Stressed Kylie pays tribute to boyfriend

Wednesday, June 16th, 2010

Pop diva Kylie Minogue has admitted she suffers from frequent work related meltdowns, but boyfriend helps to calm her down.

Minogue, 42, has been with current man, Andres Velencoso, 32, for around a year-and-a-half having earlier gone through a series of disastrous relationships. During an interview with leading UK fashion magazine Grazia, Minogue spoke of how she had put her career ahead of all else, acknowledging her habit for perfectionism had left her open to stress.

Fortunately, the Spanish model Velencoso is very understanding and supportive, the former Neighbours star saying he was her oasis of calm, particularly at this time when the singer is working on promoting her brand new album Aphrodite. The stunning songstress said Velencoso had seen her in all moods, from chilled at home Minogue to full-on stress puppy that frequently freaks out and suffers meltdowns. His reaction has most often been a simple, gentle ‘hey, calm down’.

The latest stress-test for the couple was over media reports that Velencoso felt pressured into accompanying Minogue on her celebrity appearances – which the pop princess says is blatantly untrue, claiming that this was another media ploy to destabilise her relationships, presumably giving them something to write about. She said she was at a loss to comprehend why it was that people would want the happy couple separated, but added her work and love life were both wonderful.
