Delta Goodrem reveals the gruelling reality of touring America

Delta Goodrem is feeling star-struck as she joins ’90 teen idols the Backstreet Boys on the North American leg of their DNA World Tour.

The Aussie singer, 37, told Us Weekly on Monday it was an ‘honour’ to be the supporting act for the I Want It That Way hitmakers.

But the Innocent Eyes star said coming from Australia, which is in the middle of winter, to a scorching American summer had been a shock to the system.

‘When you’re packing in winter in Australia and you come over to America, you think, “Oh, it won’t be as hot” – I’ve slowly been melting,’ she joked.

She said the tour schedule – about five shows a week from April until September – was demanding but she had developed coping strategies.

‘I’m working hard at making sure that we all stay really happy and stay true to the course,’ she said.

Delta has performed many of her hits during her opening set for the Backstreet Boys, including Lost Without You and Wings, as well as some more recent singles, like Billionaire

The former Neighbours star said was thrilled to have the opportunity to support the Backstreet Boys, of whom she is a big fan.

‘I’m a Backstreet Boys girl, too! The guys have been incredible, and they’re just so phenomenal on stage,’ she gushed.
