Kylie Minogue and children's entertainers The Wiggles have been inducted into the Aria Awards hall of fame in Sydney, Australia. Minogue, 43, who was inducted by PM Julia Gillard, said she was “a very proud Australian”. “Red Wiggle” Murray Cook said the band, who who have sold 30m albums and DVDs, were “just a bunch of four pre-school teachers... playing music for kids”. The awards are given by the Australian Recording Industry Association. “I'm always bragging about our country wherever I am in the world and tonight's award means so much to me,” Minogue told the audience at the Allphones Arena. The singer, who has sold more than 68 million records, added: “I just want to let all of you know and everyone at home, that Australia I love you and I thank you very much.” __
