How to mic this particular talent?

I'm not REALLY looking for advice.....I've got it covered.  I just wanted to gloat!
 

 
She's been here before....but she's coming back the 29th to do a tune and some sort of voice over.
 
Sometimes it doesn't totally suck to be me.

     Well, if you take away that beautiful face, that stunning body, and her singing talent, what are you left with?

    I think your biggest problem will be latency, it will probably take you 2-5 seconds to respond everytime she says something. Focus!!!

    I don't think latency will be an issue, but you are probably pretty close with that 2 - 5 second estimate.
