Čini se kako je gospodarska recesija pogodila i Kylie koja se pridružila ostalim zvijezdama koji su izgubili dio svog bogatstva.
Kylie, koja je prije više od 20 godina glumeći Charlene u seriji Neighbours zarađivala 300$ po epizodi, prije nekoliko dana je po prvi put uvrštena u listu top 50 najbogatijih glazbenika na svijetu sa osobnim bogastvom procjenjenim na više od 70 milijuna dolara!
Usprkos tome što je njezin ulazak na 46. mjesto najbogatijih glazbenika u 2009. uspon, Kylieno bogatstvo je palo u odnosu na prošlu godinu kad je bilo procijenjeno na 83.5 milijuna dolara.
Njezino bogatstvo možda se smanjilo ali to je nije dalo pokolebati, Kylie je navodno za kratku ulogu u Bollywoodskom filmu dobila 1.5 milijuna dolara samo nekoliko mjeseci nakon što je nastupila u Dubaiu za 5 milijuna dolara te je nedavno prodala zemljište u Melbourneu u vrijednosti preko milijun dolara.
Recession hits megastar Kylie
KYLIE Minogue has joined a host of other global rock stars apparently losing a sizeable chunk of her wealth in the recession.
The pop princess, who as Charlene in Neighbours earned just $300 an episode, was yesterday listed for the first time in the Top 50 of wealthiest musicians with a personal fortune of more than $70 million.
While the 40-year-old's entry in 46th place in the 2009 rich list of musos compiled by The Sunday Times was an elevation, her net worth had dropped from last year where she was estimated to have been worth $83.5 million.
She joins others now like Paul McCartney, Mick Jagger and Robbie Williams who have suffered a 10 per cent drop in earnings last year due to the global downturn.
Elton's wealth decreased by more than a quarter - a loss of more than $350 million although the rocket man was still worth more than $500 million.
According to the listing, Kylie was worth $71.25 million, equal to that of Ronnie Wood, Mick Hucknell and Jamiroquai frontman Jay Kay.
Her wealth may have slipped more had she not sung away the recession blues to earn $1.5 million in a Bollywood movie music clip just months after being paid $5 million to perform at the opening of a hotel in Dubai. SHe also recently sold a property in Melbourne worth $1 million.
