MINOGUE'S NEW ALBUM FAILS TO IMPRESS IN THE U.S.

KYLIE MINOGUE's latest album has flopped in the U.S. charts - despite unusually heavy promotion from her record company.

Kylie Minogue arrives at a recording studio in central London. London, England - 11.04.08

X - the singer's fourth album to be released in the U.S. but her 10th overall - was released on 1 April (08) in the U.S. and sold just 6,000 copies to score its debut position at number 139 on the Billboard 200.

Minogue, 39, did extensive interviews across the American talk show circuit, with appearances on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson and the syndicated Ellen DeGeneres Show.

The singer has had difficulty replicating her international fame in the United States, where her only other Billboard 200 appearance was with her 1988 debut Kylie, which peaked at number 53.

X debuted at one in her native Australia and two in Britain after its international release last November (07).
