Shania Twain stepped back into the spotlight last week to host the 2024 People’s Choice Country Music Awards 2024, and the reaction was… well, mixed.

At this stage Shania’s an icon of her genre, a songstress who’s popularity has spread worldwide and lasted for decades.

The Man! I Feel Like A Woman! hitmaker has earned her stripes, that much can’t be denied, so it shouldn’t really have come as a surprise that she was given the honor of hosting the People’s Choice Country Music Awards.

The gala, which took place at the Grand Ole Opry House in Nashville, Tennessee last Thursday, September 26, garnered plenty of attention.

As it happened, a good deal of it was focused on Shania, though likely not for the reasons she might have wanted.

As is often the case at such grand, glitzy events, Shania didn’t have one outfit the evening, but several. They ranged from a white fringe suit paired with a matching cowboy hat to a strapless corset top and a satin miniskirt beneath a black cape.

She later appeared in a shimmering red gown that the People’s Choice Country Awards official Twitter account decided was worthy of homage.

Suffice to say she stunned in all of her outfits… but what else can we expect from a woman with the poise and panache of the now-59-year-old Twain?

Unfortunately, not everyone agrees. No, after the awards had ended there were people online criticizing Twain’s performance as host, while her fashion choices became another subject of debate.
