Mathew Morrison joins boy band tour as special guest (Reuters)

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) – "Glee" star Matthew Morrison will join this summer's Backstreet Boys/New Kids on the Block tour as a special guest.

Morrison, who plays a high school teacher on the Fox network show, will perform in arenas across the U.S. with the two boy bands. This move will postpone some of his solo shows, but will give Morrison a larger platform for exposure.

He joins the tour in Anaheim, CA on July 6 and ends his run August 7 in London, Ontario. Morrison's show in New York at the Beacon Theater will now take place August 1.

This was an opportunity I couldn't pass up," said Morrison in a statement. "I am so appreciative of my fans and I'm planning to give them a great show."

New Kids on the Block and the Backstreet Boys (NKOTBSB) surprised fans when they first took the stage together for a sold-out Radio City Music Hall show in June 2010. The two groups performed at the American Music Awards this past November.

Morrison has been nominated for Tony, Emmy and Golden Globe awards, and shared the 2009 SAG Award for best performance by an ensemble in a television series with the Glee cast.
