Kylie Minogue is reportedly planning to hang up her hotpants and show-girl feathers, and concentrate on her life away from the pop world.

A source close to the singer told the Mail on Sunday Kylie has been telling friends that after completing the album she’s currently working on, she’s going to “focus on what is truly important”.

“After the album, there’ll possibly be a tour and the final additions she wants to make to Brand Kylie, [then] that’s really it.”

“She wants to change her life. To get involved behind the scenes on a few projects and spend time with family and friends.”

And Olivier Martinez is part of her plan: “She wants to concentrate on seeing if she and Olivier can work things out, focus on herself - and even start a family.”

“She’s creating the soft furnishing line with Will Baker, her close friend and stylist, .. [but] her career will come second.”
