Beating together

He's lovely, but I wish he'd shave that beard off.

"When I found out that gay marriage was illegal in Australia, I was astounded.

"I simply can't fathom on any level, whether it's moral or religious or anything, that I have the right to get married and to marry the person that I love and that somebody else doesn't because of their sexual orientation.

"We will not get married until this law has passed in Australia".

These are the words of Kylie Minogue's fiancé Joshua Sasse, launching the "Say I Do Down Under" marriage equality campaign.

Further proof - if ever any were needed - why we all adore Kylie (and her man..!).

It also provides us an opportunity - as if we needed an excuse - for a fab "Kylie moment". It's Two Hearts:

Kylie Minogue - 2 Hearts

Wonderful.

Sweetie, darling

It's all rejoicing in the Gay World!

Our Princess Kylie Minogue has gone and got herself engaged to hunk-with-silly-beard Joshua Sasse - and made an official announcement in The Telegraph.



It's the 70th birthday today of one of our fave actresses here at Dolores Delargo Towers, Miss Benda Blethyn, star of the magnificent Secrets and Lies:

London Fashion Week is underway. And, with their fingers on the pulse as always, Eddie and Patsy were in the thick of it. All in a good cause, of course - the first trailer for the forthcoming Ab Fab movie has arrived!

Absolutely Fabulous movie teaser

Takes one's mind off the miserable bloody London weather today, I suppose.

Totty of the Day

With grateful thanks to the lovely Marc at Deep Dish blog, I think a little half-naked-totty-and-Kylie combo is just what we need to keep us sane as we continue to suffer the slings and arrows of this first week back in the office...

Kylie Minogue - Off With His Shirt

The gentleman whose clothing removal is so forcefully demanded by the Regal Persona is actually Joshua Sasse, who is Our Princess's real-life squeeze!

Who could blame her, hipster beard or no hipster beard?
