\u201cThe response to the one-of-a-kind Barbie Role Model was overwhelming, so I was excited to team up with Mattel again and I can\u2019t wait to see Kylie Barbie out in the wild.\u201d<\/p>\n

The pop star\u2019s single Padam Padam was released in 2023 and came from her 16th studio album, Tension.<\/p>\n

Since launching her music career<\/a> in the late 1980s, Minogue has sold more than 80 million records worldwide, achieved 11 UK number one albums and collected multiple awards across her decades-long career.<\/p>\n

\u201cConnection has always been at the heart of everything I do, and sharing the joy and fun of the Tension era with people across the globe has been an incredible experience,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cFrom the spark of Padam Padam through to the Tension album and world tour, this Barbie feels like a perfect snapshot of that time.\u201d<\/p>\n
