Kylie Ann Minogue (born 28 May 1968) is an Australian dance-pop
singer-songwriter and occasional actress. Minogue rose to prominence in the mid
'80s through her role in the Australian television soap opera Neighbours, before
she commenced her career as a pop artist in the late '80s. According to Warner
Music Australia, Minogue has sold over 65 million records worldwide.
Signed to a contract by British songwriters and producers Stock, Aitken &
Waterman, she achieved a string of hit records throughout the world. Her popularity
began to decline during the early 1990s, leading her to part company from Stock,
Aitken & Waterman in 1992.
Minogue distanced herself from her earlier work and attempted to
establish herself as an independent performer and songwriter. Her projects were
widely publicised, but her albums failed to attract a substantial audience and
resulted in the lowest sales of her career to date.
She returned to popularity as a dance–pop artist in 2000, and
became well-known for her provocative music videos and expensively mounted stage
shows.
Minogue has established one of the longest and most successful careers as a
performer in contemporary pop music, and in Europe and Australia, she has become
one of her generation's most recognisable celebrities and sex symbols.
In Australia, after being dismissed early in her career by some
critics, she has been acclaimed for her achievements; she holds the record for the
highest ticket sales for an Australian tour by a female performer, and has attained
nine number-ones on the ARIA singles chart.
