Michael Hammond was caught posing as a security guard at Windsor Castle, spending more than an hour hanging around the grounds before being arrested.

Dannii Minogue was recently at the Hammersmith Apollo watching sister Kylie unveil her new album ’Body Language’.

Dannii sat next to Kylie’s French boyfriend Oliver Martinez, and they both watched as Kylie started her show being lowered towards the audience sitting on a black girder. The invited audience consisted of special guests such as Will Young, Mis-Teeq, Brian Dowling and over-excited competition winners!

Dannii’s Neon Nights has just been released over in the States, and is apparently doing very well as a dance track over there. So both sisters have something to smile about!

Dannii was a ’total pain’ - 03/11/03
Although now great friends, big sis Kylie said that she thought Docklands resident Dannii was a ’total pain in the neck’ when they were kids...

Kylie was speaking to a German magazine Brigittte, and she said that she used to hate sharing a bedroom with her younger sister. She said: "Dannii was a total pain in the neck. At one point I’d just had enough and decided that the room had to be divided up.

"Our parents put a wardrobe between the two halves of the room as a dividing line. But the stupid thing was that it could be opened from both sides, which meant that we annoyed each other all over again.

"We fought because I wanted to have my clothes to myself and Dannii always stole the coolest things out of the wardrobe. She just had fun taking my things."

Dannii also told Brigitte magazine that she used to fight with Kylie when they were young: "We really used to swear at each other. As kids we used to fight over every centimetre of our room."

But she added that now they got on well, saying: "My sister and I have the same filthy sense of humour."

Biography

1971 was a special year for the Minogue family as on October 20th Dannielle Jane was born to a family that already consisted of big sis Kylie and big brother Brendan. Dannii Minogue always wanted to be famous - she was taking dancing and singing lessons from an early age and the hard work paid off when she was rewarded with a role in the Australian soap Skyways - at age seven!

Sister Kylie was also planning to be famous so dad Ron and former ballet dancer mum Carol were probably quite relieved that Brendan didn’t fancy a life in front of the cameras. Kylie got a role in The Sullivans, and Dannii joined her on the show that same year.

But it was Dannii who was emerging as the early star of the family - in 1982 age only 11 she joined the case of Young Talent Time which made her a household name up and down the country. YTT was a showcase for talented youngsters - who could sing, dance and even act a scene or two. Dannii’s gift for singing made sure she stood out - and she featured on the YTT album covering a Madonna track - which paved the way to more singing success.

At a ripe old age of 17 Dannii left Young Talent Time and decided to pursue her acting skills in a variety of different roles. She also released a fashion collection as she designed some of her YTT outfits - anyone see the clip of her wearing something like a turquoise layered dress? Well - this was the eighties so the fashion collection called ’DANNII’ sold out in ten days.

In 1989 Dannii must have felt on top of the world. She was signed as a music artist, she was nominated for a Logie Award, her role on Home and Away as bad girl Emma Jackson was very popular and her debut single - Love and Kisses sold over 60,000 times. But the nineties proved to be a bit more fickle. She left Home and Away to be a pop star, starred in a film called Secrets - anyone remember it? But an alleged Play Boy pose and marriage and divorce to Julian McMahon was what mainly topped the nineties about Dannii - although she began the climb back to the top of the charts in 1997 with songs such as ’All I Wanna Do’ and ’Disrememberence’

Dannii’s music veers into more dance then commercial pop - as her latest infectious tune ’Put the Needle on it’ seems to show. Dannii continues to enjoy pursuing her varied career - singing, acting, praised theatre roles such as Esmerelda in The Hunchback of Notre Dame - yet she does not attract the same media coverage as Kylie so can enjoy having a more discreet private life - but at any time she can step out into the limelight! Now that surely is the best combination!

Dannii currently lives in the Docklands area.
