Shania Twain’s recent sunglasses-wearing and altered appearance spark fan speculation.

Shania Twain’s appearance has been a source of concern for fans for months, and the singer’s recent refusal to take off her sunglasses during an interview is only fueling the speculation about what’s going on.

Concerns have been voiced by fans regarding the pop star’s latest appearance in an interview with Greatest Hits Radio. During the interview, Shania Twain shared exciting news with host Ken Bruce about her upcoming performance in the prestigious legends slot at this year’s Glastonbury Festival of Contemporary and Performing Arts.

Fans Questioned What Shania Twain Is Hiding

However, the focus of fans was not on her performance announcement, but rather on her looks. Though she was bright in a leopard outfit, many fans were confused as to why Shania was wearing sunglasses during the entire special, even though it was indoors.

The dark, large frames hid much of her face, with her should-length hair framing her cheekbones. Shania also wore a pair of oversized headphones for the radio interview.

One social media user questioned, “Why sunglasses on,” under an Instagram post promoting the interview. Another speculated whether the singer might be concealing something, such as a skin condition, though Twain has declined to respond to the speculation thus far.

This isn’t the first instance where fans have expressed worry about Shania’s evolving appearance. In May, some fans said the country legend looked completely unrecognizable.

Taking to Instagram, the singer caused a stir when she revealed her new hairstyle—a light pink shade, which marks a significant departure from her typically natural-colored hair. But the unnatural hue wasn’t the reason fans were surprised by the post.

While numerous fans praised the vibrant pink look, many were more captivated by Shania’s facial features, with several suggesting she appeared unrecognizable.

The comments on her post revealed a mix of reactions. Many followers initially mistook her for other celebrities before realizing it was Shania. One person wrote, “Anyone else think this was Sofia Vergara?” to which another responded, “First thought.”

A different comment read, “I did yes actually I’m not alone then.” Another fan speculated, “[I] was thinking Denise Richards.” Some comments simply noted that Shania didn’t look like herself, without specifying what had changed.

One follower remarked, “That picture does not even come close to looking like you,” while another stated, “Been a fan for years, had no idea who this was.”

After the start of Shania’s world tour last year, a Reddit thread emerged, questioning her changed appearance and behavior, proving the speculation over her changing looks has been going on for a while.

The original poster noted, “Her behavior is super weird. She doesn’t even look like the same person.” They referenced her well-documented vocal cord nerve damage but emphasized their observation was about her behavior.

Responses to the thread echoed similar sentiments. One comment critiqued, “She’s so messy. Her shows have been terrible. Honestly, it’s gotten so bad that it’s ruining her backlog for me.” Another commenter suggested she might be experiencing a “mid life crisis.”

Many agreed that her performances during the world tour did not meet their expectations, though Shania seems to be keeping quiet despite the backlash.
