In the new three-part documentary Kylie that debuts today (May 20) on Netflix, Australian superstar singer Kylie Minogue reveals that a routine checkup in 2021 led to a second cancer diagnosis after the singer received treatment for breast cancer in 2005.

“My second cancer diagnosis was in early 2021. I was able to keep that to myself,” Minogue, 57 says in the film, according to the BBC. “Not like the first time. “Thankfully, I got through it, again, and all is well. Hey, who knows what’s around the corner, but pop music nurtures me… my passion for music is greater than ever.”
