Enrique Iglesias won't be joining Britney Spears on her tour of Canada and America, despite her announcement that he would on US TV.

Spears told ABC's Good Morning America programme that the pair would be hitting the road together.

But a statement from Enrique Iglesias denied the news hours later saying the singer was "very sorry for the confusion it might have caused".

Britney Spears starts her US tour on 17 June in Sacramento, California.

She released her seventh album, Femme Fatale, last week.

Enrique Iglesias is currently on tour in Europe and is due to play concerts in Nottingham, Cardiff and Glasgow in June.

The statement from Enrique Iglesias added that the singer, who had a number one single in the UK with Hero in 2001, respected Spears and was a fan of her work.
