The Barbados-born R'n'B diva played the RDS as recently as last month, but 'phenomenal public demand' is bringing her back to our shores in 2008.

The RDS Simmonscourt Pavilion will once again echo to the strains of 'Umbrella' on February 26, while Belfast gets it turn on March 2.

Tickets for Dublin are priced €40, while those for Belfast will cost £30. Both will go on sale next Friday, January 11.
