Sydney
(ANI):
Perfecting
every
character
–
a
girl
next
door,
a
fashion
plate
and
a
club
minx
–
with
a
style
of
her
own,
Kylie
Minogue
is
back
with
a
bang
in
a
new
avatar
for
her
new
album
The
Australian
pop
star
has
transformed
herself
into
the
character
of
the
Greek
goddess
of
love,
beauty
and
sexuality,
Aphrodite,
for
the
launch
of
her
album
of
the
same
name.
The
sexy
lead
single,
'All
the
Lovers",
officially
released
this
week,
already
popular
with
fans.
Rumour
has
it
that
she
may
even
tour
Australia
to
promote
the
album.
“For
me,
the
most
exciting
part
of
this
is
still
performing
and
the
energy
from
that
.
.
.
I
really
want
to
do
a
festival," the
Sydney
Morning
Herald
quoted
Minogue
as
saying.
The
star
claims
her
inspiration
for
one
great
makeover
after
another
is
Madonna.
"Madonna's
the
queen
of
pop,
I'm
the
princess.
I'm
quite
happy
with
that.
Her
huge
influence
on
the
world,
in
pop
and
fashion,
meant
that
I
wasn't
immune
to
the
trends
she
created.
But
in
the
beginning,
she
made
it
difficult
for
artists
like
me;
she
had
done
everything
there
was
to
be
done."
Minogue
rocked
the
stage
with
her
earlier
makeovers
in
'Confide
in
Me",
and
'I
Should
Be
So
Lucky"
and
she
admits
that
they
came
out
as
an
expression
of
how
she
felt
at
the
time.
"If
I
parallel
my
private
life
to
my
career,
there's
a
reason
for
all
of
those
changes,"
she
said.
"I
was
the
girl
next
door,
then
I
was
rebelling,
then
I
was
vamping
it
up.
It's
all
what
I
was
feeling
at
the
time.
I
can
be
a
little
embarrassed
about
it
but
that's
part
of
growing
up
in
public."
Minogue
describes
her
new
album
'Aphrodite"
as
'euphoric
pop".
"It
is
a
very
lean
album,"
she
said.
"There
is
nothing
spare,
nothing
unnecessary
and
absolutely
no
fat
at
all.
My
favourite
song
is
Aphrodite,
the
title
track.
There's
a
lyric
about
me
being
fierce,
which
I
like."
