Rising media star Grace Hayden had a brush with pop royalty this week, attending an exclusive Sydney party where Kylie Minogue unveiled her two new fragrances.
The daughter of cricket legend Matthew Hayden posed with Minogue alongside Erin Holland, sharing the moment on social media with the caption 'the icon herself.'
Minogue, who has sold more than 80 million records worldwide and holds a Grammy, three Brit Awards and 17 ARIAs, was back on home soil to launch Lovers Fleur and Lovers Noir.
Both perfumes are now available at Chemist Warehouse across Australia. At the event, Minogue confirmed she is already back in the studio.
It comes after Minogue launched her first perfume 'Darling' in Sydney back in 2006.
Asked about her favourite song, she teased, 'The one I'm working on.' When pressed on a release date, she replied simply: 'TBD.'

The appearance comes after a challenging year for the singer, who was forced to cancel shows on her Tension tour in Europe earlier this year due to laryngitis.
In a heartfelt message to fans, she thanked them for their support and assured those who missed out on cancelled concerts that refunds would be available.
'Hi Lovers,' she said on Instagram.
'I wanted to say a heartfelt thank you for all the kindness and support you showed me whilst I was unwell.
'The energy I felt from you all got through the show last night in Finland.
'I'm once again really sorry I wasn't able to do the shows last week.'
She also told her disappointed fans who hold the tickets for the cancelled shows in Europe that they could 'contact their point of purchase' for refunds.
'I am so, so sorry not to be able to visit you this time,' she added.
Grace and Erin sizzled at the event, which was held at a secret location and only open to a select few exclusive invitees

She continued, 'Thank you for all your love, support and understanding, it means more than you ever know,' and signed off, 'Love Kylie xx.'
Meanwhile, Hayden continues to make her mark as a presenter, recently landing a global role with Racing X and hosting a podcast on Willow.
Attending the launch with Holland, the pair enjoyed a 'date night' while celebrating one of Australia's most decorated performers.
Minogue is nominated for Best Australian Live Act at the upcoming ARIA Awards.
Still the country's highest-selling female artist and one of the UK's biggest-ever pop stars, she has also begun to break through in the US after the viral success of Padam Padam.
