Shania Twain Gets Ready for Glastonbury Debut with Rubber Boots and Cowboy Hat
Grammy-winning artist Shania Twain is gearing up for her first-ever performance at the iconic Glastonbury Festival, set to take place at Worthy Farm in June. The music sensation, known for hits like ‘Man! I Feel Like a Woman’, will be gracing the Pyramid Stage alongside headliners Coldplay, Dua Lipa, and SZA.
During an interview with Elizabeth Day on her podcast, Twain revealed her festival preparations, including packing rubber boots, or ‘wellies’, for the famed muddy grounds of Glastonbury. She also mentioned considering a cowboy hat for rainy weather while exploring the festival stages.
Twain, whose albums ‘Come On Over‘ and ‘Up!’ catapulted her to global stardom in the late ’90s and early 2000s, expressed excitement about her upcoming performance and the opportunity to connect with fans at the festival.
In the podcast discussion, Twain opened up about how she handles forgetting lyrics during performances, emphasizing that she tries not to be too hard on herself. She shared the emotional regret of her late mother not being able to witness her success, especially during milestone moments like award shows.
The announcement of Twain’s inclusion in the Glastonbury lineup comes following the release of her latest album, ‘Queen of Me‘, adding to her impressive discography. She joins a prestigious list of artists who have graced the Legends Slot at Glastonbury, including Diana Ross, Barry Gibb, Kylie Minogue, and Lionel Richie.
Aside from her Glastonbury debut, Twain is also set to headline the British Summer Time festival in London, sharing the stage with other musical icons such as Stevie Nicks, Robbie Williams, SZA, and more in a star-studded lineup.
With an array of talented artists scheduled to perform at this year’s Glastonbury Festival, including Michael Kiwanuka, Avril Lavigne, Keane, and many others, music lovers can anticipate an unforgettable experience spanning across multiple genres and styles.
