Britney ‘Definitely’ Heading Out On Tour For ‘Circus’

LOS ANGELES, Calif. --

Britney Spears is heading back out on tour.

In a promotional appearance on New York’s Z100 radio station earlier this week, the singer confirmed she will take her upcoming sixth artist album “Circus,” on the road.

“Definitely,” she said when asked about hitting the road. “Probably around the world.”

As previously reported on AccessHollywood.com, Britney released the first single off the album, “Womanizer,” to radio last Friday.

“I like the fact that it’s so empowering for girls because it’s basically saying, ‘Ya know, we know what you’re up to,’” Britney told Z100 about the song. “It’s about guys cheating on other girls and stuff like that. And it’s kinda like a girl anthem, so that’s why I like it.”

Britney will reportedly start her tour in 2009.

In the past, Britney has helped give a leg up to several acts including Jada Pinkett Smith’s Wicked Wisdom and “Milkshake” singer Kelis, by having them open for her on tour.
