Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has issued an apology for making “inappropriate” comments about Kylie Minogue in a recent podcast appearance.
The comments about the pop star were made when the PM made an appearance on the Bush Deep podcast, hosted by comedian Nikki Osborne. The host is best recognised for her crude comedy skits on YouTube, and launched the podcast earlier this year, describing herself as a “wildly inappropriate journalist” who is willing to ask guests “questions no one else would dare”.
During the 20-minute interview, Osbourne asked Albanese who he would “shag, marry or date” out of Kylie Minogue, Nicole Kidman or Rhonda Burchmore.
Initially, he tried to avoid answering the question by clarifying that he had “just got married” to his partner Jodie Haydon in November and was “only six months in” to the marriage.
After being pushed to answer by the host, he eventually responded: “Oh, Kylie, clearly”. When asked by Osbourne if that meant he’d “marry Kylie, and shag her, and date her”, he replied: “All of the above. She’s terrific”.
