Cowgirl Kylie returns to her Neighbours
By DAILY MAIL REPORTER
Is that you Charlene? Kylie Minogue channels her Neighbours character as she performs in concert at the Agganis Arena in Boston
It’s been over twenty years since she played Charlene Robinson in Neighbours, but Kylie looked to be channelling the character that launched her to fame as she performed in Boston last night.
The Australian pop princess wore her hair in a wild bouffant style reminiscent of Charlene as she took her Aphrodite: Les Folies tour to the Agganis Arena.
She finished off the look with a Cowboy and Western themed outfit of denim cut-off shorts, a white vest with huge slits and a gold leotard underneath.

Kylie, 42, later wowed the audience when she took to the stage in a dramatic aluminium foil style strapless ball gown.
She later took to her Twitter account to praise the crowd at the concert.

Katy Perry mocks internet sensation Rebecca Black
By GEORGINA LITTLEJOHN
Mocking: Katy Perry sang an acoustic and tuneless version of Rebecca Black's Friday on stage in Melbourne last night
There are probably a lot of teenage girls who would be thrilled to bits if Katy Perry decided to sing one of their songs during her concert.
But not Rebecca Black, who will no doubt be feeling a little disappointed with the Firework star's 'tribute' to her.
Perry poked fun at the teenager when she performed her song 'Friday' at her gig in Melbourne yesterday.
You know the words: With a sarcastic look on her face, Katy led the audience into a rendition of the chorus
And Katy decided the only way to sing it was out of tune, mocking the fact that the 13-year-old used auto-tuning on her vocals.
As she started an acoustic set during the gig, Katy, 25, with a mocking wide-eyed look on her face, declared to the crowd: 'So I can't play the flute. But that's ok. Because everything magical happens on a Friday.'
She received loud cheers from the audience inside the Rod Laver Arena, with one, who was recording the performance, declaring: 'No way'.
Big Down Under: Rebecca Black, seen here arriving at LAX airport yesterday, had 15,000 Melbourne fans singing her song
Rebecca Black, who comes from California, shot to fame earlier this year after heavily auto-tuned video of Friday went viral.
But unfortunately for the teen, it attracted a barrage of criticism and even death threats after her video was viewed by more than 110 million times on YouTube.
And Black admitted she was shaken by the vicious comments she received online.
Speaking on Good Morning America last month, she said: 'When I first saw all these nasty comments I did cry. I felt like this was my fault and I shouldn't have done this and this is all because of me. Now I don't feel that way.'

'The most incredible gift ever': Mariah Carey gives birth to twins
By DAILY MAIL REPORTER
Happy news: Mariah Caery, pictured with husband Nick Cannon in December, has given birth to twins today in Los Angeles on her wedding anniversary
Superstar singer gives birth to a girl, followed by a boy
Nick describes it as the 'most incredible wedding anniversary gift ever in life'
They listened to Carey's song We Belong Together after the births
Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon celebrated their third wedding anniversary today by becoming parents to a baby girl and boy.
Carey's representative, Cindi Berger, confirmed the twins' arrival, saying the superstar delivered at 12:07 pm EDT at an undisclosed hospital in Los Angeles.
Berger says the baby girl was born first, weighing 5lbs 3oz and was 18 inches long; her brother was next, at 5lbs 6oz and was 19 inches.
Pure delight: Nick tweeted about 'the most incredible anniversary gift ever' following the births
Berger says the couple has not named the children yet.
Cannon drove Carey to the hospital in their Rolls-Royce Phantom. Berger said the 41-year-old Carey, who had gone through false labour, was calm, thinking that it was another false alarm.
Meanwhile, Cannon, 30, was so nervous he went to the wrong department at the hospital, and was guided to the maternity ward by a nurse.
Berger says they were listening to Carey's We Belong Together after the children were born.
Cannon tweeted this afternoon: 'My wife just gave me the most incredible anniversary gift ever in life! I won't ever be able to top this!'
Prediction: Her husband Nick Cannon said they were expecting the twins to arrive 'any second' when he appeared on the Ellen DeGeneres show on Wednesday
All I Want For Christmas: Mariah putting on a festive performance at Disney World in Florida, in December revealing her growing bump in a full-length black gown while surrounded by the famous cartoon characters

