KYLIE
APHRODITE LES FOLIES
LIVE IN LONDON

“The pop princess set a new benchmark for arena shows with Les Folies and redefined the term ‘spectacular’ along the way” – Daily Star

CD/DVD & 2D/3D BLU-RAY RELEASED NOVEMBER 28th

Parlophone will release Kylie’s amazing performance ‘Aphrodite - Les Folies’, filmed live at London’s O2 Arena last April, on CD, DVD and Blu-ray on November 28th. The tour was Kylie’s most ambitious and spectacular to date and the DVD footage, filmed over 2 nights, captures the show at its absolute peak. Directed by William Baker and Marcus Viner, all formats also feature an exclusive tour documentary.

The ultra theatrical tour was devised with Kylie’s creative director, William Baker and toured 5 continents, 27 countries, 55 cities, 77 shows, with 150 days on the road, 85,000km travelled and audience numbers in excess of 575,000.

With costumes created exclusively for Kylie by Dolce & Gabbana, the stage show followed an enchanting Greek mythology theme, and featured an astonishing water finale. This was a show that truly redefined what a pop concert could be.

Right now Kylie has just finished up the Australian leg of the tour and is now on the Asian leg with the tour finally wrapping up in South Africa. It will be bittersweet when it's finished because this has hands down been one of my favorite Kylie eras. :)))

Kylie at the 2011 Billboard Music Awards!

2011-05-24T00:39:00.004-04:00

Goddess Kylie attended the Billboard Music Awards last night looking absolutely stunning. The red carpet look she sported was a cute black dress with some fierce pumps and she literally almost stole the show with the outfit she wore when presenting the Black Eyed Peas. She might be turning 43 but she's still got a very hot figure. Bitch is still putting all of the younger pop whores to shame!

Billboard.com reviews 'Aphrodite Live 2011'

2011-05-16T15:39:00.003-04:00

http://www.billboard.com/events/kylie-minogue-brings-aphrodite-spectacle

For the unaware U.S. pop fan, Kylie Minogue's first show of a three-night run at New York's Hammerstein Ballroom would appear to be an overindulgent spectacle. A two-hour running time, multiple costume changes, a golden Pegasus on stage and half-naked dancers suspended in air -- isn't this the "Loco-Motion" and "Can't Get You Out of My Head" two-hit wonder?
http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif
Of course, Minogue's faithful know better, and were out in droves on Monday night (May 2) to celebrate an international star whose back catalog has never received its deserving embrace from the stateside mainstream.

Yes, Minogue played "Can't Get You Out of My Head" (with a crunchy rock twist, no less), but the set list was littered with equally infectious dance tracks, from "In My Arms" to "Wow," to which her diehard fans knew every word. It also leaned heavily on Minogue's last album, 2010's "Aphrodite," but the epic "Looking For an Angel" and triumphant set-capper "Put Your Hands Up (If You Feel Love)" fit in nicely with the rest of Minogue's oeuvre. "All The Lovers," which Minogue used to close the night as confetti rained upon the crowd, transformed from an uneven album opener to an unstoppable anthem within the blink of an eye.

As much as the songs popped, Minogue was buoyed by an eye-catching set design that involved a trio of staircases, huge white pillars and a massive HD video screen that showed images like raindrops in the shape of hearts. Each song carried its own clever theme, with dancers dressed as Roman warriors during one song and Arabian slaves the next.

Minogue, to her credit, kept pace with the theatrics, gyrating alongside her backup dancers and forcing the high notes to hit the rafters. Monday night proved that, at 42, Minogue is still an under-appreciated musical force, and one that should not be missed on an all-too-rare U.S. trek.

Oi!

Been a home a few days now from my trip to DC this past weekend and I shall be posting a review of Aphrodite Live in a bit! :)

South Africa is getting the Aphrodite 2011 World tour!

2011-04-21T12:54:00.003-04:00

From kylie.com

International pop star Kylie Minogue has announced South African dates for her “Aphrodite Live” 2011 World Tour. She will be performing at the Sun City Superbowl in Johannesburg on the 8th, & 9th July 2011 and the Grand Arena in Cape Town on the 13th & 14th July 2011.

Kylie has been touring since February this year and has been receiving some of the best reviews of her career with The Telegraph in the UK declaring ‘Kylie Minogue is not just a pop star any more, she is a veritable goddess’ whilst the Irish Independent said “It is unlikely you will see a more lavish event this year”. Kylie commented “I have been looking for an opportunity to perform in South Africa for a very long time so I am really delighted that I can now confirm I will be visiting Johannesburg and Cape Town in July this year. I’ve been having a wonderful time touring Aphrodite and I’m absolutely thrilled I will be able to bring ‘Aphrodite Live’ to South Africa.

