Kylie Minogue has revealed that she is a "massive" Madonna fan.
The Get Outta My Way singer was speaking at her Australian Record Industry Association (ARIA) Hall of Fame induction on November 27.
She said: "I'm a massive Madonna fan, absolutely. I've only met her briefly. We have some friends in common and a message will go back and forth. 'She says hi', or, 'I say hi'. But, obviously how can you not love Madonna?"

Minogue said she is excited about Madonna's forthcoming album next year and hopes "she kills it."
She added: "I want her to do really, really well. As a fan, I want some great Madonna music."
Madonna is expected to release her next album - which is being produced by William Orbit - in the spring following the debut of her new single Give Me All Your Love.
Meanwhile, Minogue will release a re-recorded collection of her greatest hits, which will contain "acoustic and orchestral versions" of her most popular songs.
The new album is being made to coincide with 25th anniversary of Minogue's music career.
