Kylie admits to stealing music
Reliably sourced from The Age
Pop singer Kylie Minogue today admitted to stealing music since childhood, confirming the suspicions of many music fans.
In an interview spruiking her new range of bed linen, Ms Minogue, 39, took an unprompted segue in conversation, seemingly breaking down on the spot and confessing to music piracy of the highest degree. Her eyes filling with tears, she described the run-down hideaway where her life of music thievery began.
"As a teen, my room had blue flock wallpaper, which is how it was when my family bought the house," Minogue said. "Twin beds and a side table and mirror."
An addiction - and subsequent life of crime - was soon to follow.
"The most important part was the mono radio/cassette player. I was addicted to the radio and I'd spend hours waiting for my favourite song to come on, fingers poised over 'record'."
Sources close to the case say that suspicion was first aroused upon release of Kylie's latest album, X, which was itself of an earlier Kylie album, Fever.
Following today's confession, police have announced a full investigation into the originality of her entire musical catalogue will be conducted. The works of Madonna and Britney Spears are expected to be audited in relation to the case.

Excuse me, as i type through the fog of work ~20 in a row (the joy of IT support when things aren't going so well).
What about section - "Dare to Ask?". The idea is similar to people who write into newspapers for everything from relationships to financial advice. My first question would be "PEZ or Tic-tacs?"
