ST. LOUIS (AP) -- Audiences who enjoy the television shows "America's Got Talent" and "Britain's Got Talent" will be able to see two winners on tour together.

Neal E. Boyd, who won the American competition last year, will be the special guest of Britain's winner Paul Potts on a 10-city tour that begins July 6 in Dallas.

Boyd, who lives outside of St. Louis, will release a classical pop album "My American Dream" on June 23. The next night, he'll perform in his Southeast Missouri hometown of Sikeston as the guest performer at a Kenny Rogers concert.

Potts topped the charts in several countries with his debut CD, after winning "Britain's Got Talent" in 2007. His second recording, "Passione" was released in May.
