Country music superstar Shania Twain is doing it all during her Let’s Go residency at Zappos Theater at Planet Hollywood. Shania sits on a bar playing her guitar, rides her horse onstage and more. Suffice to say, Shania is having a blast here in Sin City!
“For me, the most exciting part of the show is when I break things down, and just the connection with the audiences. It’s almost the more intimate part,” she said.
What is her favorite song to perform for her Vegas fans?
“I think ‘, Man! I Feel Like a Woman’ is the comprehensive, liberating song,” she noted. “I would say, the best crowd song for me to enjoy is ‘Man! I Feel Like a Woman’.”
Life in Sin City
Millions of people go to Las Vegas every year to party and cut loose. When asked how she relaxes in Sin City, Shania said of her residency, “This puts me in a good mood, and then I go home after the show to my horses and put them to bed. My dogs and horses are my happy place in Las Vegas.”
The property Shania and her husband Frederic Thiebaud live on when she’s in Las Vegas. is 30 minutes from the Strip and a world away from Sin City. The quiet, desert landscape surrounding the city is a sanctuary for Twain. She even likes to go 4-wheeling after the show to unwind.
However, her ranch property in the Nevada desert isn’t the only place Shania and Frederic call home; the couple also owns an estate in the town of Corseaux, Switzerland, overlooking Lake Geneva, as well as a home in the Bahamas. That 7,000 square foot, 5 bedrooms, 6 bath home is in the very exclusive, gated community of Old Fort Bay, and sits on 1 acre of beachfront property. Finally, Shania Twain also owns what she calls a cottage, but what most of us would call a mansion, in the Lake of Bays area of Ontario, Canada.
I Still Believe
Shania co-stars in the newly released faith-based film, I Still Believe. It’s the true story of Christian music superstar Jeremy Camp, following him on and his journey of love, loss, and faith.
Riverdale actor KJ Apa stars as Camp, and performs Camp’s iconic the songs himself. Fifty-four-year-old Twain co-stars as Camp’s mother, Terry.
Keneti James Fitzgerald Apa’s father is Samoan and his mother is a European New Zealander. Apa was raised as a Christian, and he has stated in interviews that he maintains that Christian faith, and that he “needs God every day.”
Shania said of her costar, “When I showed up on set, KJ was playing around with a guitar. He’s genuinely a musical person.”
Shania went on to say transitioning into a movie star from a country star was, “so much bigger than doing a music video. But it’s less intense because music videos move real fast and moviemaking is definitely more of a slower process.” She also said she, “loved the fact that this movie is a true story. It’s such a beautiful story.”
Jeremy Camp and some of his family members were also there during filming to help oversee the story, and also to meet the stars.
“I also met the other family members, and I felt like they were inspired to share the story. I found that a big part of the tear it put in my heart,” she said of the heart-wrenching experience.
The story follows the up-and-coming Christian singer as he falls in love with a woman who is suffering from terminal ovarian cancer. The film follows the test of Camp’s faith as the love of his life passes away, he rises to fame, and finally, finds a new love.
I Still Believe is playing now in theaters nationwide.
