Ciara opened up for Britney during her stop in London, but it's a new gig for DeBarge.

"Joining Britney Spears for her 'Circus' tour will be an amazing and surreal experience for me. I have been dreaming of an opportunity like this forever, and can't wait," DeBarge said in a statement to Access Hollywood.
