Kylie Minogue, 55, flaunts her famed derrière in a G-string leotard

The startling image is one of six potential covers for the current edition of Perfect featuring Minogue, 55; the others show the actress in a long black wig, her hair tied up to a bunch of balloons in one arty photo.

The first cover image is a throwback to a Kylie classic: the memorable music video for her 2000 comeback track Spinning Around, which made quite a sensation thanks to those provocative gold hotpants.

The racy shoot has thrown social media users into a frenzy, with one exclaiming, 'Perfect is an understatement!'

Kylie appeared on many magazine covers, wearing different outfits for each session.

The magazine’s fourth alternative cover is perhaps the most traditional image of Minogue as fans are used to seeing her in recent years:

The 55-year-old's new single Padam Padam recently reached a new peak on Australia's ARIA chart, climbing to No. 19. 

It's the pop star's first top twenty hit since Timebomb, which peaked at No. 12 back in 2012.

It comes after the addictive track climbed to No. 9 on the UK singles chart.

It's the first time Kylie has had a top ten hit in the UK since her collaboration with Taio Cruz, Higher, reached No. 8 in 2011.

The magazine cover comes as Minogue recently announced her long-rumored new career move: she'll be starting her own Las Vegas residency in November, headlining at the Venetian Resort's new Voltaire Nightclub.
