 Singer Kylie Minogue, who staged the biggest and longest performance of the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games closing ceremony, said she was "grateful" to be at the event.
 
"So much beautiful energy here tonight. I admire your commitment, your passion so much and I'm so grateful to be here. Thank you so much," she told the crowd toward the end of her set, www.femalefirst.co.uk.
