On May 17, 2005, just two days prior to the first show of her massive sell out Australian Showgirl Tour, Michael Gudinski broke the news that Kylie had been diagnosed with breast cancer and consequently had to postpone her Australian tour dates.
Twelve months on, after extensive treatment, Kylie is ready to entertain her Australian fans as promised with the full Showgirl concert. Kylie has used her time out of the spotlight to update her original Showgirl tour for her loyal Australian fans with the new tour aptly named the Showgirl Homecoming Tour.
There is little doubt that Kylie's return to the stage will be an emotional time for both Kylie and her legions of fans. In exciting news, Channel Nine Australia will air an exclusive interview with Kylie on Monday 17 July at 8.30pm where Kylie will discuss the pain and struggle of the past year, her hopes for the future and much, much more.
