This morning while watching The View, I was very surprised to learn that En Vogue would be performing on the show to publicly announce the launch of a new tour that will reunite the Funky Divas together again 20 years after they broke out onto the scene. It turns out that the ladies performed a show at B.B. King’s in NYC last night as precursor to their appearance on The View today. Here are a few pics from last night’s performance and some deets about the gig:

Last night, R & B foursome En Vogue celebrated the 20th anniversary of their formation with a show at B.B. King’s in New York. [En Vogue performed among other songs] the monster ballad “Don’t Let Go,” which was the group’s final single to feature prodigal daughter Dawn Robinson (she returned to the fold last year), last night; somehow, it manages to be a pure display of pipes and a mass singalong at the same time. Nice trick, that.

According to the group’s official My Space profile (they don’t seem to have an official website just yet), the ladies plan to release a new album to coincide with the tour they’re launching this year. I, for one, am excited beyond belief. En Vogue performed a medley of their big hits on The View this morning but I have been unable to find video of the performance to share. But, after the jump, you can watch the ladies perform Don’t Let Go at B.B. King’s nightclub last night …

The ladies look and sound amazing. I’m happy to see that they’ve put their differences behind them and have reunited once again … they way they ought to be. I hope I’ll get to see En Vogue on their upcoming tour. I’m a fan from way back. It’s great having them back among us.
