Bedingfield postpones UK tour

British pop star Natasha Bedingfield has rescheduled her UK tour due to "promotional commitments" in the US.

The Unwritten singer was slated to begin her 22-date tour of the British Isles on September 2 in Belfast but has been forced to postpone the gigs until a later date.

A statement on her website reads: "Unfortunately, Natasha's forthcoming UK tour has had to be rescheduled - this is due to promotional commitments in the US beyond her control.

"The good news is however that she will tour the UK but not until next year."
