It is mind-blowing to me that so many people have known me — or at least, a public version of me – since I was a teenager,” says Kylie Minogue by phone from Paris, the bells of Saint-Sulpice church ringing loudly in the background. “My fans have seen me in many stages of life, through the challenges, highs and lows. They are my community and I’ve never taken any of this for granted,” she says. “It would be a very lonely place to have success and no one to share it with.”
It has been an incredibly busy past couple of years for Minogue, despite the pandemic. “I lost track of how long I did nothing, just going to the fridge 17 times a day, rotating the same three T-shirts and two track pants, and cleaning,” Minogue says of those early lockdown days, but panic set in and she decided to use that time to teach herself some new tricks.
