Well yeah she is,but like with Kylie and Dannii,you'd have to go to London to see her.Due to our low population most Aussie singers have to go to England to make the $$$,just as Aussie actors have to go to the US.

Is it true you Aussies occasionally elect conservatives to something down under.

Roadsigns in Japanese language in Queensland , is like signboards in Japanese language in shop-windows along Rodeo Drive, L.A. Calif, USA

It has to do with the mighty Tourist-dollars, ie the mega-bucks billions dollar tourist industry

And Chinese, Japanese are the largest number of tourists going to Australia. its about $$$$$$$$$$ incomes for Aussie shops, hotels, golf-courses. Maybe Dannii doesn't need the money ( after all, there are lots of guys willing to slurge on her ), but a lot of Aussies sure need their jobs to survive

IATA forcasts China will sending out 100 million tourists to the world's tourist destinations by 2020

Current government is slightly to the right of the Bush admin.On most matters 'cept guns that is>:(.Theyve been stripping back most of the socialist damage of the 70s for a fair few years now.The conservatives are hugely popular and the labour party(sorta like your dems)has little to no chance of getting elected anytime in the forseeable future.

She looks better than the older sister and she's probably smarter too.

Who cares?

I love how your country handles the Muslims.(Kicks 'em right on out of the country.)

Natalie Imbruglia is a lot better than a poke in the eye as well.

[Sparta]

May I ask who that is? Is that Natalie Imbruglia(sp)?

[Sabertooth]

Dannii as a brunette.

Agreed for the most part.It took quite a while for Asians to stop thinking of Australia as one big KKK meeting place.But if she were talking about Asian roadsigns in non-tourist areas....that would be a different story.

I'm from Louisiana. We have Britney(100% pure silicon), Ali(former Miss USA), Ashley Scott(WB's "Birds of Prey"), and I can't think of any others. Help me here.

Don't forget Senator Brown-roots. :-P

[Sparta]

You mean ex-Senator Brown Roots :)

[fieldmarshaldj]

I stand corrected. Soon-to-be Sen. Terrell's daughters more than help the lovely "scenery" in LA... :-)

I read through the "interview" twice. With the possible exception of the "Asian street signs", everything she says is perfectly reasonable. It's the writer who's eccentric.
