The Australian pop princess will perform live in front of more than 20 million US TV viewers next week on America's version of Dancing With The Stars.
The performance will take place on Tuesday April 1,2008 - the same day her latest album, X, hits US record stores.
Just under 21 million Americans tuned in to last week's season premiere of Dancing with the Stars, which features celebrities Priscilla Presley, tennis star Monica Seles, NFL giant Jason Taylor and actors Shannon Elizabeth, Steve Guttenberg and Oscar-winner Marlee Matlin.
Australian ballroom dancer Kym Johnson has her hands full this season as she is paired with uncoordinated Las Vegas comedian Penn Jillette, from the famed duo Penn and Teller.
Minogue's American fan base has had to be patient for X, with the album released in Australia and Europe last November.
The US has been one of the few markets where Minogue has struggled to dominate, although she topped the charts in 2002 with Fever.
Minogue has been busy talking up the album with the American media, telling Interview magazine she wanted to make X to prove she could still sing after her 2005 breast cancer scare.
"I wanted to know that I could still go into a studio and sing and perform, and thankfully all of that was like riding a bike, but actually easier, because with everything I'd been through, I felt quite liberated," Minogue told Interview.
"And it was important for me to put some personal tracks in there."
Maybe she'll sing this new song!!!
