It’s been a busy week for the actress who also appeared on The One Show to talk about her new album, Tension, and teased a return to the screen.

During the show, Kylie, who returns to the small screen with a television special that will highlight her legendary career with ITV, admitted she still ‘loves acting’.

She explained: ‘I love acting, I love it when I get the chance to come on set.

‘I don’t do it that often so it’s a good nose, but at the same time I feel like I’m at home, this was my beginning and I spent years and years and years on TV sets, so TV and movies, I love it .’

Discussing her new album, Kylie revealed that she spent hours recording in her home studio.

She added: “A lot of it was in my studio, my little suitcase with all my stuff that I learned during lockdown. Great skill to finally have.

“Bedside tables in hotel rooms, literally everywhere – when the singing needed to be done, I would set up my stuff. I love it.

‘One night I was recording until I heard birds on the microphone. I thought, “What time is it? 5 a.m., turn it off.” And I will think? “I’ll do one more, do one more.” I can really get into the zone.”

Kylie returns to the small screen with a television special that will spotlight her legendary career on ITV.
