Now that the sexy and newly divorced Nick Lachey isn’t spending any more nights solo, thanks to MTV veejay vixen Vanessa Minnillo, he’s ready to get back to work.

Jive Records announced Monday Lachey’s first-ever solo concert tour for “What’s Left of Me,” which debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard Album Chart.

The 26-city tour is slated to kick off this September when “fans around the country will be able to see him perform live for the first time. These shows will be performed in a series of smaller theatres, allowing intimate concerts with fans," Jive said in a statement.

The 26 cities on the tour include Washington, D.C., Chicago, Atlanta, Nashville, Orlando, St. Louis, Minneapolis, Toronto, Philadelphia and New York. The tour kicks off on Sept. 20, in Albany, N.Y.

With his divorce from Jessica Simpson now official for a second week, Lachey spent the early morning hours of July 4 at Manhattan's Butter kissing, cuddling and getting lap dances from Minnillo.

They also spent an afternoon at sports bar Third and Long, where they competed in a friendly game of foosball and checked out the France vs. Portugal World Cup game.
