London, 4th April 2011 - Fresh from selling out her entire US tour in just a few short minutes & conquering Australia earlier this year leaving a shiny trail of glitter & sweat behind in her wake, global pop sensation KE$HA has announced she will bring her ‘Get Sleazy’ World Tour to the UK/Europe this Summer for a series of explosive headline & festival shows throughout June/July.

In the UK, KE$HA will play a series of headline concerts in London, Birmingham & Manchester alongside two appearances at the legendary Glastonbury festival & her first ever performance in Scotland on the Main Stage at T-in The Park.
