Kelis opening for Kravitz / Co-headlining with Saadiq in Summer Tour



After Britney Tour, Kelis Looking To Team Up With Lenny Kravitz
http://www.mtv.com/news/a...elis.jhtml

After checking out of Britney Spears' Onyx Hotel Tour (THANK GOD), it looks like Kelis might pair up right away with another headliner, though one of a very different sort.
Kelis' camp is in talks to have her open for rocker Lenny Kravitz on a summer tour. The trek would be built around the release of Kravitz's new, as-yet-untitled studio album due out around the same time.
"I don't know how this happened, to be honest with you," Kelis admitted with a laugh. "I just show up. But we've met. [Lenny's] cool."

Sources close to Kelis confirm the sides are talking but that nothing is close to being finalized yet.
Kelis knows that being on the road with such headliners as Spears (see "Kelis Checks Into Britney's Onyx Hotel Tour") or Kravitz will limit her creative freedom onstage, but she acknowledges the trade-off in reaching a broader audience. "It's a huge tour," she said of the Spears trek. "I'm sort of there for fun and to hang out. I love what I do so it'll be fun."

Before she leaves home with Britney or Lenny, she'll do a quick co-headlining tour with Raphael Saadiq, who produced three songs for her most recent album, Tasty. Those dates will be announced shortly.

This ensures that there will be at least one talented person on stage at a Britney Spears concert. Maybe people will get their money's worth.

heehee...with britney's stolen janet moves, she can at least dance. lol

to be honest, though, i would like to see britney's show but i wasn't gonna shell out the money for it. with kelis on the bill, i am much more likely to attend.
