Kylie Minogue’s Vegas Residency Never Stumbles, Even as She Recovers From an Ankle Injury: Concert Review


Even nursing an ankle injury, Kylie Minogue never stumbles during one of the final nights of her 20-date Las Vegas residency.

Even so, she poured what felt like 110 percent of her energy into Saturday night’s performance (April 27), delivering a highly-concentrated roundup of hits across an almost 40-year singing career to remind the venue’s 1,000 ticket holders why Minogue remains one of pop music’s most beloved and enduring figures. Across a set that ran just shy of an hour, they exploited the venue’s expressive, stylized lighting both to acclimate the crowd to the genre-spanning blend of dance music that would be included in Minogue’s performance, and to emphasize every one of their gobsmackingly strong muscles. Songs by Jane Birkin (“Baby Alone In Bablyone”), Cerrone (“Supernature”), Frankie Goes to Hollywood (“Relax”) and Gessafelstein (“Opr”) provided a soundtrack as performers contorted, swung and posed, all while stripping down to various levels of not-quite nudity that were at once thrilling and titillating.
