Kylie kicks off UK comeback tour

Kylie kicked off her UK comeback tour in front of thousands of fans at a New Year's concert in London.

The diminutive Australian singer brought in 2007 with thousands of fans at Wembley Arena in a show that sold out within an hour of tickets going on sale in mid-December.

The show marked her UK comeback after her Showgirl tour was cancelled when she was diagnosed with cancer in 2005.

This was Minogue's first concert outside Australia since she wowed fans in a glittering performance in Sydney in November.
