Shania Twain’s ageless pics as 58-year-old star details fitness schedule

Shania Twain has been pictured in age-defying snaps as the 58-year-old took to the stage after sharing that she had surgery on her throat. The country music legend has recently released her latest album Queen of Me and will be performing at Glastonbury 2024, headlining the Legends Slot.

The singer explained how she prepares for her shows as she told the press: “I am an athlete, I have to breathe, I have to project. I have to pace everything. I only drink fluids all day until after the show. I drink my food, so I blend my food. Lots of blended ­spinach and blueberries.”

However, following her energetic shows, Shania insisted she would “eat whatever” washed down with a “glass of champagne”. She added: “After the show I am ready to chew. I am vegetarian, so I only eat ­vegetarian proteins, but I will eat whatever.

“I don’t eat like a rabbit. I am happy to have pasta, and I will have a glass of champagne after the show – I like to celebrate. It’s got to be good quality but I’m not a snob about it.”

Shania once feared her career was over after she contracted a disease which led to vocal chord damage. She was told she may never sing again after contracting Lyme disease and having open-throat surgery.

In her documentary for Netflix, Not Just a Girl, Shania explained how she had suffered ‘scary’ symptoms after contracting the disease on a horse ride. “The tick was infected with Lyme disease, and I did get Lyme disease,” she said.

The country star added: “My symptoms were quite scary because before I was diagnosed, I was on stage very dizzy. I was losing my balance, I was afraid I was gonna fall off the stage… I was having these very, very, very millisecond blackouts, but regularly, every minute or every 30 seconds.”

She added: “My voice was never the same again. I thought I’d lost my voice forever. I thought that was it, [and] I would never, ever sing again.”

Appearing on ITV’s Lorraine last year, the singer explained that her health battle had been “depressing and devastating”. She said: “It was quite depressing and devastating to imagine that [not being able to sing again]. Even speaking has been difficult with the Lyme disease.

“Now I’m just feeling so grateful that I can sing and express myself. And this now is my first album since the operation on my voice.”

Touching on the scary medical procedure, she said: “You have to be awake while they do it. I was more afraid of never singing again than getting through the operation.

“The reason you have to be awake for the operation is that you have to sing during it so they know exactly what to do.”
