Kylie MinogueKylie MinoguePop princess Kylie Minogue has been brushing shoulders with royalty.

She's been given a big ol' pat on the back at Buckingham Palace.

But what's all the hoopla about?

She's only gone and got herself an OBE for services to music.

And it's impossible not to see why this chick deserves it - this Aussie lady is a national treasure over here in Blighty.

Ky chatted and joked with the Prince of Wales as he gave her the honour.

Kylie said: "It is an incredible honour for me to receive this award. It makes me feel both humble and proud to be recognised for doing a job that I love so much."

Well done Ky.
