Shania Twain laughs off blunder on stage as fans react — here's what she had to say

The "That Don't Impress Me Much" singer couldn't help but laugh

June 3, 2024

Over three decades into her career, Shania Twain has established a reputation for herself as not only one of the most influential country-pop artists, but also one of the most professional.

The 58-year-old Canadian musician is currently residing in Las Vegas while commandeering her latest residency Shania Twain: Come On Over — The Las Vegas Residency — All The Hits!, and it's already gotten off to an eventful start.

Kicking off last month, the latest run of shows is slated to continue till December, and it's not just eye-catching fashion Shania's been serving, but also candid moments.

One of the star's on-stage moments during a recent show caught the eye of fans, and a clip of the incident has quickly gone viral and made the rounds on the internet.

While performing her 1995 song "(If You're Not in It for Love) I'm Outta Here!" Shania also joined her background drummers for a drum solo, and performed half the song with a drumstick in her hand.

However, at one point, just before the chorus, she ended up confusing the drumstick for her microphone, and tried singing through it. As she realized her blunder, she quickly tried to pull off a switcheroo and correct herself.

Of course, as charismatic as always, Shania was left in hysterics by the incident on stage, bending over in laughter and shouting out: "Oh my god! That was hilarious!"

The singer took it in good spirits, singing out of her drumstick a couple more times for comedic effect while seamlessly carrying on the show and continuing to giggle throughout. A fan captured the moment on video and shared it on social media, and it quickly began sparking up a frenzy.

Fans found Shania's reaction to the gaff extremely charming, while many also took it, at the very least, as an indicator that she was in fact singing completely live, and composed herself rapidly enough to keep going.
