and doing too much. He'll say, 'Will you stop doing these things and calm down?' I need that around me. He says things to me all the time that make me go...'That's exactly what I want to hear.' It's a girl's dream, he says the things you want your boyfriend to say. But he doesn't take any s*** from me--he tells me off when I need to be told off."
On having more kids: "I never saw myself as having kids, so now it's happened I'm still in shock. I'm the person who not long ago said, 'No, we're not having kids.' But now I'm thinking, 'Maybe I'll want another one?' I'm looking at Heidi Klum--she's on the red carpet pregnant, has a baby, then she gets pregnant again and has another baby. She manages to be a mother, run a few different companies and produce her own TV show."
