After Cancer, Kylie Minogue Returns Like "a Tornado"

Emerging from 18 months of breast cancer treatment and recovery, Kylie Minogue didn't ease back into her career.

Looking back, I think there was a lot of frustration, anger, fear and excitement. I had to acknowledge all those emotions. I'm just so thankful to have an outlet to express myself."

Minogue's 10th studio album, "X," arrives Tuesday, packed with the kind of fizzy, sexy, celebratory dance-pop that has helped her sell more than 40 million albums worldwide. She'll perform current single "All I See" and past global hit "Can't Get You Out of My Head" Tuesday on Dancing With the Stars.

Already a big seller in Australia and the U.K., "X" marks a stunning return for an international star who has racked up 46 hits but has enjoyed less firepower in the USA.
