I’m in need of some cheering up yet again, and the music of today’s birthday icon Kylie Minogue always does it for me!
The visuals in each of these videos…STUN all the way. ✨✨✨

Yesterday, I got to break some tension in San Francisco by attending the Tension Tour featuring pop icon Kylie Minogue! While I got to see her for the first time a year ago, it’s not every year she tours the States. Let’s get to it with the pics!
(Note: there are no pics of her opening act Rita Ora, but only because I was in a long-ass line for Kylie merch while she was performing. Sorry!)
Kylie!!!

Speaking of pop icons, I can write an essay on how much I adore thee Kylie Minogue (and how unfairly slept on she is when “modern pop icons” is the topic), but for now I shall summate her in two words: Pop Perfection. ❤️
I posted some pics and clips of my glorious time from this year’s Outloud Music Festival at WeHo Pride on my SM, and here’s more!


You’re officially at a Pride festival when you see rainbows and Kylie imagery.

Did Karl The Fog also take a trip to LA, too?

The crowd during the free Friday show. The barrier in the back separates the General Admission crowd from the VIPs (which I was a part of, TYVM).
Drag queens and dicks out on the stage!
Adam Lambert and Kesha command the crowd. I was so damn happy to see Kesha thriving and happy again, after all she’s gone through. ❤️

Did I really pay $18.50 for a small plastic cup of Kylie’s Sparkling Rose?

Yup, I did. Don’t be surprised. I ended up buying a bottle of water to save the leftover rose. I still have it! 😛
I had the VIP Weekend Pass, but personal commitments kept me away from the Saturday night show, which is why I have no pics of Janelle Monae (who was Saturday’s headliner–I heard Queen Latifah also joined her on stage that night, so yes it sucks to have missed out on that!).
Nothing would keep me away from the Sunday show, however, since that was the day I’d finally see thee Kylie perform! Before I get to that, I must say that the festival should’ve expanded their Summertramp Stage area. (It was across the street from the main stage.) I say that because some of us (olds) also wanted to see 90s dance legend Crystal Waters live (she performed a couple hours before Kylie came on). Instead, I and many others got turned away due to “capacity” issues. Bruh.

This ended up being my view of the Crystal show.😆 I still heard her, but maaaannnn…
Thankfully, I was a lot luckier when I finally got to see HER.

Also glad to have a good zoom on the camera on my phone, because I was, I dunno, 100 deep into the crowd? Her audience looked like it could’ve easily filled Staples Center (I know it’s not called that anymore, but I still call it that!).
The joy on Kylie’s face when she was rewarded with that sign and the WeHo mayor proclaiming that day to be Kylie Minogue Day!
And these clips I personally took…

Fireworks to cap off a night to remember!
I overheard someone in the crowd saying Kylie’s WeHo show was “better than Vegas”. I can’t speak on that, but I planned on going to one of her Vegas shows a couple months ago until I heard she was going to headline this music festival that was closer to home and cheaper to attend. Sure I’d spend $250+ for standing room only tix to her Vegas show, but, for a few bucks more, I got VIP passes and all-weekend access to see Kylie and many other great artists perform.

Now THAT’S a shirt!

Those who follow my short-form nonsense on Twitter would know that I’ll always be fangirling for pop icon Kylie Minogue! This being her birthday, there’s no question whose music I’ll be spinning (around) today!
