Justin Timberlake and Jay-Z are planning a major stadium tour this summer, sources involved in the negotiations tell Rolling Stone. While talks are still ongoing, the tour as currently planned would include 11 to 13 stadium dates.
Timberlake hinted Saturday on Twitter that something was in the works, writing, "Big news coming after Justin's Grammys performance." According to the New York Post,
Timberlake said, somewhat vaguely, on the red carpet before the
Grammys,
"We're definitely going to go on tour . . . I don't know how
much I should say. . . . It's going to be a lot of fun, I know that."
The two stars have appeared on stage together a few times recently for performances of Timberlake's Hov-assisted comeback single "Suit & Tie." Jay joined Timberlake during a show in New Orleans over Super Bowl weekend, the pop-star's first live show in nearly five years; and the duo also joined forces for a rendition of the cut at this weekend's Grammy Awards.
Timberlake's highly anticipated new album The 20/20 Experience is set for a March 19th release.
Be sure to check out ROLLIN STONES interview with the pop star,
where he talks about his return to music and how he and long-time
producer Timbaland put together the new LP:
"We encapsulated ourselves
in the studio and I didn't tell anybody," Timberlake said. "I was just
like, 'Let's make some music without all the hoopla of, like
expectations. Let's just make something that feels genuine from us.' And
I'm glad we were able to do that way because, for me, it's the best
stuff I've ever done."
