This year our very own Kylie Minogue will be inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame at the ARIA Awards 2011 ceremony. Like the annual awards this year the petite singer, along with the actual awards themselves, will celebrate 25 years in the music industry.
Miss Minogue first burst into the scene back in 1987 with her debut single The Loco-motion. The track, which was a cover of the Little Eva song from 1962, reached #1 in Australia and became one of ten singles to do so in her outstanding career here in her homeland.
To date Minogue has released 51 official singles, eleven studio albums, nine compilation albums, four live albums, and eleven remix albums. Of those albums, three have reached the coveted spot in Australia and five in the UK.
Certainly no stranger to the ARIA Awards in her time, Minogue has collected sixteen awards including those with indie pop/rock singer Nick Cave for their release Where The Wild Roses Grow in 1996. In addition to those achievements the singing budgie also holds awards for other multiple ceremonies, including three BRIT Awards and a Grammy, for her 2004 single Come Into My World.
Phew - what a career. Like many other who will be celebrating her achievement on the night, I'm so proud of what our girl has accomplished. Kylie Minogue should be proud of her career, we are.
The 25th ARIA Awards 2011 will be held on Sunday, 27 November. Visit the official site for more information.
