Kylie Minogue 1990

Image
A New Year A New Decade And A New Kylie   1990, a new year and indeed a new decade, one that would see Kylie Minogue take control over her own career, no longer would she be told what to wear, what to say or even which singles to release, she would ditch her 'girl next door' image for something a little more grown up, more sexual, the girl from Neighbours was blossoming into womanhood. The 1990s would also see Kylie lose her popularity and for a few years it looked like her career was over but in great survivor stories style in 2000 the lady was able to spin things around and made a sensational comeback.  Kylie's first single of the new decade was a cover version and also the theme tune from her film The Delinquents, Tears On My Pillow was originally released in 1958 by Little Anthony and The Imperials, the accompanying video showed Kylie in a black dress and 1950's style hair while clips of the film played both behind her and without her on screen. Released on January ...

Kylie Minogue

Kylie Anne Minogue was born on the 28th May 1968 in Melbourne, Australia, the eldest of three children she was a quiet child who didn't make friends easily. In 1979 her younger sister Dannii was auditioning for a role in the soap opera The Sullivans when instead of hiring her they offered Kylie the position who they found more suitable for both the role and age of the character, several other appearances followed until 1986 when Kylie joined the popular soap opera Neighbours, her character Charlene Ramsey was a permed, tomboy, mechanic who falls in love with Scott, played by Jason Donovan complete with 80's mullet. The romance of Scott & Charlene gripped the nation, with millions tuning in every week day for a slice of sunny, Australian drama while witnessing perhaps the ultimate boy and girl next door fall in love. The late 1980s had seen a rising interest in Australia, this sun drenched, distant country complete with palm trees, sandy beaches and a culture that was quite ...

 Laughter Is The Best Medicine Carry On Nurse was the second in the long line of Carry On comedies that started in the late 1950s, continued throughout the 1960s and ended in the late 1970s, turning its stars into household names, entertaining millions and finding it's way into the hearts of the nation and abroad. After the surprise success of Carry On Sergeant in 1958 the team both infront and behind the camera were reunited for what would be the most successful of all Carry On films, Carry On Nurse, becoming the most successful film at the British Box Office in 1959, proving that laughter really is the best medicine with over 10.4 million tickets sold, roughly a fifth of the population at the time. Charles Hawtrey Improving His Immune System The early Carry On films seemed to poke fun at British institutions, its army, its education system and its police force but nothing is more of a British institution than it's health system and the NHS. Among the returning actors were Cha...
