I was destined to be a star: Kylie Minogue

London: Kylie Minogue says it was her "destiny" to become a star.

The All The Lovers singer recently celebrated 25 years in the showbiz industry and she believes it was always her fate to be a famous pop star.

Kylie - who first shot to fame as a teenager playing Charlene Ramsay in Australian soap Neighbours - said: "I've survived with determination and a bit of luck. I feel like this is what I was put here to do and it's my destiny. So I just try to keep going and this experience has been beautiful."

The 44-year-old beauty recently looked back at all the memorabilia from her career and she said it was very emotional.

She added: "I don't think many of us look back. Maybe once a year at Christmas the photo albums come out and you all go, 'Oh remember when...?' But I don't spend too much time doing that. So this year we've gone through a lot of photos, a lot of footage, and yeah, it brought that back to me and when I saw images from when I did my first record and my first album, I was like, you are such a baby! It was a whole lot of mixed emotions for me."
