Kylie Sticks With Aus Label Amid Rumours Of UK Split

UK reports say she's split with Parlophone

More Kylie Minogue Kylie Minogue

Kylie Minogue has split from her longtime label Parlophone after the disappointing performance of her latest album Kiss Me Once, according to UK reports.

British paper The Sun has claimed that Minogue will not be re-signing with the label, part of the Warner Music Group, now that her current deal has run its course.

However a spokesperson from Warner Music Australia has told theMusic.com.au, "Kylie's record deal locally is with Mushroom/Warner Music. We are proud to represent her and don't plan to change that!"

An unnamed source had told the UK paper, “The deal with Parlophone has come to a natural end. She has the option to re-sign with them, but has decided against it because of what happened with Kiss Me Once.

“Kylie is one of the world's leading pop stars, so she was bitterly disappointed about the performance of her album. Kylie did everything she could, even agreeing to be a judge on The Voice for a year, which is something she would've liked to avoid.”

The less-than-stellar performance of Kiss Me Once was highlighted by criticisms of her Logie performance, disappointing ratings on the UK version of The Voice and other controversies.