Aphrodite was released in July 2010 and became Kylie’s fifth #1 album in the UK, hitting the top spot a full 22 years to the week since her debut album Kylie entered the chart. The album also made Kylie the first solo artist in the history of the UK charts to have a #1 album in four different decades. Around the globe Aphrodite debuted in the top 10 in thirteen different countries. Over the course of her extraordinary 20-plus-year-career, Kylie Minogue has been a global force in pop music and is one of the world’s most successful female artists with more than 60 million albums sold worldwide, 50 hit singles including the dance-chart-toppers “Can’t Get You Out of My Head,” “Love At First Sight,” “Slow,” and the Grammy-Award winning “Come Into My World.” She has received countless awards and accolades including an OBE from the Queen, 9 sold-out world tours including her current Aphrodite tour which will have travelled to 27 countries throughout Europe, Japan, Australia, Asia and now coming to South Africa.

Kylie has released eleven studio albums, three live CDs, eight live concert DVD’s, plus her Greatest Hits, Ultimate Kylie double album and several remix albums. Kylie has her own successful bed linen line “Kylie Minogue at Home” and has released 8 fragrances from her ‘Kylie Minogue House of Parfums’.

Fabulous news for fans in South Africa! There are supposed to be dates announced for Indonesia, Phillipines, and Hong Kong as well, a date in Bangkok was announced yesterday. :)

Well with X2008 we thought there was no way Kylie could top herself but she has yet done it again. Watching the videos on youtube and looking at pictures from the concert makes me wish I could sale all of my belongs just go see the 'Les Folies' version of the tour with the excellent fountains of water. I'll make do with seeing her in Washington, DC in April though. I'm certainly about as wet right now as those people who were in the splash zone.

Besides the Germany's Next Top Model performance of 'All The Lovers' and X Factor performance of 'Better Than Today' the megamix that Kylie performed at the EXA concert in Mexico is definitely up there as one of my faves from the era. Clocking in at around half an hour I find myself extremely jealous of the Mexican fans who got to see it live!

The video first made the top 20 two weeks ago entering in at #20 and last week it moved up one spot to #19. The video for Get Outta My Way has since been playlisted by VH1 and MTV Hits.

2011-01-06T17:24:00.003-05:00

This is the second time Kylie has performed on the Jools Holland Hootenany, she first performed on the special back in 2007 during the promotional tour for X. This year she performed her recent mega smash hit Better Than Today, a cover of the Bloosom Dearie song Try Your Wings, and Love at First Sight. Watch all the performances below!

'Last.fm's Best of 2010' Kylie at #40!

2010-12-27T20:08:00.004-05:00

Kylie made Last.fm's annual 'best of' list for 2010. The list features 40 of the hottest artists on Last.fm based on track scrobbles made by users. This past year alone there have been over 3.5 million Kylie songs scrobbled by Last.fm users with a cumulative amount of 30,402,043 tracks. Not bad at all!

Is it over yet?

2010-12-27T19:59:00.002-05:00

The holiday season is almost over (THANK GOD!) and hopefully everyone had a decent Christmas/Hannukah/Kwanzaa/whatever you celebrate. 2011 is set to be a very busy year for Kylie with the Aphrodite: Les Folies tour coming up and the eventual re-release of the album. So keep tuned into the blog for updates!

4th single from Aphrodite: Poll Results

2010-12-21T23:50:00.003-05:00

Results:

Put Your Hands Up	4 (19%)
Closer	2 (9%)
Everything is Beautiful	3 (14%)
Aphrodite	6 (28%)
Illusion	0 (0%)
Too Much	1 (4%)
Cupid Boy	4 (19%)
Looking For an Angel	0 (0%)
Can't Beat the Feeling	1 (4%)

Well you all voted and the results were actually not as clear cut as I was hoping they'd be. Just goes to show you we all want different things from Kylie. Anyways, the title track 'Aphrodite' won the popular vote with Put Your Hands Up and Cupid Boy both tied for second place. Those three tracks seem to be the three main ones people name when asked what the next single should be. I could honestly live with anyone one of them as the next single but I think it would be best if they are going through with a re-release to just release a new track.

Did you miss Kylie on the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade?

2010-11-25T14:36:00.002-05:00

Of course Thanksgiving is an American tradition but Kylie decided to fly over and grace us with her presence for the 84th annual Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. If you blinked you probably missed her but Kylie rode atop a float of huge toy ducks down the parade route. Kylie stopped in front of NBC's cameras to do a little performance of Get Outta My Way which recently hit number WUN on the US club charts.

