Singer Kylie Minogue has told a UK magazine she has not ruled out raising a family despite fears her battle with cancer had prevented her from becoming a mother.

The 42-year-old star told the UK's Glamour magazine she has "thought about" egg donation as a way of starting a family and she had "looked into various options".

"I don't know if I'm going to go down any of those roads yet," she said, "but I do need to look at what might be potential paths that lead to a family. They can do incredible things now, especially in America."

Kylie also revealed she often looks at her younger sister Dannii Minogue's baby boy Ethan "wistfully" and that if she tragically couldn't become a mother she would be "content" with her life.

For now, she is concentrating on her health and getting comfortable with her own body.

"I don't want to lose any more weight," she said.

"I just need to get my fitness up. I do feel that then I'll almost be back in my own body, which would be great.

"I felt for such a long time that I was in a stranger's body."

I know Madonna adopted some kids from very poor countries, and Kylie looks up to Madonna as a bit of a rolemodel, Kylie has so much love to give, and these poor kids who are orphans would LOVE to have her as a mum!! Kylie, it's NEVER TOO LATE to adopt xxxx
To the negative Nancy that posted above me. The article is about how Kylie can't have children because of the cancer she had. It must be horrible to be such a negative person and jealous of everyone that has a career because you had children to young and didn't have a life of your own. People like you thrive on putting others down to make yourself feel better about your own life. Everyone's situation is different and if an egg donor is how KM can start the family she wants then I say that's ecellent and she should do it.
the problem with you and many stars like you is that your careers are more important than family.you worry about your looks and whether pregnancy will make you fat. Before you know it, the clock has ticked and your breeding days are over. do you think it will be fun having a teenager when you're close to 60? trust its hard having a teenager in your thirties.
