HUTCHENCE'S BROTHER: 'KYLIE AND BONO SO RESPECTFUL TO MICHAEL'S MEMORY'

Late INXS frontman MICHAEL HUTCHENCE's brother RHETT made sure the upcoming biopic about his brother was kind to former lover KYLIE MINOGUE and friend BONO, because they have both been so respectful of the singer's memory.

Hutchence is a consultant on the film SLIDE AWAY, and insists the movie will give people a true sense of who the NEW SENSATION singer really was.

He tells website TheHollywoodNews.com, "Michael's life was an interesting one. God he lived. The project (handles the subject matter) in a way I believe everyone is treated pretty fairly.

"(It's) a very difficult task to constrict something like this in such a manner that is honourable to Michael's memory, to my niece (HEAVENLY HIRAANI TIGER LILY HUTCHENCE) to Kylie, etc."

Hutchence says he "can't say enough good things" about the SPINNING AROUND singer and is grateful to her and U2 frontman Bono for being discreet after Michael's death.

He adds, "They've been respectful to Michael's memory. They know how they feel and what their personal relationship to Michael was and they don't, in my mind, feel they need to prove what they were to my brother in any way, shape or fashion."
