Britney Spears Announces Vegas Residency at Planet Hollywood

Britney Spears has been hinting all week on Twitter that she would reveal some big news to fans on Good Morning America today. Spears will be holding a residency in Las Vegas at Planet Hollywood.

Her residency begins Dec. 27, and she will perform 50 shows a year for "Britney: Piece of Me." MTV News reported that the high-energy club-meets-theater vibe would be central to the Spears' show.

"We wanted the environment to be that way so people could come and stand up and feel like they're in the show with me," she told GMA. The shows will be held at the PH Live Theater at the Planet Hollywood complex.

She has reportedly been training up to five hours a day to prepare for the gigs. "I'm definitely ready," she said.

According to TMZ, Spears will earn a whopping $310,000 per show (almost $15 million a year) during her 2-year contract. The projected sales per show are $508,514, the article states, and Spears will take home more than 60 percent.

Spears also confirmed that her yet-untitled album has been scheduled for a Dec. 3 release and that a new song "Perfume" would be featured as well as the first single, "Work Bitch," which dropped Sunday night after an early leak. The EDM-inspired track was originally slated to hit the radio yesterday around 6 p.m. Fans are expecting a music video to be unveiled soon.
