“I miss almost everything about the 1990s,” Minogue said: “There were no phones, dance music was going nuts and I was in it and among it, going to the clubs, going to fashion shows, pounding the pavement, going to markets.
“I wasn’t wasting time scrolling on socials or dealing with, like, adulting. So there’s a lot I miss. Overall just freedom.”
“If I could go back in time, I’d tell myself, ‘Trust your instinct.’” She added. “Which I still tell myself today because often there are other noises, or you’re unsure or you don’t listen to yourself. I’d say, ‘Have fun. There’s a lot to come, there will be a lot of obstacles and if you can’t go over them you’ll find a way under them or around them. You’ll find a way.”
“You could spiral if you think too much about that,” Minogue went on when discussing her career reflections. “I regret not speaking my mind on certain occasions, or feeling shy or not ready or not listening to my instinct.” She added, “Shoulda, woulda, coulda. We can only keep moving forward.”
Kylie has recently released a new album, Tension II, featuring Orville Peck, Diplo, the Blessed Madonna, Bebe Rexha, and Tove Lo, along with a 2025 world tour – see UK dates below.
