Thanksgiving Parade fans applaud Kylie Minogue for doing the thing no one else did
Fans today were left in awe of Kylie Minogue’s epic performance during Thursday’s Thanksgiving Parade, as they claimed she was the only person singing live.
The 56-year-old pop star braved the rainy weather to sing a medley of some of her most famous tunes while dressed in a loose-fitting red and black jumpsuit, flanked by several male backup dancers.
As she performed songs like Padam Padam, Slow and Can’t Get You Out Of My Head, viewers were quick to approach X and praise her performance.
“Kylie Minogue sings live unlike everyone else – oh that’s mother,” one wrote, while another posted: “Kylie Minogue said the mic is AWN.”
A third said: “Kylie Minogue killed it at the Thanksgiving parade, I danced while making little turkey pie doughs,” and a fourth claimed: “Kylie Minogue is the only one who doesn’t lip sync.”
A fifth viewer commented, “I will never hate the Macy Thanksgiving Day Parade. Kylie Minogue was there, they are keeping their finger on the pulse.’
Someone else said: ‘Kylie Minogue absolutely killed that performance at the Macy’s Parade. I got my life in my living room! Wow.’
However, another person posted: ‘Okay Kylie Minogue was great singing live but also…would have preferred if she lip-synced.’

TV presenter Jimmy Fallon was mocked by viewers for wearing sunglasses in the pouring rain
However, one person who was mocked for his appearance at the Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade was television host Jimmy Fallon.
The 50-year-old Tonight Show star had viewers in stitches as he wore black sunglasses despite standing under an umbrella in the pouring rain.
Fans immediately jumped to the conclusion that the star must have tried to cover up any evidence of a ‘bender’ from the night before and took to social media to share their amusement.
