    Kylie Minogue, who is huge in Europe but marginally big here in the U.S., a stat which doesn't decrease her awesomeness, is taking a break from music. She has also split with her longtime manager Terry Blamey, who guided her career for 25 years.

    

Blamey, who is Aussie like Minogue, let friends and colleagues know about his split with the pop star, saying they were parting ways "amicably" and explained that his former client is not quitting music but merely taking a break.

    

His email leaked, and parts of it is below:

    

"After the self-imposed demands of K25, an incredibly successful year spent celebrating Kylie's 25 years in music, throughout the world, and indeed after 25 years of hard work and undeniable dedication to create one of the most successful global music careers, Kylie has decided to pull back slightly from the pressures of her career and devote more time to herself and her acting. This is not to say she will be retiring from music, just taking a bit of a break."

    

That said, he is no longer looking after her business or her professional affairs.

    

Any Kylie Minogue fans out there bummed about her break from music?
