Talking about the upcoming American tour, Natasha Bedingfield said: "Nothing is more exciting than taking it to the stage and performing my songs live. Having toured around the world, I couldn't be more thrilled to finally be embarking on my first tour of the U.S. with Verizon, who is always at the forefront of mobile technology and great new music. It's going to be a wicked summer run."
