The Dressed to Kill Tour was the sixth solo concert tour by American singer-actress Cher. Launched in support of her twenty-fifth studio album, ''Closer to the Truth'', it started in Phoenix, Arizona on March 22, 2014 and continued across North America before coming to a close in San Diego on July 11, 2014. The tour has received mostly positive reception from critics, who praised Cher's vocal performance as well as the several costumes and show elements. Pat Benatar and Neil Giraldo were listed as "special guests" for the first 13 dates from March 22, 2014 to April 12, 2014 and Cyndi Lauper for the further 36 shows from April 23, 2014 through July 11, 2014. On November 21, 2014, after numerous delays in the planned launch of the second leg of the tour, Cher announced that she had prematurely aborted the tour due to health problems. She has since discussed options to resume the tour sometime in 2015.〔 == Background and development == On September 23, 2013, Cher visited ''The Today Show'' aired on NBC where she performed "Woman's World", "I Hope You Find It" and "Believe". While on the show, Cher announced that she would tour with her twenty-fifth album, ''Closer to the Truth''. When speaking about the tour, Cher stated:
After the appearance, it was announced through Cher's website that American Express cardmembers would have the first chance to purchase the tickets during the tour pre-sale from September 30, 2013 to October 3, 2013. Tickets that are purchased online will include a physical copy of ''Closer to the Truth''. On May 14, 2014, Cher revealed on ''The Today Show'' that the tour would be extended with 27 additional dates across North America, beginning on September 11, 2014. For that second leg, fashion designer and long-time collaborator Bob Mackie had provided a string of new costumes for Cher. He was unable to make a commitment in the first place, and was thus replaced by Hugh Durrant for the first leg.〔 After several postponements starting shortly before the originally planned launch in September, the second leg of the tour ultimately got cancelled on November 21, 2014; due to Cher recovering from an acute viral infection which affected her kidney function.〔http://music-mix.ew.com/2014/11/21/cher-cancels-dressed-to-kill-tour-dates/ 〕 In an official statement, she indicated to be "devastated," adding she "sincerely hope() that we can come back again next year and finish what we started."〔http://www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-30142178 〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dressed to Kill Tour (Cher)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
