Gay icon Kylie Minogue's recently
released video for the single Sexercize is heating up the
Internet.
In the video, Minogue, dressed in
nothing more than a body-hugging leotard and bright red high heels,
sings “Let me see you take it down; let me me see you take it up;
let me see you bounce, bounce, bounce; feel the burn” as other
women press up against each other in an industrial-looking gym. (The
video is embedded on this page. Visit
our video library for more videos.)
Sexercise, which was produced by
out songwriter Sia, is featured on Minogue's latest studio album Kiss
Me Once, which
is available at Amazon.
“Sexercize! Yes! Thank you, Sia!”
Minogue
said of Sexercize. “I actually blushed when I heard the
title and thought, 'Oh, that's wrong.' But that's the genius of Sia.
She can make it cool and make it hot. And I can probably put the
little wink into it, so you know it's going to be more fruity than
sleazy.”

headlined a story about the video with: “Kylie Minogue gets Sapphic
for Sexercise.”
“Kyle Minogue's new video is
basically soft porn,” wrote a commenter on Twitter.

Minogue hopes for gay marriage in Australia sooner rather than
later.)
