Yahoo News Britney Spears just announced her UK tour dates
Britney’s back!
The undisputed princess (or should that now be Queen?) of pop just revealed her world tour dates – and that includes a month of UK-based gigs.
Her Piece of Me tour will bring her back to Britain, having started her Piece of Me Las Vegas residency in 2013. After 250 shows, that came to an end in December of 2017, so it’s now time to dust off the tour bus again.
Billboard revealed that a staggering 900,000 tickets were sold to said residency, generating around £93 million; making it on of the most successful ever.
Britney, 36, shared the huge news to her 56.7 million Twitter followers, much to their glee.
‘I’m so excited to announce that we’re bringing the #PieceOfMe tour to select cities in North America, Europe and the UK! See you guys this summer,’ she tweeted.
