What Really Happened to Kylie Minogue?

Kylie Minogue was the queen of dance pop in the 90s and early 2000s — when she released “Can’t Get You Out Of My Head” in 2001, she became an international hit thanks to the catchy beats and lyrics. And true Kylie fans from back in the day also can’t forget “The Loco-motion,” which was her debut in 1987.

Since then, she’s been dropping hits and topping the charts, and while she’s still active in the music scene, she hasn’t been in the headlines as much as she did in the past. But don’t get us wrong — the underestimated pop superstar might not have the same daring antics as Madonna or Mariah, but she’s still just as fascinating and has endured over the years. Today, she’s still releasing albums, going on tour, and earning accolades. Here’s where Kylie Minogue is today.

She’s still making music and TV appearances

In 2018, Kylie released the album “Golden.” Then, in 2020, she came out with her 15th studio album, “Disco,” which was recorded in her home studio during the pandemic. Beyond making her music, she’s also been a judge on shows like The Voice and, in 2025, made a cameo as herself on the Netflix mystery show “The Residence.”

She earned a Guinness World Record after her 2020 album

In November 2020, after Disco became yet another chart-topper, Kylie Minogue became the “first woman to top the album chart in each of five consecutive decades,” based on The Guardian’s reporting. Her achievement was even acknowledged by the Guinness World Records! In The Guardian story, the reporter noted that Kylie has topped the charts from the 1980s to the 2020s, and the only singer with more number one hits is Madonna.

She made a royal appearance in 2018 and had a Glastonbury debut in 2019

In 2018, Kylie Minogue was invited to perform for Queen Elizabeth’s birthday alongside celebs like Shaggy and Sting. She also debuted at Glastonbury the following year, which was supposedly one of the most well-viewed performances in the history of the famous festival. Many thought this was due to the fact that she had to cancel her Glastonbury appearance 5 years prior when she received a harrowing breast cancer diagnosis.
