A longtime supporter of charitable causes, Kylie Minogue lit up the Empire State Building in honor of the Coty-DKMS Linked Against Leukemia partnership on Thursday (May 7).

The trip to the States comes just as Miss Minogue announced that she'll be performing in six North American cities this fall.

With Oakland, Las Vegas and Manhattan all among the stops, the 40-year-old Aussie will also be making an appearance on the NBC's Today Show alongside Kathie Lee Gifford.

"I've wanted to tour in America and Canada for years and know that fans have been waiting a long time for this," Minogue told press. "I'm thrilled that the opportunity has finally arrived."
