Watch How Mega-Artists Warm Up Before Their Performances: The Hilarious, The Weird + Everything Else
The only thing more interesting than what happens on stage is what happens off of it.
For the most part, we the fans are not privy to what goes down behind the scenes. Some artists share BTS videos, but many of them are edited into oblivion, anyway. That's why candid off-stage videos of artists are so, so precious.
The following videos show artists in rehearsal or backstage mode, and span everything from the amazing vocals of Lady Gaga and Beyonce to Kanye West and Justin Bieber dancing.
Check them out below.

We wouldn't want her to, anyway.

Stunning.
