Jools with Kylie and Sir Paul McCartney

Saturday December 22,2007

By Elisa Roche, Showbusiness Editor

ALL eyes were on Kylie Minogue in her skin-tight dress and gold stilettos.

And the fans knocked out by sparkling Kylie included Sir Paul McCartney and Jools Holland.
 
The pop star was a guest on Holland’s annual Hootenanny, which will air on December 31 but which was recorded last week.

In the BBC2 show Kylie duets with Sir Paul, reveals her New Year’s resolutions, and then finishes with a seductive rendition of I Should Be So Lucky.

“I want a growth spurt,” she tells Holland, in one of his trademark chats by the piano. “I’ll be 40 next year and I’d like to be longer please.”

The pop star then treats celebrity guests Dawn French and David Tennant to a duet with music legend Sir Paul.

The pair sing Dance Tonight, one of the more upbeat singles from the former Beatle’s new album Memory Almost Full.

The song will be played minutes before the midnight gongs to see in the New Year.

“The Hootenanny is going to be one of the best ever,” said a studio guest. “The set was very open and Kylie, Macca and all the VIPs were mingling with everyone else.

“Kylie sat next to Sir Paul for most of the night and he was being a real gent, making sure her glass was full and pulling out her chair for her.”
