"(In 1999) After the success of Whitney Houston's first studio album in eight years, the singer embarked on her first world tour since1994 to promote it. For the North American Leg, Houston turned down most of the arena dates in favor of theaters because she wanted "to do something where people can feel [her] and [she] can feel them." This allowed the shows to have a jam-session kind of feel. Since theaters have lower capacities than arenas, Houston played in most North American cities for two nights each.
Houston signed a deal with Dolce & Gabbana. They would design all of Houston's clothes for the tour. This gave Houston a more hip and contemporary look in to match her music in contrast to her previous tours. Houston first showcased her new edgy wardrobe on the Oprah Winfrey show prior to the tour opener in Chicago."
