Kylie Minogue's UK gigs sell-out in just 30 minutes

It seems that Kylie Minogue's a rage in the UK, for her eight shows in the nation sold out in just 30 minutes, prompting promoters to add another seven dates.

Fans across Britain frantically chased the 49 pounds tickets on phones and at the four arenas hosting her comeback tour, as they went on sale at 9am.

The tickets were showing up on eBay for up to 400 pounds within hours, reports the Mirror.

The UK leg of the Aussie pop star's 2008 tour now lines up one extra show at Belfast's Odyssey and two extra nights each at Glasgow's SECC, Manchester Arena and London's O2.

Kylie's comeback tour, 'Kylie X2008' is her first world tour since she was diagnosed with breast cancer two years ago.

The tour will kick off in Paris on May 6, following which Kylie will jet in for the UK leg of the tour just after she turns 40, starting with Northern Ireland from July 26.
