Chris Brown, Bow Wow double up on tour dates

The holiday tour pairing R&B singer Chris Brown with rapper Bow Wow has expanded into February.

Since last check, more than a dozen dates have been added, primarily along the East Coast. A third show was tacked on to the tour's New Year's Eve celebration in Universal City, CA, and a second performance was added at New York City's Madison Square Garden. The outing is now scheduled to wrap Feb. 2 in Honolulu, HI. An updated itinerary is listed below.

The Ford Presents Up Close & Personal Holiday Exclusive Tour, which launched Dec. 6, also features special guests Soulja Boy, Shop Boys, Lil Mama and Sean Kingston.

Brown, who has entered into a partnership with Ford to promote its SYNC in-car entertainment system, is supporting his sophomore album, "Exclusive," which surfaced last month and reached No. 4 on The Billboard 200. The set has spawned the No. 1 song "Kiss Kiss," featuring T-Pain, and new single "With You," which is currently climbing R&B and pop charts.

The Grammy-nominated 18-year-old has also been getting face time on the big screen, appearing in the feature film "This Christmas."

Bow Wow, who also counts acting among his talents, has been pumping up the promotion behind "Face Off," his new collaborative album with best friend Omarion. The set, released Dec. 11, has spawned R&B/hip-hop hit "Girlfriend."

Bow Wow also continues to support his fifth studio album, last year's "Price of Fame," which includes hit singles "Shortie Like Mine," "Outta My System" and "I'm a Flirt" with R. Kelly.

Meanwhile, the 20-year-old rap star is launching his own media company, LBW Entertainment, to help emerging artists, according to a press release.
