Depending on your fondness for robo-pop beats, respirator vocals and spangly full-body leopard suits, this may or may not be earthshaking news: Kylie Minogue is coming to America! Twenty years into a career that has produced hits on both sides of the Atlantic, the pint-size diva has still never given Yankees a chance to catch her live act. But all that’s changing this fall, when Ms. Minogue kicks off a six-city tour of the states, starting September 30th in Oakland, CA (tickets go on sale May 15).
My coworker Mandi Bierly already outed me months ago as a massive Kylie fan, so it’s no secret I’m Spinning Around with Fever at the thought that I Should Be So Lucky to get the chance to Come Into Kylie’s World. She’s Like a Drug to me. It was Love at First Sight. Ok, I’m done. Promise(s).
Anybody else out there as excited as I am? A little taste of last year’s European tour, below:

This is the gonna be the event of the year! At Last Kylie reaches America after ruling the rest of the world already! My heart is beating!! YES PLEASE….Here I come Las Vegas.
Too bad she’s only doing a few dates.
Very excited to see Kylie! I’ll be at the Vegas show!
Best. News. Of. The. Year!
Song references made me laugh aloud… too bad it’s so few dates.
My eyes were welling up with tears when I read the news. Best news of the year (so far) and then I called my gay best friend who screamed for 5 minutes!!
adam, your headline alone just made me pee a little!
Kylie’s Showgirl tour (available on DVD) is still one of the greatest pop extravaganzas ever!! Check it out and get those tickets!
AAAAAH! This makes me so happy! Except I live in Austin. I know the rest of Texas bites, but we would love to have her here! PLEASE!
Technically, it’s a 5-city tour of the states, since Toronto isn’t actually an American city. It just plays one on TV.
There will be more dates. Once these 5 shows sell out in minutes, more cities will be added.
I totally screamed at work too when I found out on Facebook and through text messages.
Getting my tickets to the Vegas show!!!
I screamed outloud at work when I saw that Kylie was FINALLY coming to America. I have waited nearly 10 years for this moment and I am SO there at the LA, Vegas and Oakland shows!
Sincere good luck to you in snapping up tix, Kylie fans. Just don’t tell me she’s Madonna without the attitude and I won’t tell you that she’s Madonna without an original thought.
Kylie will do more date for sure she stay 4 or 5 days in the City… Do you think they going to built the stage for only one day???? Love you Kylie at list she sing live. Lucky r the Us Fan xxxx
