Dannii Minogue branded ‘fat’ & felt ‘pitted against’ her ‘thin’ sister Kylie

FORMER X Factor judge Dannii Minogue used to feel “pitted against” older sister Kylie, she has said.

She added she would be branded “fat” while singer Kylie, 52, was judged “thin and perfect”.

Actress and singer Dannii, 49, said that being thin was “everything” at the time of the criticisms in the 1990s.

Dannii said: “Thin was everything and it got you on the covers of magazines.

“That wasn’t me.

“But that was what you saw projected from magazine after magazine, to the point where you were just like, well it must be true.

“You’re better if you’re thin.

“I was definitely pitted against my sister — ‘She’s thin and perfect and you’re not, you’re fat’.

“I’ve had every word said to me.

“It was difficult.”
