Holly Valance’s Shock Comeback Song Hits No.1 and Ignites Political Firestorm
A pop comeback no one saw coming has collided head-on with Australian politics and it is now dominating music charts and national debate at the same time.
Holly Valance, once known globally for her early-2000s hit Kiss Kiss, is back at number one, but not with a nostalgic pop track. This time, the song is called “Kiss Kiss (XX) My Arse,” and it comes from a new politically charged satirical film backed by One Nation leader Pauline Hanson.
Overnight, the track surged to the top of Apple Music and iTunes in Australia, pushing past mainstream chart contenders and instantly triggering intense reaction. Supporters are celebrating it as a defiant rejection of so-called woke culture. Critics are calling it offensive, divisive and deliberately provocative, particularly toward the LGBTQIA+ community.
The song is featured in Hanson’s upcoming satirical film, which presents a fictional Australia shaped by her political worldview. Valance not only performs the track but also wrote it, marking her first new music release in more than two decades. Her brief online reaction was a single word, “Whoops,” but the impact has been anything but small.

For Valance, this is a dramatic re-entry into public life. After stepping away from music and acting years ago, she has more recently been known for outspoken conservative views in the UK, where she has strong political and business connections. This release firmly places her back in the spotlight and not as a pop nostalgia act, but as a cultural lightning rod.
For Pauline Hanson, the moment carries political weight. The song’s success arrives as One Nation records some of its strongest polling numbers in years, even overtaking the Coalition in some surveys. The controversy is amplifying Hanson’s message far beyond traditional political channels, reaching younger audiences through music platforms and social media feeds.
Reaction across the country is sharply split. Some listeners praise the song as bold satire and free expression. Others argue it crosses a line and risks normalising harmful stereotypes. Even the possibility of the track being played on public broadcasters has sparked heated discussion about editorial responsibility and cultural standards.
What makes this story matter is not just a chart-topping song. It is the growing intersection of politics, pop culture and digital platforms, where controversy can translate directly into visibility and influence. Music is no longer just entertainment here. It is a political tool, a statement and a strategy.
As the film’s release approaches and debate intensifies, this unlikely chart-topper is forcing Australia to confront deeper questions about satire, speech and where culture and politics now collide.
Stay with us as this story continues to unfold and keep watching for the latest developments shaping politics, culture and public life.
