Minogue’s birthday celebrations come after it was reported that she will extend her wildly popular Las Vegas residency at the Voltaire, which ended on 4 May after 20 shows.

At curtain of the last show, Minogue teased, “I cannot wait to see you again.”

The Sun reported that Michael Gruber, the venue’s boss, considers Minogue’s invitation to perform for life.

“Michael absolutely loves Kylie and doesn’t want to lose her. It is the first ‘residency for life,’ where you come and go based on your schedule that has been put on the table in Vegas,” a source reported.
