The No.1 Official Nelly Furtado Fans Forum

Hello to all the fans!!!!!! Thank you for all your wonderful posts. The excitement and enthusiasm for “Loose” has been overwhelming. The album drops 20th June in North America, (one day before summer begins!), and 12th June outside of North America. I couldn’t be more excited and happy.

The band and I have been rehearsing, and we will be touring North America in July. We also will be playing a slew of festival dates in Europe in June…Watch out for live tv performances up until the release date. I just shot two videos. One for “Promiscuous” and one for “Maneater”. Hope you love it all. Can’t wait to see everybody on tour!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love, Nelly

She also announced that the single will be released 5th June 2006 in the UK. Woohoo!! So that confirms that “Maneater” will be the single in the UK, which contradicts previous announcements.

Thanks to Notso_Hampson for spotting this.
