Kylie Minogue's 'Padam Padam' Makes Rep. Robert Garcia's Pride Playlist
Emell Adolphus READ TIME: 1 MIN.
Kylie Minogue's "Padam Padam" takeover continues with a spot on Rep. Robert Garcia's inaugural Pride playlist.
As reported by the Hill, the California Democratic represented said that he wanted to mark this pride season by creating a playlist with "songs that I love."
That of course includes Minogue's massive hit because it's "a gay bop, so that was easy for me," he said. Additional selections included Doja Cat and SZA's "Kiss me More," "Check on It" by Beyonce, "Glamazon" by RuPaul, Dua Lipa's "Levitating," "Baila Esta Cumbia" by Selena and Latto's "Big Energy."
Garcia published the playlist on Spotify and Apple Music platforms on Tuesday for streaming.
Also to make Garcia's playlist was Miley Cyrus's 2009 "Party in the U.S.A." or Paris Hilton's "Stars Are Blind."
"Music is a great way to celebrate," said the 45-year-old Garcia, "and many of these jams were an important part of my coming out process."
