Kylie Minogue has been dealing with cancer for the last while, but it seems the worst is now over, and she's ready to get back to work, reports The Daily Mirror.

The smiling Aussie beauty is said to have been "playing around with lyrics" and is hoping to be back in the recording studio later this year.

An insider said: "She is feeling better than ever. The past year has been incredibly tough but she is determined to get back to what she loves best - singing. It would be the perfect way to thank her fans for all their support."

Kylie's weight plummeted to just six stone after she was diagnosed with breast cancer last May. But after months of gruelling treatment and with the help of her personal chef she is gradually getting back in shape.

I don't know exactly how much six stone is (I've since found out that it's 84 lbs - that's pretty skinny), but I'm not going to make any jokes about it, or her, because making fun of women with cancer will get you a swift kick in the ass from karma.

Here are some older pictures of Kylie Minogue, looking as good as I hope she'll look when she's back.
