Kylie Minogue’s ‘Tension Tour Live’ Documentary Hits Netflix

Kylie Minogue let fans into her private life in the recent three-part Netflix documentary Kylie . Now the Australian pop superstar is pulling back the curtain even further with the concert special Kylie. Tension Tour Live .

The two-hour and two-minute Netflix special that went live on Wednesday (May 27) chronicles the singer’s 66-show 2025 tour in support of her sixteenth studio album, Tension , which included runs through some the star’s most beloved hits, including “What Do I Have to Do,” “Spinning Around,” “The Loco-Motion,” “Last Night a D.J. Saved My Life,” “Padam Padam,” “Can’t Get You Out of My Head” and the Tension title track, among others.

“When I stepped off the stage on the closing night of the Tension tour, I could hardly believe what had transpired over the previous eight months,” Minogue says in voice-over at the top of the live film over footage of her running off the vividly colored stage amid an eruption of cheers from the ecstatic crowd.

The screen then fills with a quick-cut montage of onstage scenes from those previous eight months, with Minogue adding, “The Tension tour was everything I’d hoped it would be. I was so grateful for all the love from all around the world, and it was absolutely a chance to finally break the tension together. My dream was to get amongst the audience, to really connect and coexist. And that’s what happened. In such an emotional way, and I just feel more present in … everything.”

The action kicks off in Minogue native Australia at the tour’s dance rehearsals, with glimpses of the gigs kicking off in Perth and running through the final Aug 26 show in Monterrey, Mexico. Early on, we see Minogue getting final touch-ups before taking the stage at New York’s Madison Square Garden, a show she says in voice-over was one of her favorite on the tour.

We then see the tension (sorry) build as lasers fill the air, fans begin losing it and Minogue, dressed in a blue leather outfit, is hoisted above the stage on a giant swing, emerging in a giant projected laser diamond singing “Lights Camera Action” as she is slowly lowered to the main stage, where she is greeted by a troupe of dancers in futuristic silver helmets.

The film bounces around from city-to-city and country to country, and, after touching down in Asia, Minogue says over footage of fans freaking out, “The feeling of unity was just unbelievable. Every night, every venue, there’s so much shared, collective experience with my audience. And now we’ve got the chance to make all these new memories together.”

It also, of course, chronicles the many colorful outfits Minogue busted out during the show, from a sparkly red leather jumpsuit, to a purple leather dress and leggings look, a short silver minidress, a shimmering silver top with dangling red and green fringe, a strappy black dress with carefully placed cut-outs and many more. “Yeah, we like to change things up,” Minogue says over the montage of looks as she does vocal warm-ups in the wings with her backup singers.

The tour, which supported both 2023’s Tension and its 2024 sequel, Tension II , stretched from March through September of last year and the doc comes a week after the release of the Kylie doc, which takes viewers through the singer’s 40-plus year career, including a previously undisclosed second cancer diagnosis in 2021 after Minogue received treatment for breast cancer in 2005.
