Australian singer Kylie Minogue is rumored to be collaborating with London's RENT director William Baker on an untitled Broadway project. This is not Minogue's first encounter with Baker; he was the creative director of her 2008 tour, 'KYLIEX2008.' The new musical project will be the story of her extensive musical career and incorporate the best of her musical library. The piece will reportedly be in the style of Mamma Mia, according to William Baker on an untitled Broadway project. This is not Minogue's first encounter with Baker; he was the creative director of her 2008 tour, 'KYLIEX2008.' The new musical project will be the story of her extensive musical career and incorporate the best of her musical library, according to Whatsonstage.com. 

Writes Whatsonstage.com, Minogue recently said of the project:  "I'm comfortable because it's not my life story; it's about the interpretation of my music." 

While Kylie's musical is said to be in the works, it is apparent that her career shows no sign of slowing down. “I guess I’m a thrill-seeker. I certainly don’t always take the safe option.”, the singer told 'Elle' magazine. Her upcoming album, entitled 'Aphrodite,' will be Minogue's 11th album.

Kylie Minogue is a 41 year-old singer/songwriter. A survivor of breast cancer, Minogue continues to receive worldwide acclaim. Her countless hits include "I Should Be So Lucky", "Got to Be Certain, "The Loco-Motion", "Hand on Your Heart", "Tears on My Pillow, "What Do I Have to Do?", and "Boombox". Minogue's latest album, 'Thrill Seeker' will be released this June.
