Aussie Pop Princess, Kylie Minogue celebrates her 40th birthday today.
Originally rising to startdom as Charlene in Neighbours, she commenced her music career with the song Locomotion, produced by Stock, Aitken and Waterman, the English pop machine who turned out such luminaries as Rick Astley, who has recently gained Internet notoriety via the Rickroll.
Kylie has gone on to release 9 best-selling albums and is popular in the UK and Australia, but has not really won American audiences over.
She had a much publicized battle with breast cancer in 2005 - 2006, during which she was dumped by her sleazy French boyfriend Olivier Martinez.
Highlights since recovering include being named Woman of The Year by British fashion magazine GQ and Glamour and being awarded an OBE.
Happy birthday Kylie and welcome to middle age. Only joking.
