Shania Twain returned to the spotlight last week to host the 2024 People’s Choice Country Music Awards, and reactions were anything but unanimous.
As a true icon of country music, Shania has earned global fame with hits like “Man! I Feel Like A Woman!” and a career spanning decades. Given her legendary status, it wasn’t surprising that she was chosen to host the prestigious event.
The awards show, held at the Grand Ole Opry House in Nashville on Thursday, September 26, drew plenty of attention. However, much of the focus ended up on Shania herself — though not for reasons she may have anticipated.
As is common at high-profile events, Shania Twain graced the stage in not just one outfit but several throughout the evening. Her looks ranged from a white fringe suit complete with a matching cowboy hat to a bold strapless corset top and satin miniskirt beneath a dramatic black cape.
Later in the night, Shania stepped out in a shimmering red gown, which even caught the attention of the People’s Choice Country Awards’ official Twitter account, paying tribute to her stunning style. It’s safe to say Shania wowed the audience with her fashion — but what else would we expect from the ever-glamorous 59-year-old?
However, not all reactions were glowing. After the show wrapped up, some online critics took aim at Twain’s performance as host, while her fashion choices sparked their own debates.
The critics seemed to focus largely on the idea that Shania Twain no longer looked like her former self, though what that truly means is up for debate. Many directed their comments toward her blonde hair, while others went as far as accusing her of “ruining her looks.”
One Instagram user bluntly commented, “Totally ruined her looks.” Another added: “Yikes 😬 that doesn’t suit her. Blonde not so much either.” A third remarked, “She’s not recognizable now; too sad,” while another suggested,“Bring back the brunette [color!]”
Yet another person nostalgically wrote, “I miss the Shania from back in the 1990’s.”
