by Additional dates has been added to pop icon Janet Jacksonâs “Number Ones: Up Close and Personal Tour” after the trek sold out in record time. The 35 city tour Janet is the fastest selling single artist performance ticket this year with dates sold out in New York, Los Angeles, Toronto, Chicago, Washington D.C. and Atlantic City as well as single nights in Atlanta and Santa Barbara. Jackson’s official website www.janetjackson.com sold over 96% of the presale tickets for the North America Tour on the first day of presales.
The “Number Ones: Up Close and Personal Tour” is the first time Janet has hit the road since her record breaking appearance at The Essence Music Festival. The trek will kick off February 4th in Manila, Philippines. This tour will focus on venues that will allow Janet to be up close and personal in a much more intimate setting. In each selected city JANET will offer something different to her performance so no show will be the same.
In related news, Janet is also nominated for a Best Actress NAACP Image Award for her performance in “Why Did I Get Married Too.” Plus her upcoming book, “True You” will be in stores on February 15th.
