Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese apologizes for Kylie Minogue’s comments
The BBC reported that the Prime Minister made the comments after meeting with the public and politicians. “I apologize unequivocally for the comments,” he said of comments he made last week while presenting the ‘Bush Deep’ podcast with comedian Nikki Osborne.During the interview, the Prime Minister was given three names: Kylie Minogue, Nicole Kidman and Rhonda Burchmore. He was then asked to choose between three stars who he would “cut, marry or have a relationship with.” The interview was held at the Prime Minister’s residence in Canberra, and was heavily criticized by the public for being inappropriate. He said, “Oh, Kylie, clearly.”However, she initially avoided the question, telling the interviewer, “I just got married, I’ve only been married for six months.” In response, Osborne elaborated and asked, “Would you marry Kylie, beat her, and have an affair with her?” He replied, “All of the above. He is very good.”Many people commented on the story and called her playing the game and Kylie’s comments. Independent MP Zali Steggall said: “They need to learn to fight back, lead by example and call it sexism.” Shadow Communications Minister Sarah Henderson said in a statement that the comments were “disrespectful to women, an embarrassment to the Australian people and an affront to the office of Prime Minister.” Rather than politely decline to take part, Mr Albanese took to the streets with his sarcastic remarks, which reflect a lack of thought at a time when Labor’s confidence is on the wane. “Despite receiving huge returns, there are no public statements about Kylie Minogue.
