Dannii Minogue
Danielle Jane Minogue () is an Australian singer, television personality, and actress. She initially gained recognition for her appearances on the television show ''Young Talent Time'' (1982–1988) and for her role as Emma Jackson on the soap opera '' Home and Away'' (1989–1990). Minogue began her music career in the early 1990s, achieving early success with her debut studio album, ''Love and Kisses'' (1991). The album was certified gold by the British Phonographic Industry and included the hit singles " Love and Kisses", "Baby Love", "Jump to the Beat" and " Success".

The late 1990s saw a brief return to music after Minogue reinvented herself as a dance artist with her third album, ''Girl'' (1997), and its lead single " All I Wanna Do".
