98 Degrees Announces Tour Dates
02/16/2001 7:00 AM, Yahoo! Music Brett Atwood
(2/16/01, 7 a.m. ET) -- 98 Degrees has announced a string of tour dates in support of its latest album Revelation. The tour kicks off at Rupp Arena in Lexington, Kentucky, on March 22, with show openers the Baha Men, Dream, and Debelah Morgan joining the group on the outing.
LAUNCH recently spoke with 98 Degrees singer Nick Lachey about the group's current hit single, "My Everything," and he said, "This one kind of wrote itself. You know, for me it was inspired by my relationship with Jessica [Simpson], but we wanted it to be a song that necessarily wasn't a romantic one--it could be a spiritual relationship. We wanted it to be very general so that it could apply to anyone or anything, and I think that's kind of the direction that we went with."
98 Degrees performs on NBC's The Tonight Show With Jay Leno tonight (February 16) and on ABC's The Rosie O'Donnell Show on February 26. The quartet is currently nominated for a Grammy Award for best pop collaboration with vocals for "Thank God I Found You," which also features Mariah Carey and Joe.
