Kylie Still A No-Go In USA

The US market, unlike Australia, Europe and Asia where she has dominated, has again proved elusive for Kylie Minogue.

Minogue, 39, appeared to do everything right to promote the album. She performed two songs in front of almost 30 million TV viewers on America's Dancing with the Stars and appeared on other television shows, but her latest album, X, only sold a paltry 5500 copies and debuted on the Billboard charts at a lowly 139.

Kylie is well aware of how hard the US market is to crack with her style of pop music, but is still bitterly disappointed not to make her big breakthrough. "To know where I fit within that market is sometimes difficult," she said in an interview on the US Today show.
