Biography of Kylie Minogue

Kylie Ann Minogue, the eldest daughter of Irish accountant Ronald and Welsh dancer Carol, was born on May 28, 1968, in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. She began her career as an actress on Australian television, playing Charlene Mitchell in the soap opera "Neighbours". Minogue's musical career officially started in 1987. Her first single, a cover version of "The Loco-Motion" in 1987, topped the Australian singles chart for seven weeks and became the best-selling single of the decade in Australia. This success led Kylie to a contract with the British production and songwriting trio "Stock, Aitken & Waterman". Her debut album, "Kylie" in 1988, and the single "I Should Be So Lucky" both achieved great success in charts worldwide. Progressing from her initial image as the girl-next-door, Minogue later tried to showcase her more mature musical style and image. Her subsequent singles were successful, but after releasing four albums, sales started to decline. She left the team of "Stock, Aitken & Waterman" in 1992 and declared herself an independent artist. Her new single, "Confide in Me", became a chart-topper in Australia and a hit in several European countries in 1994. Her duet with rock musician Nick Cave, the beautiful ballad "Where the Wild Roses Grow", and the cinematic music video for the song helped Kylie gain the trust of people who highly value aesthetics and professionalism in artists' work. Drawing inspiration from various musical genres, Minogue decided to infuse all the tracks from her next album, "Impossible Princess", in 1997, with creative energy. Minogue regained her popularity in 2000 when she released the single "Spinning Around" and the dance-pop album "Light Years". She had the honor of performing at the closing ceremony of the Sydney Olympic Games in 2000. Her music videos became hotter, more alluring, and provocative. Kylie's song "Can't Get You Out of My Head" topped the charts in over 40 countries, and her album "Fever" in 2001 finally conquered the US market, where she had previously been received quite coolly. In 2005, when the 36-year-old Minogue had performed half of her concert tour, she was diagnosed with breast cancer, which led her to cancel her performances. After treatment, including chemotherapy, which Kylie referred to as an "atomic bomb experience", she resumed her career in 2006 with the "Showgirl: The Homecoming Tour". Her 10th studio album, "X" (2007), became her first album released after her serious illness. The popular song from this album was "In My Arms". In 2009, she embarked on her first tour of the United States and Canada called "For You, For Me". Kylie then released three more albums: "Aphrodite" (2010), "Kiss Me Once" (2014), and "Kylie Christmas" (2015), which included re-recorded hits from her early repertoire. In 2014, she also became a judge on talent shows "The Voice UK" and "The Voice Australia". In total, the Australian pop diva has sold over 70 million records. Throughout her music career, she has received significant music awards, including Grammy, ARIA, and The Brits. Her live performances worldwide have been praised by critics and audiences alike, and for her stunning performances, Minogue won the "Mo Award" for "Australian Artist of the Year". In 2008, the singer was honored with the Officer of the Order of the British Empire by Queen Elizabeth II for her services to music. In 2011, Kylie's single "I Should Be So Lucky" was included in the "Sounds of Australia" list, where a group of experts adds recordings that reflect the aesthetic, cultural, and historical life in Australia each year. In the same year, Kylie was awarded an Honorary Doctorate in Health Sciences from Anglia Ruskin University for her work in raising awareness about breast cancer. In November 2011, on the 25th anniversary of the "ARIA Music Awards", Minogue was inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame.

On the acting front, Minogue's position was quite ambiguous. Critics mocked "Neighbours" with her participation, but the soap opera was commercially successful. Her role as Cammy in the action film "Street Fighter" in 1994 did not help Kylie's film career, and the film itself was criticized by fans of the game "Street Fighter", on which the movie was based. One critic even went so far as to call Minogue the "worst actress in the English-speaking world". However, film experts were enthralled by Kylie's fully nude appearance in the short film "Misfits" in 1996. Her most acclaimed role to this day is as the Green Fairy in the musical "Moulin Rouge!" in 2001. Some of Minogue's recent projects include the fantasy film "Holy Motors" and the action film "3D San Andreas". Her sister, Dannii Minogue, is a well-known singer, model, and fashion designer.

In her personal life, Minogue has had less luck than in her career. Despite having numerous romances, none of them led the Australian singer to marriage or having children. Even in school, the beautiful girl caught the attention of her classmates. Friends of the pop star recall that she even had a special notebook in which she would write down the names of her admirers. During the filming of "Neighbours", a young Minogue met her co-star Jason Donovan. Everything seemed to indicate that the two were in a relationship, but it did not last long. Many believe that the breakup was initiated by Donovan, who allegedly could not accept Minogue's growing popularity.

Minogue then went through a period in her life when she transformed from an elegant feminine girl into a true rocker. This was due to the influence of Michael Hutchence, her new boyfriend, who often fell into a depressive state and ultimately took his own life.

The singer also had a relationship with British model James Gooding. The romance lasted for three years, but Kylie Minogue decided to leave the young man because he did not allow her to wear any skirts.

From 2002 to 2007, Minogue dated Olivier Martinez, who stood by her during her battle with cancer.

In 2010, a new man entered the singer's life. This time, she began dating a model from Spain named Andrés Velencoso. The relationship lasted for three years.

For about three years, Kylie's heart was free, but soon she was seen in the company of actor Joshua Sasse.

Sasse and Minogue met in September 2015 while filming the series "Galavant". The British actor played the lead role, and Minogue became a star guest in the second season. It is known that Sasse is 19 years younger than Minogue.

The couple was preparing to get married, but in 2017 it was announced that Kylie and Joshua had ended their relationship. Kylie Minogue announced this on her Instagram.

In 2016, Kylie Minogue revealed in an interview with The Sunday Times Magazine that she is unlikely to ever become a mother because she cannot have children due to the dangerous cancer disease that became an obstacle to realizing her dream.

In February 2017, it was announced that Kylie Minogue had won a court case against American model Kylie Jenner. The Australian singer prohibited Jenner from using her name in the cosmetics line.

The popular performer submitted a request to the US Patent and Trademark Office. In her statement, the Australian explained why Jenner does not have the right to start production under the Kylie brand. Previously, Minogue demanded that Kylie Jenner's cosmetics line be banned, as Jenner is the sister of American model Kim Kardashian.

In April 2017, Australian media suspected Kylie Minogue of being in a romantic relationship with British Prince Andrew. New Idea, citing insider information from the couple's circle, reported that the prince and the pop star were inseparable.

However, British media outlets do not confirm these reports, calling them "strange". The celebrities themselves have not made any comments at this time.

Kylie Minogue continues to actively develop her business ventures. The Australian singer presented her debut eyewear collection, released in collaboration with the brand Specsavers, and became the face of their advertising campaign. In the published photos, the singer once again amazed fans with her appearance (Kylie's height is 153 cm, weight is 49 kg), stunning figure, and impeccable style.
