Mariah Carey is spreading her wings and hitting the road. The diva with the angelic voice has announced dates for the “Angels Advocate” tour, her first major outing in more than three years.
The eight-week, 19-city trek is scheduled to kick off January 2 in Atlantic City and will travel across North America, closing on February 27 in Las Vegas. The songbird will perform material from her latest album Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel.
The opening act will be RydazNrtist, an R&B group signed to Carey’s husband Nick Cannon’s NCredible Entertainment. Tickets for the majority of dates go on sale December 19.
Before embarking on tour, Mimi will ring in 2010 with a New Year’s Eve show at New York City’s Madison Square Garden.