Have Britain's Got Talent judges found their winner?
By EMILY SHERIDAN
A little boy with a small voice: Ronan Parke, 12, received a standing ovation after his powerful rendition of Feeling Good at the London auditions of Britain's Got Talent
It's only the third week of auditions in this year's Britain's Got Talent - but it looks like the judges may have already found their winner.
Angelic schoolboy Ronan Parke was advised to 'not bother to go back to school' by Michael McIntyre after he wowed the audience at the London auditions.
The 12-year-old burst into tears when he was given three yesses after belting out a powerful rendition of Nina Simone's Feeling Good.
One to watch: Judges (L-R) Michael McIntyre, Amanda Holden and Louis Walsh all gave Ronan the thumbs up
Emotional: The cute singer burst into tears as the judges all gave him a yes
He had taken the day off school to go the audition with his mother Maggie and father Trevor, who watched anxiously from the wings.
Despite Maggie's fears of how he would be received, the judges and the audience gave him a huge applause - making him one of the most popular acts so far this series.
Judge Michael McIntyre said: 'So you took a day off school... I wouldn’t bother going back. You’re a little star. You’ve taken a room and blown the roof off it… You’re the best we’ve seen so far.'
Guest judge Louis Walsh, who had stepped in on behalf of David Hasselhoff, said: 'I’m gonna predict really big things for you. You’re so good.'
Speaking after Ronan's audition, Walsh tipped the boy to be the breakout star of this series: 'He’s the one to beat. Little Ronan could be the winner.'

Not very Abbey: Cart-wheeling verger carpeted by clerics after becoming wedding web sensation
By JONATHAN PETRE
The Westminster Abbey verger who became an internet sensation after cart-wheeling down the nave following the Royal Wedding has been rebuked by senior staff.
Sources at the Abbey said the man was feeling ‘fairly chastened’ after his impromptu display of acrobatics was caught on film.
Although he is unlikely to face any formal disciplinary action, Abbey staff have warned him not to speak publicly about the incident.
Flipping good time: Verger Ben Sheward lands with a smile after the wedding went without any hitches
While the Abbey has refused to identify him, sources have disclosed he is Ben Sheward, who lives in South London.
The sources said Mr Sheward is believed to have worked at the Abbey for ten years, and he has previously been pictured welcoming new choirboys by sharing sweets with them.
According to some sources, he has studied music in New Zealand and is an expert on the composer Edward Elgar.
Splendour: Only an hour earlier, the new Duchess of Cambridge was was being walked down the aisle
Mr Sheward waited until some 1,900 guests had left the Abbey before seizing his chance to cartwheel down the red carpet that William and Kate had just walked along for the first time as a married couple.
In the clip, the black-cassocked verger is shown strolling down the carpet.
As a number of apparent stragglers from the wedding service look on, he embarks on one cart-wheel, smiles, and then squeezes in at least one other before disappearing out of shot.
ITV cameras caught his antics, which were beamed to millions of viewers around the world, ensuring the unsuspecting verger became an international celebrity
Spectacle: As well as billions who saw it on TV, thousands watched the occasion from outside the Abbey
The clip had already attracted 100,000 internet hits yesterday, and comments on various websites had come from as far afield as the United States and Australia. One said: ‘I think this self-publicist should be sacked!’ Most, however, praised him.
A Westminster Abbey spokesman said: ‘The verger, like all of us, was very pleased the service had gone according to plan, and was expressing his exuberance.’ He emphasised that the incident occurred some time after the wedding had finished.
Sight to behold: Prince William and Kate emerge from the Abbey... it was enough to make one man cart-wheel
