Kylie comes back with a spectacular show

Loads of big hits, and a feast for the eyes – 30 fountains gushing up to a height of 30 metres in the air! This, in one sentence, is the new show on her current tour by Australian native, Kylie Minogue, to be staged in Prague on the 2nd March at the O2 arena.

The team around the tiny, attractive singer and actress will construct a gigantic heart-shaped stage in the multifunction hall, complete with seven lifts and the above-mentioned fountains. A unique new speciality will also be the imaginative system which allows performers to float across the arena above the heads of the audience. “Everything was here already, however, no artist has yet come to the Czech Republic with a show quite like this. Never have fountains spouted water up to the height of an eight-storey building from the stage, right among the audience!” says a representative from Bestsport organising agency. That’s why the audience in the front rows surrounding the giant heart will even be provided with special capes, apparently because the water spray will reach up to their seats…

Kylie Minogue, labelled in her time by the British tabloid media as the owner of the “most beautiful female bottom” comes from Melbourne and on the 28th May this year will celebrate her 43rd birthday. Her career dates back to when, as a twelve-year-old, she began to act in TV productions. In reality, it was her role in 1986 as Charlene in the extremely popular Australian television soap opera, “Neighbours”, which catapulted her into international fame, and not only as an actress. It was also due to this role that she landed a recording contract with Mushroom Records in 1987. Her success as a singer was instant – her musical debut was a cover version of the long-running 1962 hit, “The Loco-Motion”, originally a recording by black American singer, Little Eva, discovered for the music world by the husband-and-wife “musical” team of Carole King and Gerry Goffin, who also composed this song for their children’s babysitter. After the Australian breakthrough in August 1988, Kylie Minogue’s recording occupied 3rd position on the All-American Billboard Hot 100 and 2nd position in the British Top 20 Singles Chart. By then, this lovely actress, just starting out in her career as a singer (with co-star, Jason Donovan) was already in the stable and under contract of the renowned British songwriting and record-producing trio of Stock, Aitken & Waterman.
