A Scots entertainer has gone viral after video footage of her singing to a pigeon was shared on social media - and reached original artist Kylie Minogue.
Christeen MacMurdie's crafty adaptation of the Australian's latest hit Padam Padam - which she changed to Pigeon Pigeon - has had thousands of people in stitches. And after being viewed nearly a million times on TikTok, the video of the karaoke host has now even been shared by Kylie herself.

In the video she can be heard singing: "Pigeon, pigeon, I hear it and I know. Pigeon, pigeon, I know you wanna take me home, pigeon - and get to know me close."
The video has had people in stitches and after it went viral Christeen even appeared on the Zoe Ball Breakfast Show on Radio 2.
Speaking to the Record, Christeen said: "The pigeon got stuck there on the Sunday morning and we were all standing looking up at it and were trying to get the poor thing down. It wouldn't move, so I started singing.
"I've been doing the Kylie song for the last few weeks because I love it - then as I was performing I realised that it rhymes with pigeon.

Jem Aswad Executive Editor, Music The No.1 albums never stopped for Kylie Minogue in the U.K. – but in recent years that hasn’t been the case with her singles. All that has changed with the lead track from Minogue’s forthcoming 16th album, “Tension,” due out September 22. “Padam Padam” has become her first Top 10 U.K. hit as a lead artist since 2010, and her first appearance in the chart’s top tier of any kind since 2011. That means she has now had Top 10 British hits across a remarkable five consecutive decades. “We were all confident we were going to have a great result,” says Jamie Nelson, SVP of U.K. Recordings at Minogue’s label, BMG, who has worked with the star for over 20 years. “But it’s now flipping into an area that’s unprecedented, not just for her, but for a lot of projects that have got so much history.”
