 Kylie is an Australian pop icon who shot to fame after starring in the Australian soap 'Neighbours'. Whilst having an australian #1 with a cover of "Locomotion," it was the stock aitken waterman "hit factory" which gave her her first UK chart topper, "I Should Be So Lucky." Throughout the late 1980s, Kylie was a national phenomenon in both Australia and the UK, also having success in Asia and Europe.
Kylie went on to have the most consecutive UK top ten hits of any new artist. However, Kylie left PWL and Stock Aitken Waterman in 1992 and signed to Deconstruction (through BMG). Despite receiving critical acclaim and working with "credible" artists like the Manic Street Preachers and Nick Cave, commercial success was not forthcoming. Leaving Deconstruction "by mutual consent" Kylie spent a short time in the musical wilderness before pulling on a pair of gold hotpants and returning to her pop roots with the #1 hit "Spinning Around."
Her biggest hit to date is "Can't Get You Out Of My Head" from the globally successful album "Fever." Kylie has become one of the most successful Australian female artist across the world with number one hits spanning three decades. Kylie is considered a national treasure in both the UK and her native Australia.

In 2005, midway through her Showgirl Tour, Kylie was diagnosed with early stage breast cancer. It shocked both fans and 'non' fans a like and the support was overwhelming. After a tough 12 month battle, in early July 2006 she announced rescheduled dates of her now titled Showgirl, Homecoming Tour along with extra dates to bring the show to Wembley, London, for one week only in January 2007. The Showgirl: Homecoming Tour was extended for another week in January to Manchester, where a number of nights were rescheduled due to Kylie & her crew being unwell. The Tour is now over, and Kylie is rumoured to be working on new album material, as well as taking it easy in 2007.Links Kylie Minogue, muslib.ru (рус.)Version Mon, 26 Feb 2007 14:38:22 +0300
