Joe Jonas lands dream tour with Britney Spears

Pop star Joe Jonas' dreams have come true after landing the coveted support slot on Britney Spears' upcoming European tour.

The Jonas Brothers star missed out on the chance to perform on the Femme Fatale trek with his childhood crush in North America after Spears opted for an all-girl show and chose rapper Nicki Minaj as her support act.

But he has been given a second chance to hit the road with Spears - the Toxic hitmaker has invited the newly-solo singer to open for her when she takes the trek to Europe in October (11).

And the 21 year old can't believe his luck.

He tells People.com, "It's a dream come true. She was the first girl I ever had a poster on my wall of, and her album was the first CD I ever bought. It's so funny to think I had that on my wall and here I am about to perform with her. I'm really looking forward to being part of this."

Joe Jonas will get a taste of what's to come on Friday (05Aug11) when he supports Spears for a one-off gig in New Jersey.

He'll join Britney Spears for nine dates in Europe, beginning in October (11).