If you're not American and have no idea about the parade then let me explain a few things...yes it's a total cheese fest which it has been for years and yes she lip synched as do all the rest of the performers they have on. It has been like that for years now and hasn't changed. So for all the haters getting your panties in a wad, mainly the same fuckwads over at Say Hey that have ragged on everything for the past month, then kindly move along, fuck off, and don't waste your time.

[/end rant]

The parade performance is below and be sure to watch Kylie next Tuesday when she performs on the Rockefeller Tree Lighting tv special on NBC! :)

Aphrodite out now!

2010-07-06T23:35:00.003-04:00

Kylie has returned with her 11th studio album and it's currently sitting at the TOP of the iTunes albums charts in 8 countries and at least top 10 in basically all the places it has been released so far, even in the United States! Aphrodite is shaping up to be a fantastic comeback for Kylie and she deserves every bit of the success! I dare say I think it's one of her best albums of her career. Now I just need my copy to arrive!

If you're in the US and want the experience of going out and buying the album I suggest you check your local FYE, Barnes & Noble, Borders, or Best Buy. Target and Wal-mart do not seem to be carrying it but Wal-Mart has the standard edition of the album for 10 bucks online plus shipping. Of course if you can't find it in stores just join us in the 21st century and download it off of iTunes or just order the physical off of amazon.

Check out a video of the press conference and album launch party in Ibiza below!

BBC Music reviews Aphrodite

2010-06-27T23:05:00.003-04:00

Pure Kylie magic, Aphrodite is an astonishing return to form.

Kylie Minogue. You may have heard of her. You probably have a favourite era or phase: perhaps when she was Indie Kylie and hanging with Nick Cave and the Manics; or Dance Kylie, when she minxed up in the mid-90s. Maybe you like the tinny early SAW efforts that launched her from a soap being onto a trajectory of superstardom, and breathed a sigh of relief when she rediscovered her pop mojo in the early 00s. Whatever the time or place, there’s no denying that in the 23 years since I Should Be So Lucky, Kylie has briefly tickled, illuminated or completely absorbed an area of your life.

For her followers Aphrodite is the Kylie of Fever and Light Years: frothy, intensely hummable dance pop. The sort of thing she does with such effortlessness and grace. Lead single All the Lovers emits everything that X – her ‘comeback’ album from 2007 which spectacularly bungled its single releases, and in turn wasn’t really what her fans were expecting – didn’t. With most of the production handed to Stuart Price, who has provided magic in the past for Madonna and helmed the new Scissor Sisters album (among numerous other impressive credits), this is a return to form so astonishing that one’s life can only be enhanced with repeated plays.

There are treats galore to be heard here: next single Get Outta My Way should destroy every dancefloor between here and the furthest reaches of the universe; the Jake Shears/Calvin Harris-penned Too Much is a rave monster; and the tech-country strut of Better Than Today throws up imagery of line-dancing cyborgs. The title-track is a military-drummed happy-clappy back, Back, BACK moment, which will be the moment of her live set when she actually explodes. Contrasting that track, the Tim Rice-Oxley-written number Everything Is Beautiful is about the mellowest thing here, but welcome after the tremendous onslaught of the opening quartet. Concluding with the cowbell-assisted frisky Daft-ness of Can’t Beat the Feeling, this stunning album is an all-killer, flags-aloft amazing triumph

Aphrodite is pure Kylie magic. Everything that made you fall in love with her all over again before is present and correct here. Not liking this would be like not being keen on breathing. All hail!

New York Post reviews 'Aphrodite'

2010-06-15T15:54:00.002-04:00

Had I not actually seen Kylie Minogue in concert with my own two eyes, I could very well believe she's an aura of magic that simply floats from one speaker to the next. With each stop on her radio revolution, she touches the lives, hips and souls of those blessed enough to move to her music.

Her eleventh studio album "Aphrodite" is her latest dance comet and releases bits of retro synths, twinkly keyboard pounds and specks of hand-claps into the ether. It's the perfectly crafted summer CD, so let's dive into each track a little closer, shall we?

First up is "All The Lovers" which is very deserving of its spot as the lead single. Filled with melty whispers that are familiar to any card carrying member of Kylie's crew, its chorus demands crowd participation -- in fact, the only negative is that this 3-minute track lacks a bit more time to enjoy it fully.

"Get Outta My Way" is next up, and it will not be ignored. This disco-floor explosion of pure bubble-gum greatness will play on every boat, in every lake and on every pier until the snow starts to fall. Then, if the hand claps resonate long enough, it could return next year to do the exact same thing.

