When Aussie pop diva Kylie Minogue launched her lingerie range "Love Kylie" some months ago, the world's press was disappointed she didn't model the undies herself.
But now the petite songstress seems to have had a change of heart, appearing in a photo shoot to launch "Cheekies", a range of knickers that form part of the collection.
Ironically, the photos have been released just as Kylie's stylist says she is scrapping her sex-kitten image. "Kylie's is the most famous backside in showbiz," said her image guru Will Baker recently. "But I want to take her away from the sex symbol thing now. She loves French sophistication and I think it's perfect for her - especially as she's with Olivier Martinez, a French movie star."
The 35-year-old's penchant for French chic was very much in evidence when she turned out for Karl Lagerfeld's new collection in Paris on Tuesday. But it seems she wanted to take advantage of her perfect posterior just one more time, before turning her back on it for good.
