The Padam Padam singer attended the UK music industry's biggest night to receive the BRITs Global Icon Award - the event's highest accolade - in recognition of her three-decade career.

But one of the most memorable moments came when the singer downed a drink from a stiletto at the request of the night's host Roman Kemp.

The British radio presenter said it would be remiss not to ask to do the "Aussie tradition of a shoey" with Minogue, while interviewing her in the audience.

Looking somewhat reluctant and making clear she had "never" partaken before, Minogue gave in as Kemp poured a drink into a pair of black stilettos before they said "cheers" and drank from the shoes.

It came amid a big night in the singer's career spanning "36 years and counting".

"There's a part of me that's still the 14-year-old girl in her room dreaming of making music and being in this industry," she said, accepting the Global Icon Award.

"Here I am with this [award] and anything's possible so thank you to each and every person who's been part of my journey."

The pop star performed a seven-minute medley featuring some of her biggest hits: Padam Padam, Can't Get You Out Of My Head, Love At First Sight and All The Lovers.

Minogue had a resurgence in 2023 on the back of her Grammy-winning viral hit Padam Padam, the lead single from her 16^th studio album Tension which climbed to number one status in the UK and Australia.

She is also in the midst of a residency at Las Vegas club Voltaire.
