R&B star Mary J Blige will tour New Zealand next month, it was announced today. Blige will play two concerts, at Auckland's Vector Arena on June 16, and Wellington Town Hall on June 17. Billed as "the supremely stylish and exceedingly beautiful," and described by some as the natural successor to "Queen of Soul" Aretha Franklin, Blige has an impressive list of gongs to her name -- including 23 Grammy nominations and eight Grammy wins. She can also boast seven multi-platinum records. The New Zealand fixtures will follow a four-concert tour of Australia -- Blige's first visit to Australasia
