Kylie Minogue has announced a 24-date date European tour “KYLIEX2008” which will kick off in Paris, France on May 6.

These will be the singer’s first shows since the Showgirl: Homecoming Tour which she completed at the end of last year, after taking a break whilst she recovered from cancer.

Inspired by her tenth studio album ‘X’ – Kylie promises the new show will be “fresh, exhilerating and innovative”.

In a statement issued today, Kylie explains: “I am putting together a show that is going to be a new and exciting experience for both the audience and myself. The eclectic mix of sounds on ‘X’ is affording me an opportunity to explore and develop a new live show that will be fresh, exhilarating and innovative.”

“After two celebratory tours, ‘X’ will be a look to the future but will definitely include favourites alongside the new. I can’t wait to share it with you next year! See you soon!”.
