After backing out of last year's festival, Beyoncé is preparing to redeem herself next week when she hits the Coachella stage and she's reportedly beefed up her spectacle, as per TMZ.

On Friday (April 6), the outlet reported that the pop titan has upped the number of backup dancers for her headlining set from about a dozen to 100. Sources close to the set also revealed that Bey has moved her rehearsals to a much larger studio to accommodate the new hires. Working with the pop titan also required them to sign NDAs, of course, so that we don't have another Tiffany Haddish situation. TMZ reported that Beyoncé is also reportedly feeling the pressure to provide "some shock and awe," so the set is expected to feature plenty of lights, visuals and more. 

Earlier this week, TMZ also reported that the superstar was preparing for the big show with 11-hour rehearsals. "Beyonce's on a mission to make up for lost time -- ramping up her Coachella rehearsals to ensure her performance is one for the ages after missing out last year," the outlet claims. "Sources close to Queen B tell us ... she started getting serious about practicing for her show Tuesday, scheduling 11-hour days in a high-profile L.A. studio that's been booked solely for her and her dancers, choreographers, technicians and other members of her crew."

Stay tuned for even more updates on the pop titan's highly-anticipated Coachella performance!
