Kylie In Hello Magazine

In this week’s edition of Hello magazine Kylie talks about her X2008 tour, the pressures of being one of the most photographed women in the country and what she would have done if she hadn’t been a singer.

On being one of the most photographed women in the country;

“I’m like most other women in that I still have wardrobe crisis. Although I’m photographed in so many different outfits, I still have a few ‘uniforms’ – certain combinations are tried and tested and simply can’t be beaten.”

On the pressures of her KYLIEX2008 tour;

“I couldn’t actually say last September ‘I’ll do a tour for a year long’, I had to do it in increments. That has really worked. It has been broken up into phases, we’ll have our break and then everyone will be excited to see each other again.

“Initially when we were planning the tour we were thinking of keeping it very minimal and streamlined… That didn’t happen!”

On turning 40 earlier this year;

“At lease I’m actually 40 because it seems 6 months before I turned 40, I became ‘Kylie Minogue – 40’. It was like, ‘Guys, can you let me enjoy my 39th year?’ It’s difficult to age with dignity in the pop business but I’d like to think I’ve managed it so far.”

On what she would have done if she hadn’t been a singer;

“I would have concentrated on acting. I think as long as I have performance and creativity I am Happy. I also have a love of photography and graphics so I might have been tempted to go down that path.

“A great dream of mine is to be in a film musical. I’ve always loved this genre and know that it would be such a fun challenge. It would incorporate so many different aspects af what I already do.”

And finally, Kylie’s motto;

“My motto would be to find harmony. To achieve balance in life and be true to yourself.”
