The series tracks her long and storied career - from her beginnings as an actor and soap star, to her many successful albums and reinventions, to her status now as an artist still releasing #1 singles. She’s managed to stay relevant for a long time, while even some immensely successful music acts tend to have an expiry date. So in this Squiz Shortcut, we’re looking at her career - and why the experts say she’s been so good for so long. Squiz Recommends: Watching: The Netflix documentary Kylie which follows her career from soap to superstar Reading: This story in The Conversation by the authors of a book about Minogue, which looks at some of the parts of her life the documentary has missed out - particularly the Australian connection which gets a bit lost.
