Minogue replaces suspended Sandilands
Dannii Minogue has replaced controversial Australian radio host Kyle Sandilands following his most recent suspension from on-air hosting duties.

Yesterday, Sandilands was suspended for the second time in five weeks after he commented that Australian actress Magda Szubanski could lose more weight if she entered a concentration camp.

The comments caused outrage among the public and drew ire from Jewish groups, while singer Renée Geyer - whose mother spent time in concentration camps and whose grandparents were killed at Auschwitz - labelled the "unthinkable" remarks "offensive and hurtful".

This morning, 37-year-old Minogue and Australian Idol host Andrew Gunsberg joined Sandilands's co-host Jackie O on the breakfast radio programme and will continue to anchor the show for at least a week.
