Can you be both straight and queer? You can if you’re Dannii Minogue | Arwa Mahdawi

You assumed the entertainer was talking about her sexuality when she said she was queer'? What an old-fashioned way of thinking!

I have some inspiring news for heterosexuals who may be struggling with their lifestyle choices: Dannii Minogue has bravely come out as straight.

Why did the 52-year-old, who has a long-term boyfriend, feel she needed to come out now? Well, it seems that Minogue may have misunderstood what the word queer means. Earlier this month, you see, the entertainer was doing a Q&A about a new gay dating reality TV series she's hosting called I Kissed a Girl, and was asked if she was attracted to women. Minogue replied: You girls are hot. You know it. I love it. I'm here for it. Is that an answer?" Not really, to be honest. Still, she also helpfully clarified that she identifies as queer in a weird way".
