Nah, Kylie's in the twilight years of her career now, her albums aren't doing as good as they were.
Rylan Clark or Kitty Brucknell should be considered, give them a really good pop song.
You have got to be kidding!
So rather than entering acts with enough Talent to get themselves in to the music through their own talent, we should use people who resort to an entertainment TV to gain famedome?
We should be entering acts that actually have talent not the people who appear on a fake TV show designed to make one Mr Cowell a lot of money.
Kylie's career is already on the skids, she's hardly going to taint it even further with Eurovision. Plus, since All The Lovers she hasn't released a single song that would win.
Would rather see us go down the Netherlands route of getting a really good song performed by a singer or group with a dash of musical credibility. I actually think that we got part of the way there this year (wouldn't be totally surprised to see Molly go onto bigger and better things) and hope that the BBC carry on with the unsigned artist thing, perhaps expanding it into a National Final. If Eurovision can act as something of a springboard to success for a new artist then this has to be preferable to seen better days "next stop Butlins in Skeggy" acts like Blue or Bonnie. Lets use it to develop new talent rather than it being one last payday for an old stager.

I 100% agree. In spite of Molly's result, I think she will have a promising career and I hope she does. It was refreshing to sign in an unknown talent with lots of potential for a change. Having Englebert, Blue and Bonnie in the past were a joke.
I've often thought Kylie would be a good choice for the UK. But it would still depend on the song. No doubt she'd be known in all the other countries, but she'd still have to work for it.
The last winner for UK was an American. Perhaps we should draft in Will-I-Am. On second thoughts....
No that would be awful! He ruined Britney Spears' last album >:( Hang on there's an idea... why not send Britney? It might take a couple of years because of her Vegas residency but in theory it would be possible. A song like Work Bitch would be epic at Eurovision
Imagine if we sent Madonna, the most successful female artist ever. She'd never do it though, she's far too commercially successful to go near it but I'd be fascinated to see what Europe's reaction to such a megastar would be. I can't see Kylie ever doing it either, we should be sending somebody with credibility who is on the way up.

But Kylie... no, Geri would be better.
Seems that is the way to win these days
To be fair she's Australian

Do you really think Eurovision is about the voice? The strongest vocal didn't get far tonight at all.
Its about a good pop song, vocal range doesn't come into it.

Didn't Olivia Newton John represent the UK years ago?
