Default Dannii's CD bombs

Dannii's CD bombs

She judges UK's new talent..her single sells just 1,500
On the X Factor panel she's quick to tell pop hopefuls if their singing is hopeless.

But judge Dannii Minogue - who berates wannabes for warbling out of tune - may not be so hasty to criticise now, if her new single's performance is anything to go by.

We can reveal that her latest musical offering, Touch Me Like That, is an embarrassing flop which is unlikely to even break into the Top 40.

Poor sales mean that the single is set to scrape in at a pitiful No.43, according to midweek charts. Oh dear...

Worse still for Kylie's kid sister, it has failed to make it on to the allimportant Radio 1 playlist. Sadly for Dannii, it seems few would touch Touch Me Like That with a bargepole.

You'd think that with her high profile on X Factor the single would be flying off the shelves.

Certainly Dannii's publicity people had high hopes that her appearances on the show would propel the single into the Top 10.

The desperate flunkeys even plug the programme in their breathy press release, which also describes the song with Jason Nevins as an "electro epic".

Some epic. It has shifted barely more than 1,500 copies since it went on sale in the shops this week. It has even been available digitally seven days earlier, but still no one was buying.

Tragically for Dannii, the track is being trounced by reissues from such veterans as Shakin Stevens, Wizzard, Wham! and Phil Collins.

No doubt Dannii's pop humiliation will bring a smile to the faces of fellow judges Sharon Osbourne and Louis Walsh.

On the hit ITV1 show last Saturday Louis blasted Dannii - who is mentor to Rhydian Roberts and Leon Jackson - for saying that his finalist, Niki Evans, had sung out of tune.

Dannii, 36, told Niki: "I watched the tape from last week and you were completely out of tune."

Louis, who was spitting-mad, hit back live on air, saying: "Dannii, singing out of tune? Ho ho!" Ouch...

Sharon's not Dannii's biggest fan either. The pair had a to-do when the live finals began and there has been no love lost between them since.

Neither she nor Louis will be in any mood to spare Dannii's feelings. Although Simon Cowell, who is her mentor, will be fighting her corner.

A show source says: "Knowing Sharon and Louis they'll make it their mission to keep reminding her because it winds her up so much.

"But Simon is very protective of Dannii and will no doubt be reassuring her that she's wonderful."

Roll on Saturday's show...

I agree. I think she is trying to hard to be like her sister. I do like Dannii's new song though, and Kylies.
