The interview and photo session took place in Berlin in September. The January 2012 issue of Freundin Donna was released on December 7 and is available in German shops now.

A translation of the article is available here on Wilde Life, on this page.

The interview by Betty Brisk was published in the newspaper as well as on the website of The Sun. You can find the interview here.

The article is part of a promotional campaign for Kim's tour with Roy Wood and Status Quo all over the UK next month.

Jörn Morisse and Oliver Koch interviewed, amongst others, Edwyn Collins, Gloria Gaynor, Marian Gold (from Alphaville) and Kim. The interview with Kim took place during her tour in March 2011. In it, Kim says: 'I don't think about my age and the process of getting older very much. (...) The fact that I go on stage tonight and can perform in front of many people who want to see me, is truly the best that I can imagine doing at this age.'

In the summer of 1988, Kim appeared as Michael Jackson's special guest during the King of Pop's 'Bad' tour. It was a much publicized tour, but there are not so many articles written by Kim herself.

Wilde Life today added an article from Just Seventeen, published in the August 10, 1988 issue. It's a diary from Monday, July 4 to Sunday, July 10, 1988. You can read the article here.

The collection of articles on Wilde Life is the biggest archive on Kim Wilde articles worldwide, and so it was quite easy to find the ones from News of the world right here on the website. The list below takes you to the articles that have been published in the tabloid through the years.

Kim has started 'tweeting' in August last year, and this is the first time one of her tweets has been quoted in a newspaper. She made yesterday's Welwyn & Hatfield Times with a tweet about her garden, which she wrote on June 13: 'Have just strapped a fake owl to the fence post to scare off those pesky rabbits. Haha,that'll fool em'.

Kim was notified of winning the title yesterday, after which she responded: 'Hilarious!'.

Jukebox Magazine is best described as the French version of the UK magazine 'Record Collector'. The article was written by longstanding Kim Wilde fan Franck Cizaire.

The photographs were taken by Philipp Mueller, and some of his work with Kim is showcase on this website. The six page article in Modzik features two of these photographs plus one not shown on the website.

The magazine is apparently already hard to find in France, but Wilde Life obviously has an English translation of the article for you, including the photographs. You can read the article here.
