Enrique Iglesias Tweets Apology Over Britney Spears Tour Snub
March 31 2011, Published 11:10 a.m. ET
Latin hunk Enrique Iglesias has finally spoken out about the controversial concert snubbing of Britney Spears following the announcement that he won't be touring with her this summer.
"Hey guys, sorry for the confusion regarding a possible tour in the summer with Britney Spears. We are on the Euphoria tour and will continue to do so including some soon-to-be-announced dates in US. So hope to see all of you soon," Iglesias tweeted on Wednesday evening.
The unlikely stage pairing was announced on Tuesday just moments before the Toxic singer hit the stage on Good Morning America in a pre-taped concert appearance, but as RadarOnline.com previously reported, Britney was quickly blindsided when Iglesias' camp made a rapid-fire denial.
"Unfortunately, Enrique Iglesias and Britney Spears will not be touring together," his rep said. "Despite initial reports based on formal discussions of the possible run, Enrique will continue on his solo tour in support of his new album EUPHORIA. Enrique has great respect for Britney and is a longtime fan of her work. He is very sorry for the confusion this might have caused to anyone."
