SHANIA TWAIN: SAVING MY FAMILY AT THIRTEEN
Let's Go Girls.... Shania Twain joins Jamie on Great Company to share her wisdom and optimism, always finding the silver lining in life.

From there she eventually went on to becoming an international superstar, but not without much grief and hardship, losing both her parents in a car crash [36:02], she also opens up about learning to let go and forgive [32:52].

    I would urge everyone to watch Girls Next Level episode about her book, with Holly, Bridget, and Hue's son, Marston Hefner. They have quite a different view of the situation. Crystal is REALLY rewriting history a bit. Worst of all, she changed the long standing will at the last minute. Shady shady shady.

    Shania f*cking Twain !!! legend and god shes been through it,I remember reading about her life years ago and thinking "wow you just have no idea whats someone's been through and it would have been so easy to look at her and think shes beautiful and all that and not realise all that s*it in her background. I wish her all the best and hope she keeps healing,losing her voice and having her voice still be restricted or strained like it sounds it is must be really hard,it sounds like a real effort to speak,never mind sing. I hope she rocks Glastonbury !!!!!
