The 'Who You Are' singer confirms her new arena tour has been rescheduled to begin in October next year.

Jessie J has announced she has postponed her 2013 UK arena tour until October next year to give her more time to work on her new album.

The 'Domino' star had been scheduled to perform up and down the country in March 2013 on her 'Nice To Meet You' UK tour, but announced the postponement today (14th December) and said she is "truly sorry" for all of her fans.

"I would like to be the first to tell you that my #NiceToMeetYouTour has been rescheduled to later next year," Jessie tweeted this afternoon. "I am honestly truly sorry but I hope you all can understand that it's just because I would like to take more time to finish my new album."

Jessie went on to promise she will make the rescheduled 'Nice To Meet You' tour her 'biggest and best ever", and will now play 17 dates across the UK starting in Belfast on 15th October 2013.

"I promise to make the show my biggest and best ever and cannot wait for you all to hear my new songs :)," Jessie added. "All tickets for the #NiceToMeetYouTour2013 will still be valid but for the new dates please go to [JessieJOfficial.com]."
