Shania Twain laughs at stage mistake: ‘Glad someone captured this’
Shania Twain know that the best thing about being a woman is the privilege of having a little fun – and sometimes that means laughing off accidental blunders on stage.
The country star, 58, took to social media on Sunday, June 2, to make fun of herself after experiencing an accident during her recent concert in Las Vegas. While performing her hit “(If You’re Not In It For Love) I’m Outta Here!” Twain accidentally started singing into a sparkly pink drumstick rest instead of into the microphone. “Oh my god, that was hilarious!” she shouted before continuing the song.
When a concertgoer captured the blunder on video and via Instagram, Twain leaned into the hilarity by responding with “😂😂😂❤️❤️❤️,” before sharing it on her own social media page. “I’m really glad someone captured this moment, it made me laugh all over again,” she captioned the clip.
Fans immediately took to Twain’s comments section to praise her ability to laugh off a mistake. “🤣🤣Still so beautiful and talented. Glad you’re still having fun and enjoying what you do! ✨😍🔥,” one user wrote, while another added: “The way you continued this flawlessly is amazing and pure in the moment 🙌🔥❤️❤️❤️❤️.”
Others took the opportunity to squash any rumors that Twain might not sing live at her shows. “Proof she’s not lip-syncing,” someone said. “That shows she’s really singing along live,” a second fan agreed.
Twain is currently in the middle of her Planet Hollywood residency, Come visit – The Las Vegas Residency – All the hits! which started earlier this month.
“It’s a very special time for me,” Twain said CBS mornings in April 2023 after announcing the residency. “I’m happier than ever to be on the podium. I just love life, love sharing my new music and… just feeling really happy and I just hope to come up and bring some inspiration and more positivity.
Drop by marks Twain’s third stint in Vegas. She previously headlined her first Vegas residency from 2012 to 2014 at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace, and her second, Let’s go!, at the Zappos Theater at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino from December 2019 to June 2020. While her previous residencies have often focused on deeper cuts, Drop by is all about her biggest hits – especially those from her 1997 album of the same name, such as ‘Man! I feel like a woman,” “From this moment on,” “You’re still the one,” and “That doesn’t impress me much.”
The country crooner’s return to music comes after a time when she didn’t know if she would sing again after dealing with several health issues. “It took years to get to the bottom of what was affecting my voice, and I would say it probably took over seven years for a doctor to discover that it was nerve damage to my vocal cords caused directly by the disease. Lyme,” she says. told Loose women in 2020, “and I was just riding in the woods when I got bit by a tick, a Lyme tick.”
Twain eventually underwent open-throat surgery to help the condition called dysphonia, and is now back and feeling better than ever. In March, the musician opened up exclusively We weekly about her next chapter, calling it the “second wave” of her career.
