Frontier Denies Kylie ‘Insurance Blunder’
According to the report, her insurance did not cover an extended period of ill health. Minogue was diagnosed with breast cancer a few days before the Australian tour began and had surgery in Melbourne. She is getting more radiation treatment in Europe.
Frontier has not canceled the tour. Only 5 percent of the 200,000 ticket buyers had requested their money back, the promoter said.
Press reports in Australia estimate that, based on a 6 percent interest rate, the revenue could be earning over $110,000 in interest a month. Frontier declined to comment on financials, but managing director Michael Gudinski said any profit would be donated to a charity of Minogue’s choosing.
