I can’t wait to see Dannii on Piers Morgan’s Life Stories!
I’m a huge fan of both Minogue sisters and I was lucky enough to see Dannii turn on the Harrods lights last night. Dannii is a fantastic woman who has been through a lot and it will be very interesting to see things from her perspective.
Saturday is going to be an amazing night

Great interview i thought. It’s shown Dannii in a whole different light, for instance i didn’t know much about her at all untill now, so i was quick to judge her and i think everyone was. So i liked this interview a lot, now i think i’ll sympathise more with her, if ever something like that Danyl thing comes up again. Hopefully it won’t though
So what was that song that was being played over the video when Louis was fighting with her over the JLS song and she cried?? love to know, it sounds like a symphony, but i’m not sure. What was the name of it?

dannii is a brave girl because she went through the difficulty because kylie had suffered from cancer.
I think that was really brave.
Wish your sister all the best in recovering, Dannii

I had written this acrostic poem for Bruce Forsyth and when watching Piers Morgan today I thought I
ODE TO BRUCE FORSYTH
On this National Poetry Day we try to impart
Dedication of thoughts which is a beautiful piece of art
Excelling in writing verses from the heart
To this very wonderful human being
Ode is a very appropriate thing
Bruce Forsyth is honoured it is said
Remembering all the humour he shared
Unless you experience the laughter he spread
Countless jokes he always shared
Experiencing kindness to show he cared
For all who remember his heart of gold
Obstacles he did not create between young and old
Remarkable character was shown by his kindness
Sincere cords he tried to harness
Young children you must bear in mind
Talent like Bruce’s is hard to find
He tap dances too which helps him unwind
Composed by Grace Coutinho 03.10.07
would give it another try and send the poem

Please see that Bruce Forsyth reads this poem which is an ODE TO BRUCE FORSYTH. When I was a waitress at a golf course, I crossed Bruce Forsyth and his smile captured my memory!
