Shania Twain is all about exuding confidence. In a recent interview with People, the singer talked about ’embracing’ menopause and being ‘unashamed’ about her body. She decided to pose topless for the single art for her upcoming single “Waking Up Dreaming.”
The single will appear on the singer’s upcoming sixth studio album, Queen of Me (out Feb. 3).

“This is me expressing my truth. I’m comfortable in my own skin, and this is the way I am sharing that confidence,” Shania Twain, 57, tells People.
“I think the best fashion is confidence, and whatever you wear — if you’re wearing it with that, it’s fashionable. I am a woman in my late 50s, and I don’t need to hide behind the clothes. I can’t even tell you how good it felt to do nude shooting. I was just so unashamed of my new body, you know, as a woman that is well into my menopause. I’m not even emotional about it; I just feel okay about it. It’s really liberating.”
The country-pop icon revealed that she wanted to show women that they need to learn to be comfortable in their own skin, with the experience for the singer being “very fulfilling”.
Just weeks ago, Shania Twain received a Music Icon Award at the People’s Choice Awards. She stunned with a red leather ensemble before unveiling a tight-fitted rhinestone jumpsuit.
This isn’t the first time Twain has broken boundaries in country music with her art. For her debut 1993 music video “What Made You Say That,” she bared her midriff and went bra-less.
Shania Twain on why going nude
“From the very beginning — the very first video — I was ditching the bra,” says Twain, who has still struggled with body image like most. “But, I was a lot firmer then, so as I grew older, I started feeling a different pressure of, ‘Well, your breasts are not as plump as they used to be. Your skin is not as tight as it used to be. Maybe you should start covering it up a little bit more.'”
Shania Twain continues to show her ageless body and sing for her fans. However, she recently spoke out in her Netflix documentary about her near touch-and-go battle with Covid.
Shania’s Netflix documentary, Not Just A Girl, captures footage of the country megastar in London working on her sixth album.
She explained on the show: “It’s about the anxiety of running out of air.
“I had a very bad bout with Covid, with Covid pneumonia, and it was very touch-and-go. I was feeling like, oh my God, I just have to breathe.”
