KYLIE: LA LA LA will include over 300 photos, most of which have never been seen before. Some originate from Kylie's personal archive, and show Kylie at her most relaxed and natural, revealing a side to her that is only ever seen by her friends and family. And then there are the extraordinary photoshoots that have defined Kylie as a style icon, taken by the world's foremost photographers. This whole collection documents a remarkable career spanning over fifteen years. There will be 40,000 words of text by Kylie and William Baker, one of Kylie's closest friends who has worked as her stylist and creative director for nearly a decade. William's unique position and personal relationship with Kylie, as well as his experience in fashion and design, make him a wonderfully informative and sharp commentator on the diva's dizzying rise to fame. Kylie also writes about 'Neighbours', her singing career, her relationships, the tours she's done, and about her extraordinary life in general. This is an inspirational study of the separation between Kylie's public and private personas, of her strengths and weaknesses, fears and hopes. It's also a fabulous celebration of friendship and fashion.
