[hollywoodreporter] Rihanna ‘s 777 tour — in which she’ll be jetting to select cities with some invited fans and press aboard a chartered plane — now has its seven destinations set. But the venues that the pop star will be playing at won’t be announced until she arrives in each city, according to a press release.
The tour will begin Nov. 14 in Mexico City, stop in London on Nov. 19 (the release date for the singer’s latest album,Unapologetic), and conclude in New York a day later.
“We are turning this jumbo jet into our tour bus,” Rihanna stated in the release. “We’re practically living on this thing for a week: sleeping, partying, all together. Me, my fans, the press…it’s going to be a wild ride. I wanted it to be a rock n’ roll adventure, and I think when it’s over it will be the coolest thing I’ve ever done.”
