Janet Jackson Announces “Unbreakable World Tour”

The first leg of the 36-date “Unbreakable World Tour” kicks off Aug. 31 in Vancouver and travels to Los Angeles, Chicago, Miami, Atlanta, San Diego, San Francisco, and more. Additional worldwide concerts will be announced at a later date.

The tour comes in support of Janet’s first album in seven years, due this fall on Rhythm Nation Records/BMG. She has been teasing the project using the hashtag #ConversationsInACafe. A single, rumored to be titled “No Sleep,” is supposed to drop by the end of June.
