The release of Britney Spears for her new album had a rough start on Tuesday (29), when the Spanish singer Enrique Iglesias denied he would tour with the pop star.
Earlier in the day, Spears said the two would cross North America in June, but his announcement was greeted with skepticism almost immediately.
Iglesias has shows scheduled in Europe until six days before the start of Britney's tour in Sacramento, which would not give him much time to prepare for a new journey in North America. It was unclear who opened the show who and what the similarity of the two musical artists to perform this tour.
The spokesman Enrique released a statement confirming that the tour will not actually happen.
"Unfortunately, Enrique Iglesias and Britney Spears will not come on tour together. Despite initial reports based on formal discussions about the possibility of touring, Enrique will continue on his solo tour to promote her new album Euphoria. Enrique has a lot of respect for Britney and is a fan of his work. He is very sorry for any confusion this may have caused", the statement said.
His spokesman declined to comment further and the Spears team has yet to speak on the subject. A representative of the producer responsible for the tour, Live Nation, said any question about the incident should be referred directly to the representatives of Iglesias.
The unexpected change in plans has not been understood by the fans and the press since it was announced that Spears personally touring with Iglesias during his appearance on TV show Good Morning America. Currently, a divergence of information like this is rare in campaigns for CDs, movies, TV shows and other entertainment products, since they are highly structured and planned in advance. The press did not discard the possibility that Enrique had canceled last minute her participation on the tour since most of the audience understood that he only opened the show to Britney, and there would be a major attraction of the same size.
Fans await a statement from Spears's camp, since the tour was originally formalized by herself.
