Kylie Minogue is earning more that £11,000 a day, according to reports.

The pop princess, who had her first hit single in Britain more than 20 years ago, earned £4.1 million in the last financial year, accounts lodged at Companies House show.

According to the The Mail On Sunday, the majority of Minogue's earnings came from her 2008-2009 world tour which brought in £2.8 million, with the rest coming from record sales and royalties.

A financial expert told the newspaper: "They are very healthy figures for any business, but for a singer who has been around for quite a long time it is incredible to be still earning money at this level.

"There are few pop stars who can sustain themselves at the top for so long. This shows that Kylie Minogue is among that select band."

In 2008, it was reported that Minogue received a massive payout to headline a party marking the opening of the super-luxury Atlantis at the Palm hotel resort in Dubai.
