At the final show, she addressed the audience, saying: 'This is the end... for this moment. I love you so much – I cannot wait to see you again.'
But an insider told The Sun that Kylie has been offered a 'residency for life' by an impressed Michael Gruber, the boss of the Vegas venue.
'Michael absolutely loves Kylie and doesn't want to lose her. It is the first 'residency for life,' where you come and go based on your schedule that has been put on the table in Vegas,' the insider dished.
'Usually venues want to lock someone in for a fixed period or have exclusivity when it comes to live shows.
'But when it comes to Kylie, Michael knows he is on to something Golden and he's put the offer on the table for Kylie to consider.'

Kylie kicked off her residency in November 2023, coinciding with the release of her 16th studio album, Tension.
She recently reflected on how her Las Vegas residency has changed in its six-month run, admitting it has only got 'wilder' as time has gone on.
'It's just kind of got wilder as time has gone by. It's an absolute party,' she told People.
The pop princess also recently described her success in the United States with her residency, titled More Than Just a Residency, as 'a big win for longevity'.
