Kylie Minogue’s big comeback is on, and the 55-year-old is better than ever.
In a year that sees Taylor Swift, Beyonce and Madonna on tour, we now have the Australian pop sensation releasing new music, so it really is the year of queens.
Just like her era-defining banger Padam Padam, our hearts are racing for the highest-selling female Australian artist of all time as she hits headlines and tops charts once more.
Following the success of her single Padam Padam – which almost made it into the Oxford English Dictionary and got a shout out in the House of Common due to its icon status – Kylie has now graced us with Tension, the second single from her 16th studio album of the same name.
Having sold over 80 million records worldwide with her throwback tunes such as Can’t Get You Outta My Head and Spinning Around, the Neighbours star has nothing to prove – but she’s going to do it anyway.
That’s something Kylie chatted about in her cover star interview with Rolling Stone UK, in which she looks totally fierce, of course.
‘Sometimes [a long break] crosses my mind, but it’s fairly fleeting,’ she star said.
‘There’s a song that hasn’t been written yet. Padam Padam didn’t exist a year ago.
‘I guess the ultimate seduction or challenge is to create that three and a half minutes of transformative magic.
‘You want to try and keep getting that high [of] affecting someone positively,’ she added.
The iconic cover sees the All The Lovers hitmaker strike a dangerous pose with bright crimson hair, blue eyes, and a raven-like feathered black top.
She also chatted about trying to keep her family life private throughout the years, which she said wasn’t a decision, but a necessary reaction.
‘It wasn’t a decision [to stay private],’ she said.
‘It was a reaction to protect myself and to protect my family because they would go through it with you.’
One of Kylie’s biggest moments was undoubtedly playing the Legends Slot at Glastonbury Festival in 2019, this year taken by Wild World singer Cat Stevens/Yusuf.
Kylie explainedit is a ‘huge deal’ for her to admit she deserved to be there.
‘I don’t know that everyone knows the extent of what it’s taken for me to keep doing this,’ she said.
‘That respect is there. It’s taken its good old time. I feel a lot more peaceful than I did a while ago. It doesn’t change my drive and determination.’
We’re all listening, Kylie. Padam, Padam.
