She’s back! Mary J. Blige is getting ready to hit the stage again and she’s making her way right here to the A.

Mary J. Blige is getting back to business as she announced her Good Morning Gorgeous tour. She’ll be taking supporting acts Queen Naija and Ella Mai on the road with her during this 23-city tour beginning in September.

This is actually the first time in five years that Blige will be headlining a tour. Her last solo tour was in 2017 with the Strength of a Woman tour. She also co-headlined The Royalty tour with Nas in 2019.

Being on the same stage with Blige isn’t something foreign for Queen Naija or Ella Mai. This past May, Naija was one of the opening acts for Blige’s Strength of a Woman Festival and Summit. Mai also shared the stage with Blige during her Mary & Friends set as one of her special guests. Blige and Mai also collaborated on two separate tracks on Mai’s sophomore album ‘Sink or Swim’ and ‘Not Another Love Song.’

The Good Morning Gorgeous tour is set to start on Sept. 17 with a show at the Greensboro Coliseum in Greensboro, North Carolina. Blige, Naija and Mai will make stops in Atlanta, Oakland, Las Vegas, New Orleans and more before they head to Atlantic City to wrap up the tour on Oct. 29.

Blige has a lot to celebrate with this tour; she is celebrating the anniversaries of her debut album “What’s The 411″ and her third album “Share My World.” She was also given the Icon Award at the 2022 Billboard Music Awards, nominated for three BET Awards and named one of Time’s 100 Most Influential People of 2022.

If you’re an American Express cardholder, you can grab your presale tickets until tonight at 10 p.m. General sale tickets for the Good Morning Gorgeous tour go on sale tomorrow (Friday June 17) at 10 a.m. You can grab those at livenation.com.
