They sang Love Sensation (Afterhours Mix) and a duet of Sorry, which they widely shared across their social media accounts.
Australian personality Courtney Act shared a clip of the performance on social media, writing, “The Queen and Princess of Pop together at last, and for World Pride really feels like the only correct time to do it”.
In June, during Madonna’s appearance on the Graham Norton show, Minogue popped in posing as a barmaid, sparking rumours the pair may collaborate.
During that interview, they spoke about Madonna’s outfit at the MTV Europe Music Awards: a bedazzled Kylie Minogue shirt.
“There was no warning,” Minogue said, adding that she “probably stopped shy of fainting” when she saw it.
Madonna then made a surprising revelation.
“I was actually a little bit jealous of you,” she told Kylie.
“Why?” asked Norton.
“Because she was so cute,” Madonna replied.
“I think my ex-husband at the time (Guy Ritchie) had a crush on her, and I was like, ‘I’ll never be as beautiful as Kylie’.”
While the pair have never released a song together, they performed a cover of Gloria Gaynor’s I Will Always Love You in 2024, as well as an a cappella version of Minogue’s Can’t Get You Out of My Head.
