Shania Twain makes surprise appearance on Coachella stage
At the first Coachella festival since 2019, audiences on the first night of performances were shocked with a surprise performance from a music legend.
During Harry Styles’ headlining set at the show, the crowd went wild as the intro to Twain’s iconic girl power anthem Man! I Feel Like a Woman! began to play.
To the surprise of the 100,000-strong crowd, the Canadian songstress appeared on the stage, in a matching sequined outfit to mirror Styles.
Together the pair performed the 1997 song, with the audience singing and dancing along to every word.
Concluding the song, Styles spoke of his admiration of Twain and how she influenced his music tastes when he was growing up.
“In the car with my mother as a child, this lady taught me to sing. She also told me that men are trash,” Styles said when introducing Twain.
“To you, to the memories you gave me with my mother, I will be forever grateful. I’m so grateful you’re with us here tonight. This is very special for me.”
In a stripped back acoustic number, the pair then sang Shania’s 1997 track You’re Still The One, before Shania left the stage to an overwhelming crowd reaction.
The surprise guest appearance has delighted young and old music fans around the world, with many praising Styles’ expression of gratitude to the legendary singer.
With Styles set to play another Coachella headlining show in the coming weeks, many are excited at the prospect of another high-profile guest performer on the global stage.
