Kylie Minogue goes wild Down Under as she feeds a baby tiger

Furry friend: Kylie Minogue looks nervous after she offers the bottle of milk to the tiger cub at Melbourne Zoo


Only a week ago, Kylie Minogue admitted her newborn nephew Ethan had made her broody.

But perhaps the singer would prefer a baby tiger instead of a little human after she was spotted cooing over one at Melbourne Zoo yesterday.

The singer, 42, and her model boyfriend Andres Velencoso, 32, joined relatives for a day trip, where they were given the chance to feed the baby tiger some milk

As Melbourne is currently in the middle of winter, the couple wrapped up in coats and scarves for the chilly afternoon.

Missing out on the trip was new mother Dannii, who was back at her new £1million home with her four-week-old son and partner Kris Smith.

On Australian TV last week, Minogue admitted seeing baby Ethan had made her feel broody.

She said: 'Meeting baby Ethan was so beautiful. I gazed adoringly at him he's a little marvel. I was just a little clucky.

'Dannii told me to have a nudie cuddle with Ethan and to take him to the bathroom where Kris was standing with just a towel around him. So we chatted and I'm thinking, That's a lot of water for a little baby. Jet-lagged no sense!
'Then I realised, "Oh, you're getting in the bath as well!" OK.'

The former Neighbours star missed out on Ethan's birth because she was promoting her new album Aphrodite, which went to number one in the UK album charts.

But she celebrated the new addition to the Minogue family, writing on her Twitter page: 'Congratulations to my little sister, Dannii and Kris on their beautiful baby boy, Ethan. He is gorgeous.'

Dannii and Kylie are also aunts to their cameraman brother Brendan's sons Charles and James.

Dannii gave birth to little Ethan on July 5 at the Royal Women's Hospital in Melbourne.

The singer was originally hoping to have a home birth, but was advised to be transferred to hospital after having complications.

Dannii's new arrival comes just a few weeks after she and her boyfriend moved into a £1million home in a plush Melbourne suburb - a few miles away from her parents Ron and Carol Minogue.
