Now Kylie slates pop reality shows

Kylie Minogue has joined Robbie Williams in condemning reality TV shows. Calling the shows "frightening" she says they encourage youngsters to seek fame rather than to look for real talent and ambition. "Fame used to be a by-product," she said in an interview with Radio 1. "We can look at it and see a little bit more clearly what's happening, but for teenagers that's the kind of TV they've had for the last five years with Big Brother etc. It's like "what do you want to do when you grow up?, I want to be famous. What for? It doesn't matter. I think it's frightening. You should have your ambition to do something before that - it's all too easy to say they're not talented, obviously they can perform, they can sing, and what the judges and the press always go on about is we're looking for the extra ingredient".
