fat up front layers pro pop studio vocal - HOW

So these pop songs like FIGHT SONG by ..someone.. and even the chorus to "too late to apologize" are just phenomenal.  These folks have decent voices but the technique for the mix is what makes it for me.  So how do I get that PHAT chorus vocal like taylor swift WILDEST DREAMS  , normally its during the chorus "wildest dreams up high".  Doubling I know, any other known tips.  My doubling mixing never sounds like that. If I could make my clients sounds that way....Id be in business. ;)
 
so who is mixing and mastering for Taylor and Miss Cyrus now?  I want to know the secrets. ;) I won't tell anyone.

a booth, helps eliminate room sound.
 
a great mic...... is key.
 
good preamps, clean gain structure, and then choice compressors.
 

I hope all this info helps. It has for me.
 
Parallel Compression is your friend. Learn all you can about it. Especially for drums and vocals. It's key to getting that upfront sound.
