Shania Twain, 57, poses topless in racy snaps

Man! I feel like an (empowered) woman! Shania Twain, 57, poses topless to make a statement about ‘being comfortable in my own skin’

Shania Twain stripped off for a topless photoshoot in order to make a statement to the world that she’s ‘comfortable’ in her own skin. 

The 57-year-old singer looked sensational as she posed in just a pair of heeled boots and fringed skirt, using her hands and a cowboy hat to protect her modesty. 

After four decades in the industry, the Canadian singer revealed that she no longer cares what anyone has to say about her and wanted to promote self-love and acceptance.

She told The Sun: ‘I styled that photograph myself. It was all about taking off the bra, taking off the shirt, tying the shirt around my waist.

‘This is a statement of being comfortable in my own skin and just being really myself.’

Asked about the criticism stars such as Madonna get for donning racy ensembles, Shania hit back: ‘You have to be strong. I never really get angry with criticism. You can’t please everybody, that’s normal.’

The racy shoot comes as Shania prepares to take on a new role, taking on the part of Mrs. Potts in ABC’s Beauty and the Beast: A 30th Celebration special.

The special presentation will also include, ‘live never-before-seen musical performances and features brand-new sets and breathtaking costumes inspired by the classic story.’
