Kylie Gets No Love
What is wrong with America????
After an ambitious TV campaign to promote her new CD in the U.S., which saw her appearing on Ellen, the Today show, Dancing With the Stars and the Late Late Show…..
Kylie Minogue's X has debuted on the Billboard album charts at #139.
So sad!
The record sold a very very disappointing 5,500 copies.
Oh, well. She'll never make it in America, but the rest of the world (and us too) LOVES Kylie!
P.S. We blame the choice of single on the album's poor first-week performance.
All I See should NOT have been Kylie's first release in America with this album!

FIRST
I was NOT impressed with her on Dancing with the Stars… Her new song she sang on there was low-quality… I ended up turning the channel because I couldn't stand it…
HA! HA! HA! She bombed worse than Kelly Clarkson.
Fuckiiiin' America, I love her, she 's a great singer and a great woman too ^^
XOXO Kylie
FIRST!!!
I
America and North America doesn't know what's good for it!!!
Kylie ROCKS!!!!!
bitch
only fags like kylie.
now snap your fingers and blog about the spice girls
Perhaps it's because the music is SHIT? Ever think of that, you dumbass?
Its okay Kylie, you are so loved!
I bought the import last December. It's an excellent album!
where's your announcement about Mariah trashing Madonna in the charts? Are you just choosing to ignore it because it's too painful despite all your efforts! Go MC!
oh shit, kefed sold more than her.

Perez … she is not as hot as you think she is - EVIDENT from this post.
Kylie is amazing!!! I couldn't agree more that her first single shouldn't have been all I see. What about wow or love me? Oh well! Maybe one day America will get it!
Ya know, I like her music & all but her voice just gets old after like three songs. She'll never ever be the gay icon you claim, Perez. Absolutely never. And for some reason, us Americans just don't gravitate to her. She's just so-so. Nothing major, yet still entertaining. I wouldn't pay more than like $40 to see her.
What about the fact that she can't sing? That may have something to with it.
I believe that all artists sales suck honestly because I only know, in my whole friends & family circle, of a few actual albums bought. Eveything is available online for free now, and everyone has a mp3 player now. There really isn't a demand for cd's anymore. & that's my 2 cents!!
Couldnt agree more - should have gone with 2 hearts or in my arms - all i see is nothing more than a decent album track. Think her people went with it as its the most 'RnB' like track on the album and at the moment that seems to dominate US charts and airplay - wrong approach.
Whoops!
I agree - Kylie's choice of first single in the US was not good, and her performance on DWTS was a bit weak. Also it's difficult performing a song live for the first time, as people don't know it, and can't really relate. She does have other great songs she could have released (and probably might still do). She will ALWAYS be a STAR though!!
People who wanted it downloaded it from its release elsewhere. Duhh
Her dress is GORGEOUS!!
should have said - think she is a great entertainer & artist…

That sucks. I love kylie, im a huge fan. I think that it hurts to have had the album out in europe such a long time already, so any kylie fans in america either got it on import by now or downloaded it online. Its an amazing pop record, but All I See is weak. And to what some ppl say, yah for the most part kylie is loved by the gays lol but you all are just missing out. I still love ya kylie.
Horrible singer. All flash - no substance.
KYLIE is HOT, and America is not ready for that. Instead we're all jumpin around to that silly bat Rihanna who couldnt carry a tune in a 5 gallon bucket. KYLIE's record company here in the states needs to do a media blitz just like the one done for Rihanna. You're right! UK and the rest of Europe Love Kylie!! But ya know, we've always been behind here in the ole US of ASS.
Kylie sucked big time on Dancing with the Stars (at first I thought some unknown was doing a poor cover of "Can't get you outta my head"!), and she made a poor choice in clothing. After all her keepin' mum on what exact surgery she had done for her cancer, it was clear she has no left breast anymore. Cover it up if you don't want us to know, honey!!
I love her, but I saw all her TV appearances, and she sounded pretty bad live. Sorry to say it, but that is the truth
she is the best
It should have been WOW!
great album i think
kylie has been OVER for some time now. Her album has FLOPPED all over the world…people moved on…Period!
I wholeheartedly agree that All I See should NOT have been the first single… pretty much ANY other song on X except for Cosmic would have been better… Like A Drug, anyone?? but she's big EVERYWHERE else and as long as I can still get her stuff (via blogs and filesharing sites) its all good. wish she woulda hit it big in the US tho.
She ain't even as good as Paris Hilton Ha ha!!!!
My heart sheds a tear…I bought the album via itunes, and was going to get the real cd as well, but backed out at the last minute (thought it was overkill). But now I may. 5,500 copies?? Sheez people, has she been gone that long that you all forgot?!? The album is incredible. I agree, bad choice of song for the first single; however, i LOVE "All I See". She should have bombarded us with WOW or Two Hearts….ah well, America never had good taste…
**cough**cough**jonasbrothers**cough**cough**
Poor Kylie. That's just because the US has a bad taste in music. I mean look at the US charts.
Kylie doesn't need the US, she should concentrate on the rest of the world, where she is a superstar.

