Kylie chucks in the towel on cracking the American market

In Europe and Australia, Kylie's seen as pop royalty, she's sold millions of albums, and a career in the entertainment industry spanning more than 20 years. Even so, it seems like none of this is good enough for the Americans. Countless TV interviews and performances, Kylie's latest album still only managed to sell 6000 copies. A massive flop, something Kylie is not used to, especially considering it stalled at 139 on the Billboard charts.

Seems now, there's nothing left to do but for Kylie to focus on her Kylie X 2008 World Tour, in which she snubs her home country of Australia.

It is nice to know that while Kylie is prepared to snub her home country, Dannii's back in OZ making the most of it. Could this be the end of Kylie and the rise of Dannii? As much as I love me some Kylie I've been utterly dissapointed with the whole X-era. I've been more excited than a shitty album of recycled Dannii tracks and mixes than I am about an album full of new stuff from Kylie. If only Dannii could have some of the chart $ucce$$ that Kylie's had over the years :(
