It will be her first professional return to North America since 2011.

‘I’ve performed a couple of times at Vegas, but as part of a tour, and particularly when I did the Showgirl tour in 2004 – at that time we said, ‘oh, this feels like a Vegas show’, she said at an LA news conference.

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.

Speaking on the show, Kylie, who is making a return to the small screen with a television special that will highlight her legendary career on ITV, admitted that she still ‘loves acting.’

She explained: ‘I love acting, I love when I get the opportunity to get on set.

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

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

She added: ‘A lot of it was in my studio, my little case with all my gear which I learned to do in lockdown. Amazing skill to finally have.

‘Bedside tables in hotel rooms, literally anywhere – if the vocals had to be done I would set my gear up. I love it.

‘I was recording one evening until I heard birds through the mic – I thought ‘what time is it? 5am – Shut it down.’ And I’ll think? ‘I’ll just do one more, just do one more.’ I can totally get in the zone.’
