KYLIE MINOGUE
When it comes to
famous person ,it is so difficult to talk about them and, especially ,choose one of them as your favourite.All of them are special and original in their own way.
However,I decided to speak about a famous singer who has impressed me:Kylie Minogue.She was born on May 28,1968,in Melbourne, Australia.When she was ten years old ,she went with her sister to audition for "The Sullivans"and got the part of Carla.Kylie ''s big break came in 1986 when she was cast as car mechanic Charlene on the popular soap opera "Neighbours".During her two and half years on "Neighbours", Kylie recorded her debut single ,a remarke of the classic 1962 track "The Locomotion",introducing her to the top
music scene.
At a first glance ,one can see an agile little Australian girl ,extremly beautiful and delicate.But when hearing her voice and listening to her songs ,one can sense her talent ,her sensitivity as well as her power.
.
It is impossible not to admire her determination when building up her career.Though ,at the beginning ,it was so hard for her to get herself known and appreciated ,she persisted in singing with the same enthusiasm and passion.And soon,her efforts were to be noticed ,her voice praised and her songs became famous all over the world.Now everybody knows them and can even quote some lyrics by heart.Who can forget hits like "I should be so lucky",Where the white roses grow"",Red blooded woman", "Giving you up " ,"Can''t get you out of my head",Je ne sais pas pour qui"?Kylie ''s
success grew even more after several duets
with her "Neighbours" co-star ,Jason Donovan.
After Kylie''s debut film role in "The Delinquentes",in 1989, the '' 90s saw Kylie turn into a sexy superstar.The newly transformed Kylie was now gaining more media coverage than ever ,and was signed to a deal with DeConstruction Records.She even jumpedon the Madonna erotic literature bandwagon and wrote a sex book of her own ,but it never saw the light of day.
In 1994 Kylie
released a second self-titled
album that was grungier than the first.She also appeared as Lt. Cammy in the live -action adaptation of "Street Fighter"(1994).In 1996,she collaborated with the Manic Street Preachers",and released an album the following year entitled "Impossible Princess"
But this is not all.As fragile as she may seem, Kyile has proved a to be a winner.In May 2005 it was officially announced that she had breast
cancer ,but she was not to give up her fight for life.After long exhausting chemo sessions and even longer moments of despair and depressions , she has finally won it.Now she is stronger, more beautiful and more ready to continue her "Showgirl" project.
.
As if this were not enough ,soon after announcing she had surpassed her cancer ,she broke up with her boyfriend ,the one who was thought to be the love of her life.This was another turning point in her life ,another difficult moment ,but as a real "showgirl" ready to fight it all ,Kylie is still standing up and continues smiling.
From my point of view ,this is a lesson of life she gives,but a lesson learnt the hard way.She is now a living model for all those strong persons who fight their destinies and are determined to win.
Now I can say that not only I admire her ,but she also serves as a role model for me.
