“I don’t know if I’m a stadium performer, but maybe this is the time to put it on the table. “I would love to do that one great show and bring it all together,” she said.
The star said a major performance was on her mind after surprising fans with a surprise performance at Capital’s Summer Time Ball show at Britain’s 90,000-capacity Wembley Stadium.
“When I did Capital’s SummerTime Ball, I was only there for a few songs, but I have to admit it felt good to be in a stadium,” she said.
She also spoke about her audacious ambition to crack the US charts, saying she “kinda cares.”
In July, the megastar achieved unprecedented success with Padam Padam, which topped the charts in Europe and Australia.
The song has become her first UK top 10 hit as a lead artist since 2010, and Minogue is the first woman over 50 to be playlisted as a lead artist on BBC Radio 1.
Padam Padam was also Kylie’s first ever top 10 Dance/Electronic song on the US Billboard chart.
