Music legend Janet Jackson will kick off her 10-night stint at Resorts World Las Vegas on Dec. 30 and wrap up her residency on Feb. 15.
“We’re so excited to announce our new residency at Resorts World Las Vegas launching New Year’s week!” Jackson announced on Instagram.”This is going to be a lot of fun and I look forward to spending the start of the New Year with you!! We truly can’t wait! Sending so much love.”
The “Scream” hitmaker was also reportedly offered a residency in London but chose Las Vegas instead because it was more lucrative.
The star’s last residency in Vegas was “Metamorphosis” at Park MGM in 2019.
Meanwhile, Jackson recently revealed that she gets in shape for her tours by singing on a trampoline.
The singer spilled her fitness secrets as she prepares to bring her “Together Again” jaunt to the U.K. and Europe next month.
“I used to hear that Destiny’s Child would run on treadmills and try and sing at the same time?” Scott Mills asked Jackson on BBC Radio 2’s “The Zoe Ball Breakfast Show.”
“Yeah, that’s how you condition yourself,” Jackson — who has son Eissa Al Mana with ex-husband Wissam Al Mana — replied. “You run on a treadmill. Another way is a trampoline. That’s how you condition singing.”
“I have two trampolines in my house, actually, for this purpose,” the singer explained. “Well, one is for my baby, and one is for me. He took the first one I got, so I had to get another for myself.”
“Yeah, it’s a lot of energy,” she continued. “And it’s just back-to-back to back-to-back to back-to-back, the whole show — and it’s two hours.”
As well as the high energy, the ‘Promise’ hitmaker has many costume changes and has three people assisting her backstage.
“Well, I have three people helping me, actually,” she continued. “Someone at my feet that’s changing my shoes, and someone that’s changing and I also help myself.”
And even then, it’s a race against time.
“Sometimes I have not cleared the audience from seeing me; you run as quickly as you can to your quick change,” Jackson added.” And there were times when I had to undress a little bit before I got to my quick change, or I would not have made the change in time. So you start to unzip … I mean, you don’t take anything off, but you start to unzip things to make it go a little quicker.”
