How best to get over your ex-boyfriend? Announce a 56-date tour! That should put some distance between yourself and the temptation of calling them back for any reuniting trysts. That’s what Selena Gomez has done (although to be honest we expect she’s done it far more for career and commercial reasons than anything to do with Justin Bieber,) with a whopping workload treading the boards set out for the summer.

"I couldn't be more excited to tour again but this time around the world," she said in a media release, reported by USA Today. "This has been such an interesting few months. My music has grown, and I want my fans to see a new side of me. Can't wait to see y'all on the road!"

So, Selena kicks off on August 14, 2013 with a show at in Vancouver, calling through Canada for much of the rest of that month. She then jumps over to Europe on August 30th, beginning with a show in Copenhagen, Denmark. It’s not until September 25th that she’s done across there (and hopefully with a lot less bad feeling than her ex Bieber,) from which she’ll then head back to the biggest chunk of the tour – a six week tour around the USA. Cripes. She finishes up in St. Louis on November 27th.
