Reigning Aussie pop tart, Kylie Minogue, was promoting her new album, X, on The Ellen Degeneres Show when she shocked the audience with her candid admission.

The frail songbird was nervous as she told Ellen — and the world — that she actually had breast cancer after being given the "all clear" from her former doctor.

"Because someone is in a white coat and using big medical instruments doesn't necessarily mean they are right," Kylie revealed.

Kylie got a second opinion — the right one — before launching her 2005 tour.

Currently in remission, Minogue advised, "If you have any doubt, go back again."
