Kylie - Queen Of Pop

The Aussie darling of pop is back and better than ever!

Some claim Madonna is the Queen of pop, others cite Britney in her heyday as everything a modern starlet should be. However, for us here at 888ladies, there is only one lady who takes the pop crown - Kylie.
Why do we love her so much? Well, first and foremost - she's gorgeous! As most men agree, the pint-sized popstar (she's only 5'1') is irresistibly cute and sexy all at once, as Justin Timberlake proved when he playfully grabbed her famous bottom during their duet at the 2003 Brit Awards.
Her sense of style is as famous as her music, and since she's not afraid to take a fashion risk, it's guaranteed that Kylie will hit the headlines several times year in yet another show-stopping outfit. Her friendship with designer Jean Paul Gautier means she's never short of a glamorous dress or two, and she's an increasingly established fashion guru in her own right - her 2007 Love Kylie swimwear range for H&M was a massive success, not least because of the incredible promo pictures of Kylie herself modelling her creations.

She's a family girl, always out and about with her sister Dannii and citing her parents as one of the main factors in her life that keep her feet on the ground. She has also expressed her huge gratitude to her family and friends in her recovery from breast cancer, which she was diagnosed with in 2005.
When news broke that she had the disease, she cut short her Showgirl tour and a huge global outpouring of support erupted. Ever looking for the positives in a situation, Kylie diverted the attention directed at her to the issue of breast cancer on a wider scale and did much to raise the disease's profile. To widespread relief, after operations and a course of chemotherapy she announced a full recovery the following year.
With a career that started in 1986 with her first appearance as mechanic Charlene in Neighbours, Kylie hasn't forgotten that it was acting that gave her her big break. Her appearance in the Titanic-themed Doctor Who Christmas special 2007 was broadcast to a record audience, and the episode will finally air in Australia this week!
The British public has always loved Kylie, and this was reflected on July 3 when she was presented her with an OBE for her services to the music industry at Buckingham Palace, joining the esteemed ranks of stars like Lulu, John Peel and Lesley Garrett

As for romance, Kylie's relationships have often been very much in the public eye, from her famous partnership with Michael Hutchence of INXS to her recent relationship with French actor Olivier Martinez, with whom she split last year. She spoke to the Radio Times after their split - "Am I lonely? It's OK. I'm not in a mad rush. I've been a serial monogamist, going quickly from one relationship to another. A bit of breathing space is good." But rumours from the last two weeks seem to suggest that the couple might be rekindling their relationship...
