The Australian singer - who battled breast cancer in 2005 - is to embark on her 'Aphrodite - Les Folies' tour in March 2011 and plans to push herself harder than ever.

She said: "The opportunity to perform songs from 'Aphrodite' is going to be delicious. It's my favourite part of what I do.

"It's gruelling, but I'd rather have that and the kind of reward it gives me.

"I'm not planning an interval this time because we're having a hard enough time choosing which songs to put in the two-hour show. And I'm breaking my three-day rule. It used to be that I could only do two shows in a row. Now we are doing three. I feel strong and ready."

As well as loving life on the road, Kylie also spoke about how much she enjoys wearing daring designer clothes.

She told Britain's Glamour magazine: "I wore one of David Koma's dresses in the video for 'Get Outta My Way'. It's black mesh with chains inside.

"I also love Mark Fast. I wore his frock on a show and it arrived so tiny I thought, 'I didn't order socks?' His dresses are unforgiving, but hot."