Kylie sucked on DwtS. At first I thought it was some new wannabe doing a cover of "Can't getcha outta my head". And you could so tell she has no left breast in the dress she was wearing.
And with all the crap you post on your site, what's up with erasing comments here, Perez?
Hmm. Yeh wrong single, no video, lacklustre performances and poor reviews. Kylie's ace, it just didn't work out this time in the US. Probably never will. But hey - the US is less and less relevant as the years go by, so who cares really!
she will always be huge in Europe, who cares if Americans only like Hillary Duff and Rihanna.
You know, after a very short while, all shiny, glittery, meaningless, repetitious dance music starts to sound the same…
BETCH SINGING CAREER IS OVER…WILL SELL BUTT PICTURES FOR MONEY
IT WILL HAPPEN TO YOU
When Men in Blue arrive……
P p P p P
Kylie came unstuck when she started believing her own hype..and lost what made her appealing in the first place. The truth is, she is a below average singer, crap dancer, but she began to think she was the NEW Madonna, but she just isn't that fascinating or charismatic…she's just a frizzy perm from the 80's who was in the right place at the right time…and now that time is OVER!
HAHAHA!! PEREZ IS SUEING NUMEROUS BLOGGERS FOR DEFAMATION!! AND JUST EXACTLY HOW DID HE BECOME FAMOUS???
WHO THE FUCK IS THE ASHOLE THAT KEEPS PROMOTING HIS WEB SITE. GO PAY FOR A REAL AD YOU MORON GOOD FOR NOTHING.
SHE AIN'T EVEN BIG IN EUROPE ANYMORE

