Usher is preparing a tour for ladies only.
The R&B
singer revealed in a recent interview with The
Associated Press that he will soon
announce
details of his "One Night Stand" tour.
He said
specific dates are still being worked out for about
15 "intimate" venues.
Asked
why he wanted to perform a "ladies only" tour, Usher
said he relishes the challenge.
"There's
only a few artists that can pull that off," said the
29-year-old singer.
"I feel
like I've had such a connection with my audience.
This
album, I felt like, was definitely the type of one
that was more intimate.
So what
better way to get up close and personal than to make
it all women?"
Usher's
latest album, "Here I Stand," finds him still
singing about the life of a lothario,
but this
time he's a more mature, committed lothario.
He
sings: "This aint' sex/ This is a symbol of the true
makings of love."
Last
year, Usher married Tameka Foster and the couple had
a son, Usher Raymond V.
Though
now a family man, Usher hasn't relinquished his sex
symbol status.
"The
ladies like to see that masculine build," he said.
"They question if I still got it."
To go
with the theme, Usher is also planning his own line
of lingerie and men's undergarments.
He
already has a fragrance and cologne.
