Shania Twain: Ready to Step into the Spotlight Once Again

Shania Twain, known for her electrifying performance and soulful renditions of pop-tinged country music love songs, is one of the reasons why country music artists of today have been enjoying mainstream success. She is the first one among a few artists who dared to defy conventions and embrace a more pop sound while retaining her country roots. Apart from her chart-topping success and amazing climb to superstardom, she has also made a name for herself as one of the most beautiful women of her generation.

On December 1993, Twain married music producer Robert John “Mutt” Lang, and everything seemed to be perfect until in 2008 when the tabloids and the country music blog scene itself reported their separation due to his marital infidelity. Although she has withdrawn from the limelight in recent years, Twain is once again poised to reclaim her place in the spotlight with the announcement that she is about to have her own reality show called, “Why Not?”

The stunning 44-year-old country music star is set to begin production on her reality show, which will air in no less than the Queen of Talk’s network, Oprah Winfrey’s OWN cable channel. According to a press release, “The show will follow [Twain] as she begins her climb back to the top, a personal journey filled with risk, revelations and unexpected adventures.”

On why she has decided to come up with a reality show, the famous singer who brought to life immortal country music love songs such as “You’re Still the One” and “From this Moment On” said, “I feel like in a way I’m starting over, with everything. This is a very personal experience that I think is important to share. This is an experience of recovery. I was in a very deep, dark slump, and I needed to find a way to get myself out of it. I had to force myself back out into life, back out into experiencing things.”

The main frame of the show is to highlight the personal and professional journey that Twain has been undertaking to recover from her devastating divorce from her former husband, whom according to one country music blog to another, has admitted to having an affair with Twain’s assistant. The show is also meant to celebrate how she has recovered and found love again. On why she has chosen the title “Why Not”, Twain explained, “One day, someone said to me, ‘Do you want to go jump out of an airplane?’ I felt like I had nothing to lose anymore, so I said, ‘Why not?’ And every day since then, I ask myself that question.”

Although no premiere date has been announced, the show has already created buzz among her fans, prompting them to believe a new album of country music love songs might be in the works.
To this, Twain says, “There’s a lot of recovery to accomplish, I’m not there yet. I’m on my way there. I’m not sure I’ll ever be there.”

With this reality show, her road toward recovery is imminent. Embraced by her fans and admirers throughout the world, Twain will surely make her mark once again in the country music scene that once showered her with accolades and due respect.
