THREE divas of the music world will unite for a nationwide tour, it has been announced.

Lulu, Chaka Khan and Anastacia will join together for the Here Come the Girls show, which will begin in Edinburgh on 21 November. The 20-date tour will celebrate what it means to be a woman and will incorporate music and dance. The trio will perform gigs all over the country, finishing in Belfast on 21 December.

Lulu said: "I am so proud of our Here Come the Girls Tour. Putting it together has been exciting and I am thrilled that these great voices, and now my great friends, Chaka Khan and Anastacia, are sharing the experience with me."

Chaka Khan added: "The idea for this show caught my imagination the moment Lulu mentioned it to me."

Anastacia, who made headlines for her battle with breast cancer, said there would be surprises in store: "I'm super excited to be part of Here Come the Girls.

"It's going to be such a fun show with tons of surprises and fabulous music. I've long been an admirer of both Lulu and Chaka Khan so it's a dream come true to be touring with them and to be part of a show as unique and special as this."
