The Australian star hinted she isn't completely opposed to returning to her large red chair though, but the network would have to make adjustments to get her back. "I'm touring later this year and the timings wouldn't work. We started filming in November last year and I'm on tour in September, October and November this year," she told The Sun newspaper.

 Adding about possible negotiations: "I would have to think about it. "Kylie, has a few ideas about who would be good enough to replace her. She believes whoever takes the job must be busting with personality and ooze sex appeal. "Charisma is important and that is often very close to someone being sexy," she confessed.

It comes after she delighted UK audiences by performing with former Neighbours co-star Jason Donovan for Sport Relief on Friday.The star's performance of Especially For You got gatecrashed by comedian David Walliams who dressed to emulate her male singing partner from 25 years ago.
