She spends most of her time in the UK, but Kylie Minogue proved she still calls Australia home at the 2024 Brit Awards on Saturday night.
The 55-year-old music icon, who won the BRITs' Global Icon Award, stunned fans by agreeing to take part in the Australian ritual of drinking alcohol from a shoe during the awards ceremony in London.
Host Roman Kemp convinced Kylie to drink her signature rosé wine from her high heels during an interview with the pop star at their table, saying it would be “wrong” if the couple didn't “follow an Australian tradition.”
“So will Kylie Minogue do a shoey with me at the Brits? If I ask for your shoe, can I do that?” Kemp asked.
Kylie appeared hesitant at first, asking the crowd, “Do I have to do this?” before Kemp held out a pair of black stilettos and filled them with alcohol. D

To prove she's a good sport, the All The Lovers hitmaker clinked her stilettos with the presenter and drank the whole shoe in one gulp.
Later in the evening, Kylie closed the show with a high-energy medley of her most famous hits, with viewers rightly branding her a “legend” after she last performed at the ceremony in 2008.

“Okay, I'm just going to cry with Raye, that's what you did!” said an emotional Kylie as she took the stage.
“You did that. Brits, thank you very much. “I really tried to think hard about what to say tonight, but I knew I couldn't plan anything and I knew it would just be about the emotions.”
“For some of you, it's been a lifetime – 36 years and countless shared experiences, and what really fascinates me is the love of music and connecting with people… I have friends in this room that I've worked with over the years have.” '
