Dannii Minogue's love life: From claims of a fling with Simon Cowell to having ... trends now
Dannii Minogue fought back tears when she revealed she identifies as 'queer' during the launch of lesbian dating show I Kissed A Girl.
The show, hosted by Dannii, 52, will see ten single women live together in a luxury Italian house in the hope of sparking a romance.
Dannii, who has only been known to be in relationships with men publicly, said at the event: 'I identify as queer in a weird way.'
She was responding to some of the girls in the series making it clear they fancy the Australian star in the first episode.
Dannii also said: 'This is so important. There hasn't been a show for the girls in the reality gay dating world. It's like we need this to happen. I'm hoping that there are parties up and down the country.'

After the candid admission about her identity, MailOnline is taking a look back at the singer's love life.
One of Dannii's most high-profile relationships was with Australian actor Julian McMahon who she met in 1990 while working on the soap Home And Away.
Dannii and Julian, who is the son of former Australian Prime Minister William McMahon, were married for two years before divorcing in 1995.
Dannii endured a difficult relationship with Julian's mother Sonia, who disliked the singer and threatened not to attend the couple's wedding.
The hitmaker previously said: 'There was no relationship, she wouldn't speak to me, I wasn't allowed to be near her in the house, she said she wasn't coming to the wedding. We just had no idea how to handle it - we were just trying to.'
In 1999, Dannii became engaged to 1997 World Champion Jacques Villeneuve, son of Ferrari Formula 1 driver GIles Villeneuve. It wasn't meant to be however, as the pair broke up two years later.
Three years later, Dannii began her next serious romance by dating Scottish music producer and bassist for the band Bros, Craig Logan.
It was reported in March 2002 that the pair were engaged but by December of that year, they had parted ways.

It was announced in January 2010 that Dannii was pregnant and she gave birth to the couple's son Ethan, 13, in July.
Dannii and Kris split up two years later, with the star confirming the breakup on Twitter. She wrote: 'It brings me great sadness to tell you that Kris & I have separated. We still care for each other & ask for privacy at this difficult time, in particular for our son Ethan who remains our number one priority.'
During her time as a judge on The X Factor from 2007 to 2010, there were rumours Dannii had a fling with fellow judge and show boss Simon Cowell.
