Danielle Jane Minogue (born 20 October 1971) is an Australian singer, songwriter, actress, television personality, and fashion designer. She rose to prominence for her roles on the Australian television talent show Young Talent Time (1982–1988) and on the soap opera Home and Away (1989–1990), before beginning her career as a pop singer in the early 1990s. Minogue achieved early success with her debut studio album, Love and Kisses (1991), which included the hit singles "Love and Kisses", "Baby Love", "Jump to the Beat", and "Success". Following the release of her second album, Get into You (1993), Minogue's popularity as a singer had declined, only producing one hit single "This Is It". This lead her to make a name for herself with award-winning performances in the musical stage shows Grease (1997) and Notre-Dame de Paris (1999), and other acting credits The Vagina Monologues and Lady Macbeth (both 2000).
The late 1990s saw a brief return to music after Minogue reinvented herself as a dance artist with her third album Girl (1997). In 2001, she released her biggest hit, "Who Do You Love Now?", while her fourth album, Neon Nights (2003), became the most successful of her career, and respectively produced the hit "I Begin to Wonder". In the UK, Minogue has achieved 13 consecutive number one dance singles, becoming the best-performing artist on the UK Dance Chart. She has had a total of nine UK Top 10 singles, twelve Top 30 singles in Australia, thirteen UK club Number 1 singles, 7 million records sold worldwide, and six Gold certified singles in Australia. Her fifth album, Club Disco, was released in 2007.
Since 2007, Minogue has established herself as a talent show judge on television shows, such as The X Factor UK (2007–2010), Australia's Got Talent (2007–2012), Britain & Ireland's Next Top Model (2013), The X Factor Australia (2013–2015), Let It Shine (2017), and The Masked Singer Australia (2019–present).
