Australian pop star Kylie Minogue is to celebrate the five year anniversary of receiving the all-clear from cancer by hosting a special charity concert.

The singer was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2005 and immediately canceled all her working commitments to undergo intense chemotherapy treatment.

She made her stage comeback the following year and was subsequently given the all-clear from the disease.

Minogue recently revealed she would "definitely be celebrating" and now she's announced she's planning to mark the date in February by hosting a benefit gig, which will reportedly include performances from her famous pals Robbie Williams, Sir Elton John and the Scissor Sisters.

She says, "Early next year it will be my five years all-clear and I would like to do something to mark that - something like a benefit concert. We are going to try and arrange something with my professor in Paris.

"I know a lot of women went for screenings after my announcement. And a lot of people came up to me and said I saved them. Of course I didn't - but it made them go and get checked."ť
