Kylie told to 'change elsewhere'

Ice hockey team Manchester Storm has withdrawn its offer of allowing Kylie Minogue to use their changing rooms.

The singer was to use the team's main dressing room for her appearance at the Top Of The Pops Awards at the Manchester Evening Arena.

Manchester Storm, however, say they are insulted that organisers of the awards say it needs fumigating.

A spokeswoman said Kylie can change elsewhere.

She said: "We have now decided to withdraw this offer and she can change somewhere else.

"Our ice hockey players train for over two hours each day and play for over two and half hours they are bound to a bit hot. They do not do just one song.

"The changing rooms do smell but they are cleaned every day and certainly do not need fumigating.

"Kylie was to have the biggest dressing room near to the arena. Its new, with nice showers and a TV and video. It's definitely their loss."

The Top Of The Pops Awards take place on November 30.
