Brown apologises to Minogue

Ex-Stone Roses star Ian Brown has apologised for complaining about sharing the headline spot at Britain's Glastonbury Festival with Kylie Minogue - because he made his comments before the pop beauty pulled out of the event after being diagnosed with breast cancer.

I Wanna Be Adored star Brown insisted Minogue would ruin the credibility of next month's legendary music show, because her camp, pop image undermines the festival's gritty, rock 'n' roll reputation.

But Brown instantly regretted his outspoken comments when he discovered Minogue's illness forced her to cancel her debut at the legendary festival.

He says: "Sorry. It's her music I cannot stand, not her."
