The 46-year-old pop princess was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2005, and, nine years after she was given the all-clear, reported Femalefirst.
When asked why she thinks she has managed to endear herself to straight men, gay men, and women, Minogue said, "Being diagnosed with cancer is the most devastating thing but there is also something incredibly positive. It changes you, it changes the way people look at you.
"Once I had breast cancer I realised things had changed. I met women on the street and they way they looked at me was different. I knew they weren't seeing 'Kylie', they were seeing me as a woman who'd gone through breast cancer. It was like these women were looking right at me. It definitely gave me this connection.
