Aν θέλετε να μάθετε από πρώτο χέρι τα hot details του Paris - Kylie show στο Bercy Stadium δεν έχετε παρά να κάνετε click στα links και να διαβάσετε τα αποσπάσματα του Διεθνούς Τύπου που ακολουθούν.

Oλα αυτά όσο μετράμε τις στιγμές για τις 22 Μαίου, την πιο λαμπερή βραδιά της Ανοιξης όταν το αστέρι της θα φωτίσει το Terra Vibe Park..

Wired up and ready to go, η Kylie ξεκίνησε το show με το ’Speakerphone’ από το τελευταίο της album ’X’, για να συνεχίσει με το mega hit ’Can’t Get You Out Of My Head’. Σαν έκπληξη το Παρίσι άκουσε το ’Ruffle My Feathers’, ένα από τα σπάνια τραγούδια της που φέτος η Kylie βάζει στο show.

Οταν έπαιξε το ’In Your Eyes’, το stage μεταμορφώθηκε σε έναν αστρόκοσμο των cheerleader’s με αρχηγό την Kylie ντυμένη ( πάντα από τον Gaultier ) με ένα «cheeky» γαλάζιο κουστούμι cheerleader με τα απαραίτητα pom-pons και το baton ανα χείρας. Τα ’Heart Beat Rock’, ’Wow’ και ’Shocked’ ακολούθησαν όσο η Kylie στροβιλίζονταν στα στιβαρά χέρια των χορευτών της.

Τα ευρήματα επι σκηνής περιελάμβαναν και μια τεράστια ασημένια νεκροκεφαλή για να ακουστεί το ’Like A Drug’, ενώ με ένα απίστευτο νεο manga-styled backdrop η Kylie ντυμένη με kimono τραγούδησε το ’Sometime Samurai’.

Το show απογειώθηκε με την Kylie να μαγεύει τον κόσμο και να τον παρασύρει στην πολύχρωμη ποπ δίνη της με τα classic hits ’On A Night Like This’, ’Step Back In Time’, ’Love At First Sight’, ’Kids’, ’I Believe In You’ και φυσικά το ’Spinning Around’, ενώ τα ’classics in the making’ από το ’X’, πλημύρισαν την ατμόσφαιρα και δεν ήταν άλλα από τα hits singles ’2 Hearts’, ’Wow’ και ’In My Arms’, οπως και τα απίστευτα ’Cosmic’, ’No More Rain’ και ’All I See’.

Εκπληξη της βραδιάς η διασκευή του mega hit του Barry Manilow’s ’Copacabana’ σε ένα γλυκήτατο ’Loveboat’ σκηνικό.

Ειναι γεγονός! Η ’KYLIEX2008’ είναι στο δρόμο και είναι ό,τι καλύτερο μας έχει δώσει η pop princes μέχρι σήμερα !!!

Α-ΝΥ-ΠΟ-ΜΟ-ΝΟΥ-ΜΕ !!!

KylieX2008

“(The French) Culture Minister Christine Albanel called the singer the "princess of pop, the uncontested queen of the dance floor" and noted that much of the star’s entourage includes French artists such as clothes designer Jean Paul Gaultier, who dressed Minogue for her forthcoming tour.”

THE TIMES– Wednesday 7th May - UK

“Kylie Minogue changed Paris into a mardi gras as she kicked off her 2008 world tour at the Bercy Stadium last night. The princess of pop ditched her golden hot pants for a more modern look as she celebrated her 21st year of stardom. The singer…opened the show in a floor-length purple and gold gown that was more suitable for a red carpet premiere than an energetic stage show. Around 10,000 (actual count 14,066) screaming fans from as far away as Australia applauded as she rose onto the stage. And Kylie lapped it up as she performed a string of her old hits. She managed seven costume changes in her lengthy 28-song set – and even managed a few words of thanks in French.. She beamed as adoring fans constantly chanted her name.”

DAILY MIRROR- Wednesday 7th May 2008 - UK

“Princess of Pop Kylie promised her campest tour – and with the power of X, did not disappoint. From the moment she flew on stage in a dangly gold ring attached to the roof, Kylie, in a purple and gold goddess frock, dazzled.. Dancers in leather gyrated saucily, sending the temperature soaring… A costume change .. saw Kylie aloft her dancersʼ heads doing the splits. If that wasnʼt amazing enough she dug out faves On A Night Like This and Kids. …costumes for new single In My Arms was nu-rave excellence, while the Copacabana cover sent the campometer rocketing to outer space. X Factor? Kylie has more of it that Simon Cowell has high waisted trousers!”

DAILY STAR- Wednesday 7^th May 2008 – UK

“Twenty-four hours before the opening night of her world tour, .. ( Christine) Albanel, the French Culture Minister, declared that the singer was a “Midas of the international music who turns everything she touches into gold”… Stepping forward from within a gold, moulded dress, the manner of her arrival was exquisite ... Like A Drug benefited from yet another dramatic aerial display. Bedecked in red, draped over a silver skull, she delivered the song with an impressively predatory zeal. ... A strident power ballad, Flower, was easily the most traditional-sounding thing she has put her name to in many a year – and, oddly, it reminded you just how powerful she is when projecting plaintive vulnerability.”

THE TIMES– Wednesday 7th May - UK

“Pop star Kylie Minogue has kicked off her European tour in Paris, with more of the over-the-top costumes and outlandish props fans have come to expect.”

TELEGRAPH.CO.UK – Wednesday 7th May – UK

“Chameleon Kylie wows crowds on her world tour opening. Kylie Minogue promised her new tour would be ’spectacular’ and the Aussie star certainly didn’t disappoint with her opening show of ’KYLIEX2008" in Paris last night. The pop petal wowed the Parisian crowd by talking French and mesmerising them with a myriad of ground breaking costume changes. With a career built on her chameleon like qualities, the singer transformed from a Yankee Gladiator to an Indiana Jones GI. Sparing no cash on special effects, Minogue descended on her adoring French fans on a supersized skull which welcomed her in to track ’Like A Drug’. Next up it was a dance with sailor boys, then into a blond S&M geisha with thigh high thorned leggings, before finally giving her own take on the statue of liberty. Riding high Kylie goes gladiator and does the splits .. it wasn’t long before the determined starlet was locked in a cage with male dancers suspended and squirming about her. The star surely has been drinking from the cup of youth, stunning the crowd..!”
