Singing to herself! Taylor Swift rehearses alone to empty stadium as she gears up for six-month RED tour

By Daily Mail Reporter

She's used to being surrounded by fans wherever she goes and performing to jam-packed stadiums.

But Taylor Swift had to rehearse for her RED tour all by herself on Saturday, singing her chart-topping hits in front of an empty auditorium in Nebraska.

The blonde star looked a far cry from her usual on-stage persona, dressed all in black and dancing without her backing dancers.

She might have had a hectic few months, but things are going to get even busier for Taylor as she kicks off her tour on Wednesday.

 

The 23-year-old is gearing up for two sold out shows in Nebraska before traveling around North America to play 66 shows in 47 cities.

And far from flagging after her crazy start to 2013, the ubiquitous singer seemed full of energy as she leapt around the stage, practicing her dance moves.

Showing off her super-svelte figure in skintight black jeans and a matching camisole vest-top, the star threw her hands up in the sky as she put her all into the rehearsal.

She wore her trademark blonde hair scraped back into a messy ponytail as she bounded around all alone on stage ahead of Wednesday night.

And even though her tour starts on the 13th, which is an unlucky date for some, it seems Taylor chose that date specifically:

'The 22 video premieres AND the Red Tour starts on Wednesday! Yes, that's the 13th. Yes, that's on purpose,' she wrote on Twitter.

After impressive live performances at the Grammys and at the BRITs at the beginning of the year, the Trouble single has a lot to live up to, and will have to maintain it until September.

But it seems that all the hard work is paying off as Taylor made an eye-watering $57million last year due to strong record sales, touring and endorsements.

She made more than Oscar-winner Anne Hathaway and Brad Pitt combined, according to Parade magazine's annual What People Earn issue.

Even though she's raking in the money, it's been revealed that the magazines that Taylor appeared on the cover of last year were all outsold by other issues.

No, I think she's at a meeting of her fan club. Or a meeting of the men she hasn't dated looking for a new one.

All of her so-called music sounds like the same song reworked over and over.
