Kylie planning 2008 world tour

Australian pop princess Kylie Minogue is planning a huge world tour for when she turns 40 next year, according to her stylist.

The singer is currently preparing the release of her comeback album, a year after she won her battle with breast cancer.

And creative director William Baker claims Minogue will promote it around the globe next summer with a live show.

Baker says: "I'm heading back into the studio with Kylie in February to start training for the tour we want to do in June.

"It's going to be fabulous. I have a couple of ideas but they need a bit of work. It takes ages to pull it all together so we want to take our time on it."
