Kylie rules out return to Neighbours

"It's just not happening. It's just a little rumour that got legs," she said.

2014-08-30_0145Next year marks Neighbours‘ 30th anniversary on air, but don’t expect to see Charlene come waltzing down Ramsay Street for the occasion.

Kylie Minogue has told ITV London: “It’s just not happening. It’s just a little rumour that got legs.”

“I’m just happy that… [Charlene’s] still around. I have such fond memories of Neighbours.”

The apology follows actor Stefan Denis saying he was hopeful of a reunion by Scott (Jason Donovan) and Charlene, especially given their on-screen son is now in the show.

Minogue recently said Charlene’s overalls were amongst her top 3 favourite costumes she had worn and recently stepped back onto Pin Oak Court for a 60 Minutes story.

  1. And in other news the Pope is Catholic.

    She’s moved on, and the shows moved on too. If the show really needed or wanted the character back they can simply recast – it’s not as if they haven’t before and that’s with less than a 25 year gap.

  2. That’s a shame, it would have been quite a treat for long time fans. Especially a shame if it is The Voice contract stopping her. They’ve done a great job casting her son. The actor reminds me of both Scott and Charlene and on more that one occasion of his Uncle Henry (Craig MacLauclan). So if they can’t gey Kylie, here’s hoping they can get Jason or Craig. If Craig can do House Husbands and Jason can do that Pricilla reality show of last year, why can’t they come back to Neighbours?

  3. I would assume since she signed a 2 year deal with Nine for The Voice, her contract would prohibit her from appearing on the Channel Ten soap anyway.

  4. I’m glad, imagine how wooden and out of place she would be on the show now, she’s lost her old personality and spirit she had back when she was first on the show.

  5. surely she can guest appear for an episode or two. Her appearance on Neighbours can coincide Kylie’s Australian Tour (if she has one coming up) and all the hype of her appearance could boost ticket sales.

  6. “I’m just happy that… [Charlene’s] still around. I have such fond memories of Neighbours.”.
    Umm so are some others too and it’s a shame Neighbours is less than a shadow of it’s former self in part to (except Paul) the original cast using Neighbours as a springboard, which is great but it would be nice if some of them could pop in for 1 episode every 15years or so. As it is a drama and there is no chance Kylie will come back, kill the character off off screen, have an onscreen tribute and memorial service for the character. Think of the material (and ratings kylie would at least be on our screens again in the shows hey day) her onscreen son would have.

  7. I see no valid reason why she cannot return for a guest spot. If she can make the time to film interviews, do The Voice, surely she can allocate three days of an entire year to coming back.
