Glasgow: Singer Kylie Minogue, who staged the biggest and longest performance of the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games closing ceremony, said she was "grateful" to be at the event.
"So much beautiful energy here tonight. I admire your commitment, your passion so much and I`m so grateful to be here. Thank you so much," she told the crowd toward the end of her set, www.femalefirst.co.uk.
The event was held Sunday.
The "Can`t Get You Out of My Head" performed to an audience of over 40,000 fans.

Minogue opened her performance with 2000 hit "Spinning Around", and also performed tracks including "Love at First Sight", "All the Lovers" and one of her very first singles, "The Locomotion".
