Melbourne, Australia

Kylie Minogue (born on 28 May 1968 in Melbourne, Australia) 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 The Loco-Motion,” 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, Minogue was a national phenomenon in both Australia and the UK, also having success in Asia, North America, and Europe.



Minogue went on to have the most consecutive UK top ten hits of any new artist. However, she 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 female artists in 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 causing her to halt the Australian leg of her tour.
