Kylie Minogue bringing her most lavish stage production yet to Australia

Kylie Minogue is all set to bring her most lavish stage production yet to Australia.

The Aphrodite Les Folies tour starts in Brisbane at the Brisbane Entertainment Centre on June 3, her first local show in five years.

The 25-million-dollar production features a cast of 25 including 10 dancers and eight aerial acrobats and 30 water jets and fountains.

Michael Gudinski has been promoting Minogue tours for more than 20 years but says her fans have never seen anything on this scale.

"I''ve just seen the show in Europe and it''s phenomenal," the Courier Mail quoted Gudinski as saying.

"She . . . is bringing every screw and bolt of this show to Australia,” Gudinski added.

Unlike previous tours, the breast cancer survivor plays the two-hour concert without an interval. Top ticket price for the concert is 400 dollars to enter a "splash zone" within the stage itself. Other tickets are 150 dollars, 130 dollars and 100 dollars.

Minogue: 'My heart aches for flood victims'

Kylie Minogue has stated that her "heart aches" for flood victims in her home country of Australia.

The pop legend urged fans to donate to the government's crisis fund, which aims to help those affected by the fatal disaster in the states of Queensland and Victoria.

She wrote on Twitter: "My heart aches. Send some much needed support for the devastating Queensland floods. www.qld.gov.au/floods/donate.html."

The Australian floods have so far taken the lives of 31 citizens, while thousands more have been forced to flee their homes.
