Kylie Minogue stuns in 'candid' photoshoot as AFL rumours swirl

Kylie Minogue has proven she is still the undisputed "Princess of Pop," stunning fans with a series of "candid" Instagram snaps while reportedly entering talks for a historic performance.

On Friday, the 57-year-old singer shared photos of herself posing on a gold and white stairwell in a revealing white mini-dress featuring silver tassels and sultry side cutouts.

The post quickly went viral, with fans flooding the comments with fire emojis and praise for her "fine form." The photoshoot comes at a peak moment in Minogue’s career, following her high-profile appearance at the Chanel Fall/Winter 2026-2027 show during Paris Fashion Week earlier this month.

The Aussie icon’s influence was further cemented this week through a collaboration with fellow Australian powerhouse Margot Robbie. In a new campaign for the Chanel 25 bag, Robbie recreated Minogue’s iconic 2001 "Come Into My World" music video.

Directed by the original video’s creator, Michel Gondry, the ad features multiple versions of Robbie navigating a Parisian-themed soundstage.

Minogue shared her excitement for the project on social media, writing: "Chanel! Margot! Michel! Me – What an experience bringing back all of the ‘Come Into My World’ music video feels!"

Beyond the fashion world, sports fans are buzzing over reports that the AFL is looking to secure Minogue for the 2026 Grand Final.

According to news.com.au, league bosses are planning a radical shift by moving the headline music act to a Super Bowl-style halftime show under the lights of the MCG.

If confirmed, Minogue would be the first Australian artist to headline the event since Eskimo Joe in 2011, following a decade of international acts like Katy Perry and Robbie Williams.

The move to a twilight Grand Final format is expected to draw record television audiences, providing the perfect stage for a homegrown superstar of Minogue's stature.
