Kylie
Minogue: "Honesty Was Best Policy"
3/19/08
Pop superstar Kylie Minogue shared her battle with breast cancer with
the world, because she couldn't bear to lie to her fans.
The Spinning Around hit maker told fans she was suffering from cancer
ahead of her 2005 Show Girl tour - and the singer admits her honesty made
the experience more realistic.
She tells Interview Magazine, "Two nights after I was diagnosed, I
was meant to start production rehearsal, so I wouldn't have felt
comfortable cancelling all those shows at such late notice without a valid
reason. I also think being straight up about my diagnosis made it more
present to me, and I couldn't have dealt with trying to keep up some
facade while dealing with everything else."
