Shania Twain made a dazzling return to the spotlight last week as the host of the 2024 People’s Choice Country Music Awards, and, as expected, she had everyone talking. The Canadian country superstar, known worldwide for hits like Man! I Feel Like a Woman!, has spent decades cementing her place as one of the genre’s true icons. So when she was tapped to host the awards in Nashville, Tennessee, at the legendary Grand Ole Opry House on Thursday, September 26, fans knew it was going to be a memorable night.
And memorable it was—though not always for the reasons you might expect. As with any major awards show, fashion was front and center, and Twain didn’t disappoint. She changed looks multiple times throughout the evening, starting with a white fringe suit paired with a matching cowboy hat, moving on to a strapless corset top and satin miniskirt under a dramatic black cape, and finally stepping out in a glittering red gown that earned praise from the People’s Choice Country Awards’ official Twitter account.
Twain, now 59, exuded her signature poise and charm in every outfit, proving she can still command the stage with the best of them. But not everyone was on board with her hosting debut. Some viewers took to social media to critique her performance, while others debated her daring fashion choices.
Love her or leave her, Shania Twain reminded everyone why she’s remained a force in country music for decades—glamorous, confident, and unapologetically herself.
