Idina Menzel Extends Tour to Include West End

Call it premature Olympic fever, but it seems the U.K. is the new "it" place to perform. Coming fast on the heels of Nicki Minaj's recent extension of her own pond-side tour, Idina Menzel has announced she's joining the Brit lovefest, scheduling a series of U.K. dates for the fall.

Best known for her Tony-winning role as Maureen in Broadway's Rent (both play and film version), as well as for playing Rachel Berry's mom on FOX's Broadway-gaga "Glee," Menzel will be staging shows in London's West End before traveling to Edinburgh and Manchester. The October dates fall in the middle of Mrs. Taye Diggs' North American tour, which began earlier this summer and will resume once the singer returns Stateside October 29th.

According to Menzel's website, expect even more tour announcements in the days ahead. We'll have updates then, but in the meantime, here's a look at Idina's 2012 tour so far:
