Jan. 3, 2014 -- intro: Britney Spears kicked off her two-year residency at Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino in Las Vegas, drawing raves from those who were lucky enough to score tickets. According to Spears, 32, the praise is well-earned, as she worked hard with choreographers to learn difficult dance moves. "They're new, up-and-coming fresh guys, so their stuff is really hard," she explained. "It's more rewarding after you perform something that's really hard to do than just something that you just kinda throw together."

Here's a few notable moments you might have missed if you weren't in the crowd.
