Pop star Kylie Minogue, currently in the top ten with comeback single 2 Hearts, has announced a bunch of European concerts for 2008.
The 24-date tour kicks off in Paris on 6 May and will touch down in Germany, Finland and Sweden, among others.  This is very exciting news for all her fans and supporters.

Branded KylieX2008, the tour hits the UK in June, culminating in 2 nights at the O2 arena in London.  The Australian singer, 39, promised fans a “fresh, exhilarating and innovative” set.

Minogue’s last tour was postponed after she was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2005.  Following treatment, she returned to the stage in Sydney last December with a revamped show designed to be less physically demanding.

Despite the scaled-back dance numbers and the introduction of an interval, Minogue had to cancel two concerts in Manchester in January 2007 after contracting a respiratory infection.  The dates were later rescheduled.

The star, whose tenth album, X, was released on Monday, said her new tour “will be a look to the future but will definitely include favourites alongside the new”.  Tickets for the UK dates go on sale on Monday 3 December and like most every fan I can’t wait!
