Kylie on family plans and new tour costumes

Kylie has told German Vogue she may have left starting a family too late, and that Jean Paul Gaultier is designing the costumes for her upcoming tour.

Okay, maybe that headline's a little sensationalist. Okay, it's a lie, Kylie hasn't said anything about hating kids. She has told German Vogue, though, that she thinks that, with her 40th birthday coming up next month, she might have left it a bit too late to start a family.

She said: "I never had the feeling I was made for a conventional marriage with a house in the suburbs. Media interest in 'supermothers', who are simultaneously on stage and bringing up children, is understandable. But for many that is too much of a good thing. There are artists such as Debbie Harry or Dolly Parton who have managed to have an unbelievable career without a family. Above everything else, it comes down to how much love you have in you and if you are ready to give that love. How things will turn out for me with regards to family I simply can't yet say".

The singer also promised a stylish new look for her new tour, which kicks off in Paris next month: "The showgirl and feathers are behind me. I want a new direction. Jean Paul Gaultier is designing my costumes for the tour - all couture".
