THE KOOKS - THE KOOKS SNUBBED BY MINOGUE

British rockers THE KOOKS were left devastated after their unlikely musical hero KYLIE MINOGUE refused to allow them entry to her latest tour's after-party.
The Naive hitmakers were in Paris shooting the promo for upcoming single Do You Wanna at the same time the Australian pop star kicked off her X2008 tour in the French capital last week (ends09May08).
And being huge fans of the Can't Get Your Out Of My Head hitmaker, the group desperately pleaded for invitations to the exclusive event, but were left disappointed after the superstar snubbed them.
The band's frontman Luke Pritchard explains, "We heard she was having a party so asked if we could come. We were gutted (when refused). I like her and her songs."
But the knock-back won't stop the rockers trying to party with the diminutive singer in the future. Pritchard adds, "I won't give up. We'll try again next time we're in the same city."
