Kylie Minogue
Although she's only managed a few hits in the U.S. since her arrival
in 1987, Kylie Minogue is both Australia and Europe's biggest selling
female pop singer over that period and a pop culture icon in those areas.
Minogue was born on May 28, 1968, in Melbourne. In 1979, she began her
acting career in the Australian TV series Skyways before achieving national
fame in the five-days-a-week soap opera Neighbours. Around the time Minogue
joined, Neighbours also started airing in the U.K.
A major celebrity on the basis of her Neighbours popularity, Minogue had
agreed to give a charity performance choosing to sing Little Eva's "Loco-Motion”.
Someone hit on submitting a tape of the performance to local record company,
Mushroom, who saw the potential in releasing a single by the popular young
TV star. In their wildest dreams no one imagined a national number one
record. "I Should Be So Lucky," gave Minogue the second of her
six Australian number one singles and the first of her five English number
ones.
With her 1990 single "Better the Devil You Know," opting for
a saucier Madonna-like image. It ensured her continued success and reputation
as a celebrity beyond the pop charts. With her fourth album, Let's Go
to It (1991), the singer also insisted on lyrical input.
Kylie then recorded two albums, Kylie Minogue and Impossible Princess,
with London dance label Deconstruction.
While Impossible Princess represented another major career turning point
in Australia - Minogue's transition to a concert performer - in Europe
the album was not considered a success. In 2000, she was encouraged by
the Pet Shop Boys to switch to their label, Parlophone, and she re-emerged
as the pop princess of old with the critical hit Light Years. The single
"Spinning Around," went number one in both England and Australia.
Her reign in music continued in 2001. Minogue issued Fever in October
on the heels of the successful single "Can't Get You Out of My Head."
Such hype around the song allowed it to become an global smash. Spots
on MTV's TRL and Saturday Night Live proved her power. Body Language appeared
in 2004.
Without anything approaching Madonna's musical strength, like Madonna
Minogue has ensured her survival with imaginative videos and by keeping
fans guessing and intrigued with consistent changes of personal image.
She has also appeared in a number of movies over the years. 1999's Cut
with Molly Ringwald was her eighth film appearance. ~ Ed Nimmervoll, All
