Support pours in for singer Kylie (BBC)
Friends and fans have been offering words of support to singer Kylie Minogue, 37, who has been diagnosed with breast cancer. Minogue has been forced to postpone the Australian leg of her world tour to begin immediate treatment. Record producer Pete Waterman, who helped launch her pop career, was quick to send his “very best wishes” to her during “this difficult time”. Sir Elton John sent a message of love, wishing Minogue a “speedy recovery”.
It was announced on Tuesday that Minogue had been diagnosed with breast cancer, which is in its early stages.

Minogue rose to fame in the 1980s as an actress in the popular soap opera Neighbours and later launched a pop career which has spawned 37 hit singles in the UK.
