Kylie Minogue fans dub her move from Britain back to Australia ‘#KEXIT’

Kylie Minogue shocked fans this week by announcing plans to return home to Australia after three decades in the UK.

And now her loyal supporters have now hilariously dubbed the move ‘#Kexit’ on social media. 

‘Is the official hashtag for Kylie Minogues homecoming #Kexit? Coz if it’s not, it should be!’ tweeted one fan.

‘Pls pray for me at this very difficult time of my life #kexit,’ tweeted a Cardiff-based fan.

Australian media personality Melissa Hoyer also weighed in and used the #Kexit hashtag.

‘Seriously. The only good news you really need to know all day, as ‘our’ Kylie moves back to Australia. Love Ms Minogue. #Kexit,’ she tweeted.

Kylie recently said that she ‘can’t believe’ the public reaction to the news she will be moving from the UK to Australia.

The singer is moving back to the country of her birth after 30 years of living in the UK.

‘Who can blame her?’ Some fans sympathised with Kylie’s decision to leave London

She told BBC Radio 2’s The Zoe Ball Breakfast Show she will ‘always’ be coming back to the UK after she relocates.

Discussing the response to her move, Minogue said: ‘I’ve had friends call me, my friend at my local restaurant was like: “Kylie, what do you mean? You can’t go”,’ she said.

‘I said: “I’m not really going. I’ve lived here for 30 years, I’m always going to be back”.’

Minogue, 53, says she doesn’t think ‘too much will change’ after her move as she will regularly return. ‘I can’t not be here, are you kidding?’ she said.

‘I have spent a lot of time with my family this year in Australia and it felt really good and I have been talking about that for a while. ‘Don’t worry, I will not be a stranger.’

Minogue also discussed the possibility of going on tour again.

‘I’m dreaming of doing dates,’ she said. ‘We are inching closer to being able to do something like that. Patience. I can’t wait.’

She added: ‘Keep your disco outfit not too far away. Not at the back of the cupboard.’
