POP diva Kylie Minogue has been immortalised in bronze in a statue to be unveiled at Melbourne's Docklands today.
The life-size likeness, complete with lace body stocking and red high-heels, will stand alongside fellow Aussie entertainment greats Graham Kennedy and John Farnham.
The unveiling comes on the eve of the release of her new album, X.
The statue is the work of Melbourne sculptor Peter Corlett, who said he was inspired by the Showgirl tour to create a figure that showcased the "ultimate Kylie".
The figure took three months to produce and, unlike many of his previous works, has splashes of colour.
Corlett liaised with Kylie's dress-makers to get her body measurements and then he found a cafe waitress, with the same measurements, to pose.
