Kylie Minogue And The Cancer Trap
The Independent on Sunday wrote in their editorial today: “Kylie Minogue had no choice but to tell the truth about her breast cancer because a concert tour had to be cancelled and she could no longer top the bill at Glastonbury. Now she has had her op- eration, she faces a new kind of problem. Unlike Katie Price [aka Jordan] with her ludicrous self-promotion, Kylie is a particularly private person when it comes to blathering to the press about her health, and she must have realised that the big C word would mean that she’d have to carry the beacon of Diana, Princess of Wales, suffering for ever more. Cancer makes the sufferer angry, but most women can at least retreat into the protective environment of family and friends, cry when they want to and know that they won’t be the focus of attention when they go shopping wearing a wig or looking bloated from radiotherapy or drugs. Kylie, for all the tidal wave of tabloid emotion engendered by the news, doesn’t have that option.”
