Enrique has (sort of) pulled out of the Britney tour

  • March 30, 2011
  • Brad O'Mance

Yesterday Britney Spears announced a joint tour around North America with Enrique Iglesias.

Hours later Enrique pulled out of the tour without any explanation.

Now it seems it may still happen.

Billboard reports that talks are ongoing and that it may go ahead as planned, with dates to start in June. It also hints at a number of factors as to why Enrique pulled out in the first place. Apparently, there were problems with people's per­cep­tion of the tour — that Enrique himself is a headline act and this was announced as a Britney tour with Enrique supporting.

There are also some boring bits about pay and whether Enrique would get a share of the "back end" profits, or box office receipts.

In other Britney news, her much pub­li­cised interview with Ellen Degeneres has been postponed due to schedul­ing conflicts, while MTV have unveiled the trailer for their forth­com­ing doc­u­ment­ary, Britney Spears: I Am The Femme Fatale.
