Kylie backs herceptin campaign

18/02/2006 - 18:03:45
Pop beauty Kylie Minogue amazed breast cancer campaigners in Staffordshire, England, when she sent a personal email of support for their fundraising gala last night.

The group - Women Fighting For Herceptin - invited the Spinning Around star as well as a galaxy of other stars to attend their event which called for the wonder drug to be made freely available in the UK.

Although Minogue - who is believed to have been treated with Herceptin - is undergoing radiation treatment in her native Melbourne, Australia, she still was keen to show her support.

She wrote: "I was asked to participate in this gala concert for the girls. As I am focusing on my own recovery from breast cancer I am unable to participate personally.

"But I send this message with my very best wishes for a wonderful evening.

"This is a wonderful opportunity to raise awareness and also to raise funds for all the women fighting for Herceptin."