What do you expect ? Capitol US is not the kind of label that can have a hit with a pop artist. They know rock music, nothing more. Regardless of what Kylie's US single could have been, she would not have fared well. They phoned in their promotion of her for this album. Plus, they waited too long to release it in the States. Anyone who cares about Kylie would have bought the import in the shops or the internet ages ago. Someone needs to tell Capitol it's a global market these days.
hahahahahaha
hahahahahhaah
hahahahahahahah
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah
That's what happens when you COPY MADONNA!!!
often imitated never duplicate….there is only one QUEEN MADONNA!!!
Kylie looked and sounded horrible on all those shows…….that song choice was the worst ever.
I like her BUT……………. have always felt she exudes a tacky "Las Vegas" ….. "SHow Biz" kind of vibe that does not appeal to the younger music buying crowd in North America. She is HUGE in the UK, Australia and Europe tho.
She needs to work with hipper producers and choreographers if she wants to appeal to music buyers. Maybe new management would help. She has never really caught on here and I think this may have been her last "kick at the can" for America.
You are right Perez…. the single is boring.
MEN IN BLUE
I have to agree her performance on Dancing With The Stars didn't help. She sounded horrible.
Booby - You sound like a bitter woman who hasn't been properly laid for a long time. Do you live anywhere near Adrian Georgia?
What ambitious TV campaign? I'd have no idea Kylie even had a new release if I haven't been reading it here.
she does not succed in America because…
1 - she is ugly
2 - she is untalented
3 - North Americans have better things to do with their time than slobber all over some stupid, washed-up Aussie soap opera "star"
"Perez Hilton files libel lawsuit against fellow gossip blogger. Says his reputation has been ruined by false sex claims"….POST SOMETHING ABOUT THAT
I never really liked her, i dont know why,,,,
hey old songs were nice, not .. overkill..
Kylie hasn't had a hit album in the world since FEVER 7 years ago, since then her sales have been below mediocre for anything she releases, but Hey..Madonna is back, Bitches!
Re: Dean – I am a Man ha ha! (men have boobs too) And Kylie is Over…End Of!
she looks like old miley cyrus with blonde hair.
Poor choice for a single, when will they finally release "Like a drug"?
gee.. didn't she die or cancer already?
First single shoulda been "WOW" — !!!!
I agree that 'All I See' should not have been the first single released in the USA, but let's face it. The album was released everywhere else in the world back in November. Anyone who wanted the album found ways to get it back then. With that said, the album is great!
SHORT AND OLD BITCH
SHORT AND OLD BITCH
SHORT AND OLD BITCH
Maybe because she's boring as fuck, her act has been done a million times before, & she has no charisma when performing? Hmmm
Bye Kylie….was nice when it lasted Honey xx
I love Kylie! And I love her first single. I heard it on the radio and didn't even realize it was her til I saw her performance on Dancing on here. I think it needs more radio play. I'm gonna order her album today. Didn't know it was out yet. She's awesome and America just doesn't know it yet. Been a fan ever since she was in the Street Fighter movie!
WOW would have been a better selection for her 1st release….
Me and a couple of buddies in Arizona bought her album on import way back in December. I know many hard core Kylie fans in America that have had the CD since late last year when it came out in the UK. Perhaps her devoted fans were already in possession of the disk and those numbers were not reflected in last weeks sales. Plus, she never tours in the states. We want our Kylie! Love, love, love her…
Well, since JT grabbing her behind at the European MTV awards made him famous in the UK back in the days, maybe he should return the favour and help make her famous in the US… maybe she should have debuted with 2 hearts instead of the song she picked too.
Aww Kylie. Oh well it's cool her album has done really well over-seas. Our culture has bad taste anyways I mean Miley Cyrus is a hit here and that speaks words. I'm still happy I get to see Kylie Opening night in Paris May 6 VIP tickets! During Fashion Week. It's going to be amazing.
Blame the record companies for mismanaging this release. The US gets this 6 months after the original release date. Most big fans have already ordered imports because there was no US release date for MONTHS! If the imports were counted, who knows how many more albums she's sold. Not to mention the fact that X was available for download on iTunes for a while, but no way are those sales counted here either.
Poorly poorly managed launch for the album. Nice way to fuck it up, Capitol. Next time, suck it up and release the album when the rest of the world gets it!!
Maybe if she stopped singing with her nose, learnt to dance, lost 100lbs, sacked her stylist, and bought some charisma from somewhere she might have stood a chance. Now, can we all just put this old broad out to seed not. Thankyou!
Her voice sucks live. One of the worst I have ever heard. I would never buy her music.
Perhaps Kylie's music is what's wrong…PERIOD.
A good release would have helped her cause…but not much.
I wish she would release something that would make me change my mind…I WANT to like her, but her music jsut doesn't work FOR ME. Different strokes..
The prior Australian administration (John Howard's) kept Snoop Dogg out of their country. Why should we show them any love?
We can't embrace everyone. Either you have the goods, or you don't. It's not about being young, blonde or cute. She hasn't bowled us over with her talents. And neither has Beckham, nor a good many other imports.
For sure, All I See should not be the first single, what were they thinking? Like a Drug, In My Arms, the whole album is solid. All I See is one of my least faves.
It would help if people stocked it - I couldn't find it in Target and eventually found it hidden away behind a load of CDs in Walmart. It wasn't given any prime merchandise spots at all. No wonder it's bombed…..
Why ask the question Perez…..she can't sing without computers, think Milli Vanilli. I thought you were perceptive.
it's a really fun electro-dance album. totally light party feel with great beats. great for gym or driving or…obviously…a party. definitely worth the $10. i got it as an early xmas present from friends and then bought a second copy for my sister. i guess it was released in canada 6 months before US.
Her record company is crazy, they just don´t know what to do with Kylie in the US ( And Kylie dosen´t care about the US enoth to make it here ), they released an album without a video for the single, and without the song on the radio till the 15th, even Mariah Carey would have floped!
Get over her!! She is not all that you think she is and people are getting sick of looking at her doing nothing on your web site!!! She is a has been!!!
Her voice is just downright cringe inducing, like nails on a chalk board, and her songs are nothing special, she's like a low-rent Madonna. Besides, you say she'll never make it in America but wasn't her album Fever a huge hit??
this album sucks.
Because anyone who wanted the album bought the import months ago. That's what the marketing assholes get for staggering global release dates and trying to get us to buy the same CD twice for one or two "US only" bonus songs. Screw them. iTunes should be a single global database and records should be released ONCE on a single day, not MONTHS LATER in the US. The music industry is so pre-internet. This ain't 1990, even if Kylie's sound still is.

AND the album, was dificult to find in the stores!

I love her too. She keeps comming with nice dance tunes for everyone. Kylie always talk good about another dance divas such as Madonna, Janet and Donna Summer.
Always wonder why she has never conquer U.S. as she should !
Kylie hates America. She disses it every chance she can get. No surprise no one likes here her.
MExiCO Loves Kylie doesnt matter what is wrong with the U.S.
Re: bitch – And you are fat!
Did you see her performance on Ellen??? It was horrible. Now…like any true gay man we LOVE Kylie…however I was not impressed AT ALL with her new songs nor her performances that I have seen since she has been promoting.
She already make it in America, Fever was a huge hit here!
In My Arms should have been the US first single!
Hey Perez you had one musical hit AMY WINEHOUSE other than that your taste in music SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!! If every living and breathing person on the planet was gay maybe then people would like your music. Get over yourself you are not a music critic. Nothing but a selfserving ass pirate who lucked out and is now semi famous enjoy it while it last bitch boy.
