Kyle Minogue Puts On A Few Pounds

Kylie Minogue is pleased she gained weight after undergoing chemotherapy - because she was "too thin" before her cancer diagnosis.

The Spinning Around hitmaker was given the news she had breast cancer in 2005 and underwent intense chemo treatment, causing her to lose her hair.

It also meant the singer put on weight - but Minogue is happy with her expanded waistline. She tells Britain's Cosmopolitan magazine, "It was difficult but I think my body in many ways is better for having weight on it.

"When I look back at some pictures, I just think, 'That's too thin, that doesn't look good.' Now everything's changed. It's coming back to normal - whatever normal is. New normal."
