Customer Reviews: Feature length behind-the-scenes August 9, 2009 Amanda (United Kingdom) 8 out of 11 found this review helpful Don't be fooled by the hype and the sub-heading 'A personal portrait of Kylie Mingue'... WHITE DIAMOND is just a dressed up feature length `Behind The Scenes' for the SHOWGIRL: HOMECOMING tour. br /We meet the backing singers, dancers, wardrobe assistants, Kylie's manager, vocal trainer 'friend' Bono (U2). Despite this impressive entourage, there's nothing really exciting going on most of the time, unless you count the edge-of-your-seat thrill of a late dancer. br / br / br /Kylie - the reason this documentary exists - comes of as dull: the 'Perfect Pop Princess' routine she's spent her whole adult life working on is boring. She automatically puts on an act whenever she sees a camera. her speeches are practiced and there's rarely any real emotion shown. You have to wonder what got cut out. We see her turning off the camera when she's had enough, and the only hard(ish) hitting question she is asked; "Do you feel trapped [by fame]" goes unanswered. br / br / br /The only gritty parts are when we see a tired Kylie sleeping on her dressing room floor. Seeing the hundreds of people in WHITE DIAMOND, and then considering the fact that her sister is the only person to voice concerns over Kylie's health, is very sad. Is everyone milking Kylie, or is she - a well known workaholic - pushing them? Either way, here's WHITE DIAMONDS message; Money over health and wellbeing. br / br / br /Something that really grated on me is the `Director'. I'm not a fanatic who hates everyone who is close to and/or is competition to Saint Kylie i.e. William Baker, Dannii, Madonna etc, but really. I thought directors mainly worked behind the camera, but Will is in nearly every frame. He drapes himself over Kylie constantly, cries over her performance with her sister generally annoys everyone. Kylie is indeed a Saint, for putting up with him. br / br / br /If you are interested in the behind the scenes workings that go into a tour, you'll love this. If you love Kylie or William Baker you'll really love this. br / br / br /Wanting to keep her private life private is absolutely fine; just don't promise something you have no intention of delivering. br / br / br /
