Tropes
- Action Girl: Rather fond of this trope.
- Anti-Love Song: "State Of Mind", "Naughty Girl"
- Auto Tune: Used to vocoder her voice in most of "State Of Mind."
- Artist Disillusionment:
"No one can make any money. It was a really tough slog and I had a good go at it, but it was difficult. You put in so much effort and put in so many long hours for not much
return. I was making all my money from endorsements and appearances, but I didn't make
that much from the actual record sales. I think everyone is suffering in the music industry. It wasn't just me. I do something until it's not fun any more and then move on. Music wasn't fun any more."
- Anti-Love Song: "Naughty Girl", "State Of Mind", "Ricochets".
- Break Up Song: Naughty Girl, City Ain't Big Enough, Whoop.

- Cover Version: "Kiss Kiss" Was a cover of a cover of the Turkish singer Tarkan's "Kiss Kiss".

- Hotter and Sexier: "State Of Mind".
- Intercourse with You: Most of State Of Mind
- Lens Flare Censor: Kiss Kiss Video
- Love Is A Drug: "State Of Mind", "Desire".
- New Sound Album: "State Of Mind" was rather forward thinking electric pop.
- Obsession Song: "Desire" "Tongue Tied" "Double Take", "Everything I Hate"
- Silly Love Songs: "Double Take"
- Spiritual Successor: Kind of filled in the space between Kylie Minogue albums in 2002 and 2003.
- Refuge in Audacity: In her time she was particularly seen as out there.
- The Rival: To Delta Goodrem, to Kylie Minogue, To Vanessa Amorosi, to Britney Spears in various ways in her time.
