“I’m almost having to hold back the floodgates, because she wants to start rehearsing right now,” says Halpin, who’s also on-site selecting dancers with his team at Silent House Productions, which has designed tours by such pop acts as Katy Perry, P!nk and Taylor Swift. “I’ve never seen an artist so pumped and excited. She’s been doing religious vocal and choreography for months and months. So I’m waiting for this unleashed furry of rehearsal energy when we get started.”
Have we ever discussed how Rihanna's music is so superior compared to her peers? And she does that while releasing yearly. Imagine if she takes time to record her music. Thriller 2.0
Billboard: First off, let’s clear the air about whether Britney Spears will be lip-syncing during her Las Vegas residency shows. Can you set the record straight on this subject? Larry Rudolph: She’s going to be singing live. She does choreography and vocal coaching every day. The vocal coaching is really just to strengthen her voice and get her to a point where she can go out there every night and do a full show.
It’s hard for the public to fully understand what goes on when you get on stage and you’re dancing full out during a song. No matter what anyone says, there’s not a single artist who goes out there and does full choreography and is singing without a vocal track underneath them at the same time. It’s physically impossible. We’re just trying to build up her stamina and get her to a point where she can do as much as humanly possible. The idea is to try to get her pretty close to 100%. There might be some numbers where she’s full out dancing with a (vocal) track underneath her, but there won’t be any lip-syncing across the board on anything.
