More actions
Kylie Minogue (born 1968) was an Australian singer and actress who rose to fame in the late 20th Century and continued her career into the 21st. Initially a television actress appearing in the series Neighbours, Minogue parlayed this fame into an even more successful musical career, although she still continued to make occasional acting appearances. In 2005, Minogue was diagnosed with breast cancer, but within a year was performing again.
The Doctor quoted Minogue's song "Never Too Late." (DW: The Idiot's Lantern).
Behind the scenes
Kylie Minogue co-starred in DW: Voyage of the Damned, which aired on Christmas Day 2007 and in which she plays the Tenth Doctors temporary companion Astrid Peth. This makes her one of the only individuals to appear in the series after having been directly referenced by the show (in The Idiot's Lantern).
Minogue has been photographed with a copy of the BBC Eighth Doctor Adventures novel Camera Obscura. This, plus her use of Cyberman imagery in her stage show, have led to Doctor Who fans speculating that she enjoys the series. She has recently stated in an interview that they are correct, she is indeed a fan [1]
