Birth Name:
Kylie Ann Minogue
Kylie Ann Minogue was born on 28 May, 1968. The eldest of three children, Kylie's acting career began early, but it was her role as Charlene in the Australian soap "Neighbours" (1985) which established Kylie as an international star. Her singing career began purely by accident when a record company executive heard Kylie's rendition of Little Eva's 1962 hit "The Loco-Motion." She signed with PWL Records and hitmakers Stock/Aitken/Waterman in 1987. Five albums and a greatest hits compilation followed, and she made history by having more than 20 consecutive top ten hits in the UK. Her motionMore picture debut came with the starring role of Lola in Delinquents, The (1989). She left PWL Records in 1992 to head in a decidedly more mature musical direction, and her self-titled debut on deConstruction records was released in 1994, spawning chart hits like "Confide In Me" and "Put Yourself In My Place." Kylie's doings were always a favourite subject of the press, but she really made waves with her controversial 1995 duet with Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, "Where the Wild Roses Grow." 1997 saw the release of Kylie's first single in more than 3 years, "Some Kind of Bliss" co-written and produced by James Dean Bradfield and Sean Moore of The Manic Street Preachers.

    Another pop idol of mine. hide show

    I love Kylie Minogue. She has such a beautiful voice, and her music is very unique. I have a big mix of her big hits like "Can't Get You Outta My Head," "I Believe In You," "Come Into My World," "Loving Days," "Love At First Sight," and more. She has a very sweet voice which matches her songs.

    I also know she was diagnosed with Breast Cancer last year. I didn't know that until a few weeks ago. When I found that out, I cried. I haven't read anything new yet, but I really hope she recovers from this. I know she's being treated for it though. Damn it I wish Breast Cancer didn't exist!

    Like Kate Bush, Kylie's a great role model too. They both have been through a lot. And I think Kylie's very strong. She's hanging in there, and I think she'll make it. I believe in her. Honestly, I don't know how I'd handle myself if I had cancer.

    God bless you Kylie. You're very strong.

    Bubbly Personality ... you can always count on Kylie for a smile. hide show

    I have been a Kylie fan for years!
    I started watching her on Neighbours when I was very young and wished she did a bit more acting but music is her passion.
    In Australia I grew up with her music and the style and beat of it always makes me happy.
    In all the interviews I have seen of her she is always happy and smiling even if she is going through tough times.

    A fantastic person!! hide show

    Ok who can see this kindhearted girl and not love her??!! Kylie Minogue is great! I'm 12 years old and I listen to Kylie's CDs all the time!! I think she is fantastic and she does so much for people with cancer. Just by visiting these sick people she makes their day! and when she was diagnosed with breast cancer the first thing she thought about was her fans and the upcoming concert. She fought so hard!! I admire her for that and if I ever get a sickness like that i'll think of Kylie as my inspiration!!! She is just so wonderful!!

    Kylie Minogue is 37-years-old, and she is a singer and actress born in Melbourne, Australia. hide show

    Kylie Minogue needs to be more popular in the US! She's pretty and an excellent singer, I'm surprised she isn't better known in this country. You may be farmiliar with her chart topping singles "Can Get You Out of My Head" and "Love At First Sight". Kylie is popular in Australia and in the UK, but few know her here. She's also an actress. I have never seen her act, but I know she has been in some Australian soaps. She's not famous for acting here, either. If you are a fan of Kylie Minogue, or if you just recognize any of her work, please spread the word. Kylie rules!
