For fans of Usher, there's only one month to go before the summer really heats up. The singer has finalized the itinerary for the Truth Tour, which will bring the songs of his multiplatinum Confessions on the road.
Preliminary dates announced last month (see [article id="1488215"]"Usher, Kanye To Bring 'The Truth' Nationwide"[/article]) have been revamped to include additional cities. The tour still kicks off August 5 in Hampton, Virginia, and wraps up two months later on October 7 in Hartford, Connecticut. Kanye West is Usher's opening act.
Usher is currently on the European leg of the Truth Tour. At the BET Awards in Los Angeles earlier this week, Usher picked up awards for Best Male R&B Artist and Viewer's Choice for his song "Yeah!" (see [article id="1488786"]"Usher, Outkast, Jay-Z, Beyonce Clean Up At BET Awards"[/article]).
