All we can say is “Wow” after one Kylie Minogue fan went viral for claiming the singer has become “woke and all gay”.

It came after the Aussie singer’s recent gig in Glasgow to launch the UK leg of her Tension Tour on Friday (16 May). And while many praised the “Padam Padam” singer for her performance, one supposed fan had some unlikely criticism to aim at her.

Taking to X on Friday (16 May), user @Brian12223753 tagged Kylie and wrote: “Welcome to Glasgow Kylie, I have seen you 5 times in concert but never again as you have [sic] went woke and all gay.”

The user added: “I felt threatened standing in the crowds by the gay community that you attract so I won’t pay money to see you.”

And to finish it all off, Brian put: “Pity you went down that road in life but love you loads.”

Brian really said “Get Outta My Way”, I’ve got to make a fool of myself – and “On A Night Like This”, too!

As one person who quote-tweeted Brian later said: “It took Brian five concerts and hundreds of pounds to realise Kylie Minogue’s target audience is not straight men.”

We have several issues with Brian’s comments. First, the assertion Kylie “went woke and all gay.” Kylie has always been an LGBTQ+ ally and has discussed it multiple times in the past.

Secondly, Brian has seen her five times and never seemingly felt threatened by the gay men in attendance until now. So, what’s changed?

And finally, you’re still saying “love you loads,” after you decided to “Say Something” like this? Feels like some inner “Tension” at play here.

Quite unsurprisingly Brian has since been ripped into by others online for his take on the “In Your Eyes” singer.