Speaking of hands, the bang-track "Put Your Hands Up" -- with its cog-and-wheel electro beats and Mad Max undertones -- begs for them to go ... um ... up. While its rocky sister-track "Closer" will slowly convince your arms to fall back down to your side, grab someone, and pull them in like a blanket of contentment. Both songs are legendary Kylie and both invoke polar opposite feelings that compliment each other in that weird salty and sweet way.

The only ballad -- using this term loosely -- on the album is the Keane (Tim Rice Oxley) co-penned song "Everything Is Beautiful," which sounds like it was plucked off a Tim Burton movie. The title track "Aphrodite" lives in a silver screen state as well, mixing old school Rhythm Nation vibes with a "Lose my Breathe" Destiny's Child resonance, resulting in an old school 50's film theme-song. It's amazing people. Amazing.

In the middle are songs that paint the world in glitter and hope. The simple "Illusion" is just as magical as it sounds while the ABBA meets Shania Twain ditty "Better Than Today" begs you to snag your boots and head to the club. After your done scootin', grab your sweat bands, and join Kylie as she does her best Olivia Newton-John in "Too Much," one of my faves of the LP. It's a piano-knockin' track you'll find yourself repeating for hours ... and then wonder where the time went.

The guitars and shooting stars living inside the adventure track "Cupid Boy" are paired like fine wine right next to the Euro-layered vocals of "Looking For An Angel." This duo introduce a new side of Kylie, a softer, more vulnerable version of the Diva that was nowhere to be found on her last album "X," but is so nice to have back.

Finally "Can’t Beat The Feeling" brings us back around the planets and stars that lead us through the world of Kylie. The roller-coaster chugs and Vo-Dox vocals pair with long disco-synths, giving us a welcome back to where we started, but not wanting to release our seat-belts. Because you know you're ready for another ride.

Aphrodite Megamix!

2010-06-07T00:18:00.003-04:00

Remember how we got that megamix a few weeks before the release of X? Well they have done the same thing for Aphrodite with a far superior result. X just seems amateur when compared to clips of the tracks in this mix.

Songs from the mix in order:
Get Outta My Way
Cupid Boy
Can't Beat The Feeling
Too Much
Put Your Hands Up
Aphrodite

Remember how some Kylie fans bitched about the cohesiveness of X? Now they are bitching that the tracks in this megamix sound too much alike! Some queens will NEVER be satisfied. Kylie's got THE album of the summer on her hands and I think she knows it. The Aphrodite era seems to be going great so far and it's likely to replace the glorious Body Language as my all time favorite Kylie album, bring on July 6th already!

Let me know what your fave tracks from the megamix are in the comments please! :)

MTV US Buzzworthy: 'All The Lovers'

2010-06-07T00:04:00.005-04:00

Song You Need To Know: Kylie Minogue, 'All The Lovers'

These days it's pretty hard to differentiate between what constitutes "pop" and what constitutes "dance." With acts such as Lady Gaga, Christina Aguilera, Madonna, Miley Cyrus and even rock acts such as The Killers appropriating the "untz-untz" beats, the lush synths and inherent sexiness of club music, you could say dance is pop.

Possibly no one artist has been more responsible for this shift than Kylie Minogue. The veteran singer bravely broke with pop tradition, recasting herself as a dance diva in 2001 with one of the greatest songs of that decade, "Can't Get You Out Of My Head." Since then, many have followed her lead, with pop acts now regularly working with dance producers. But still, nobody does it better than Kylie.

Which is all a way of saying: NEW KYLIE SINGLE! "All The Lovers" is classic Kylie; slow-building, adding layers of subtle electronic instrumentation, all moving toward the ecstatic, breathtaking chorus.

"All The Lovers" is taken from Minogue's hotly anticipated new album, Aphrodite, which drops July 6.

News of the World reviews 'All The Lovers'

2010-05-08T20:50:00.003-04:00

http://www.newsoftheworld.co.uk/

KYLIE is BACK. And back in a BIG way.

Yesterday I had a First Listen to the pop princess' massive comeback track, co-produced by MADONNA's mastermind STUART PRICE (the cone bra isn't the only thing she's pinched from her idol).

All The Lovers is a No1 without any doubt. In fact, it's one of the best Kylie songs EVER.

Combine the pulsating beat of Can't Get You Out Of My Head and beautiful melody of I Believe In You - and you've got some idea of quite how good it is.

It will dominate the airwaves at the end of next week and her long-awaited new album, Aphrodite, is out July 5th.
