(Cover) - EN Star Style - Dannii Minogue says her sister Kylie loves wearing hotpants because she wants to "show her butt off".

Kylie is renowned for her perfectly formed rear, and after sporting revealing gold hot pants in her video for single Spinning Around in 2000, the flesh-baring garment came to be regarded as her trademark garb.

The pop star released her eleventh studio album Aphrodite in July last year, and is performing an extensive world tour to showcase the record. After dazzling audiences in Europe, Asia and America, the 43-year-old singing sensation is ending the world tour in her native Australia.

The live shows feature elaborate stage costumes, and when asked by younger sister Dannii what her favourite outfit was, the gorgeous star replied with a familiar answer.

"At this point I'm going to say the denim hotpants and the orange jacket because," began Kylie, before Dannii added; "She wants to show her butt off".

Dannii speculated that her elder sibling protected her modesty on stage by wearing her gold hotpants underneath the more recent denim design. Kylie agreed, saying she makes sure there are no wardrobe malfunctions on stage by wearing a gold leotard underneath her outfits, which is very fitting with the Greek goddess of love, beauty and sexuality.

"There are probably gold pants underneath, you just can't see them," Dannii laughed. "The gold undies are back."

"Oh yeah, they are, the gold body," Kylie agreed, in a video for mydaily.co.uk. "Aphrodite's gold corset slash girdle, that gives her magical powers, it's on for the whole show." (C) Cover Media
