The World Domination Tour[1][2] (also known as the Doll Domination Tour) is the second concert tour by American girl group Pussycat Dolls to support their second studio album Doll Domination. The tour is scheduled to reach Europe, Asia, South America, and Oceania. The group toured North America as the opening act for Britney Spears' 2009 tour.

Background

On July 31, 2008, while promoting the album in Asia, the group announced that a tour in support of the album would begin in early 2009, visiting the Europe, Asia, Australia and South America. Dates were announced following the album's release.

It has since been confirmed on E! News at the opening of the new Pussycat Doll Lounge by Robin Antin, the group's founder, that the tour will begin in Europe in late January 2009, and then visit Asia and Australia in April 2009, before finishing up in the U.S. at the end of the Summer. This has slightly changed since her comments. Robin also confirmed that it will be a co-headlined tour with another major act, similar to the groups 2005 tour with the Black Eyed Peas, 2006 tour with Rihanna and 2007 they opened the Back to Basics Tour with Christina Aguilera. This will be Britney Spears on her 2009 American leg of her The Circus Starring: Britney Spears tour.


On August 28, 2008 Ne-Yo confirmed on UK radio station 95.8 Capital FM that he would be touring with the group throughout 2009 in support of his latest album Year of the Gentleman. He said that the tour was going to be called "Dolls & Gentlemen: An Evening with Ne-Yo and the Pussycat Dolls", but that this wasn't confirmed and in the end proved untrue. He also went on to explain that the show would feature sets from both acts, but that they 'would share the stage at some points too'. Tickets went on sale after both acts release their albums. He stated the tour would kick off in January and that it would visit London, Paris, Amsterdam and other European cities. The tour began on the 18 January 2009 in Aberdeen, Scotland.
