Kylie

Growing old can be a challenge as brain cells, confuse not just names, but birthdays, anniversaries and probably how much money a beer used to cost. But back in the day when pop was dominated by a threesome who talked of a Brit Motown, but never quite made it to shorten Motor to Mo, althouhgh it was probably a case of shortening Scooter to Scoo in global significane and still never made it.

But through the factory production came Kylie. A disposable poppet riding fame of a soap without attitude but plenty of accent.

And then in a matter of years, she traded polo necks for low cut, and rara skirts were redesigned to shorts that tested stiching and to lycra that came with a warning about parental guidance. And became an icon.....known by a first name. Poppet was a pop icon.

Still going strong, too.
