Kylie launches sell-out Oz tour

Draped in an Australian flag, pop star Kylie Minogue said it was good to be home as she launched a sell-out 12-date tour.

Although she now spends most of her time in London, the former Neighbours star has legions of Australian fans and they turned out in force to her concert at the Sydney Entertainment Centre.

Opening the show in a silver space suit, Minogue went through a series of costume changes including draping herself in the national flag.
