It was a doubly special week for the Pop icon Kylie Minogue: It was her birthday, which she celebrated with the 5th anniversary of her wine label, Kylie Minogue Wines. The birthday girl announced a limited edition 2024 Vintage of her Côtes de Provence Rosé, along with a message that is definitely meant to be taken with a large grain of salt: “It’s our Birthday!!!! Sharing today with Kylie Minogue Wines (who turns 5 today) and this year we’re celebrating with a limited run of this divine Côtes de Provence Rosé 2024 Vintage! Cheers Lovers!!.”

Afterwards, an outpouring of birthday wishes from all over the world flooded the post. One excited fan was composing a very long message with loads of champagne bottle and cake emojis: “Pop!! it quite fabulously goes… HappyBirthday.” Another gave a more heartfelt twist, “There are two celebrity birthdays I know by heart—yours and Derek Jeter’s (we share a birthday). Happy birthday to my Queen of Pop!”
Greetings in various languages were exchanged by the fans from different countries. In addition to their congratulations: “Congrats Diva. I almost want to say you’re like, totally amazing. I love listening to you I love anything about you,” gushed a Portuguese-speaking fan. Meanwhile, the Spanish message read: “Happy birthday queen, see you in August Colombia!”
Several responses highlighted Minogue’s continuing influence on popular culture. One noted: “Wishing the legendary queen of pop Kylie Minogue a Happy Birthday! Hope Kylie Is having a wonderful birthday & day. Fantastic catchy dance-pop, techno-pop, disco song Can’t Get You Out of My Head. A talented singer with a beautiful voice.” Another simply exclaimed, “Happy Birthday Queen!! You look divine!!”
Some fans went crazy over the wine announcement: “A lovely drop of vino, perfect for the long hot (hopefully) summer in the UK, or a celebration like a birthday,” while another cheerfully declared, “Happy Birthday, have a fantabulous day! Looking forward to the show in Birmingham this week!”
With an equal measure of class and warmth, a few fans dipped back into their pockets of personal experience. “Happy birthday Kylie! So excited I got to meet you last year,” commented one, while another shared, “I took your happiness at your live in Japan! Hope you should be so lucky.”
The range of responses from poetic odes to genuine wishes stands as a testament to Minogue’s rare status that transcends generations and borders. At 56, this Australian icon still reinvents herself but holds on to those original charms that shot her into stardom in the mid-1980s. Minogue’s birthday bash was a marketing ploy and a tribute to the very longevity of, and sincere affection for, her fans’ inspiration of several decades.

With the selling of this limited edition rosé, Minogue proves she hasn’t finished yet, with international tour dates lined up through 2024. Personal and career milestones came together with what makes her special—a weird combination of artistic clout with commercial glitz, through which she retains the one and only Kylie sparkle.
