Social media reacts to Shania Twain set at Glastonbury 2024

Shania Twain has taken over the Pyramid stage at this year’s edition Glastonbury Festival and social media has been reacting to her performance.

The country icon performed the coveted legend’s slot at the annual music bash at Worthy Farm. Previously sharing that she wanted to “borrow” a horse for her performance, Twain arrived with a group of drag queens all holding up toy horses.

There was a massive turnout for her set. Hundreds of thousands made their way to the Pyramid stage to see her play. She opened with her 1997 hit ‘That Don’t Impress Me Much’.

Upon singing the first lines of the track, fans and viewers took to X/Twitter to express their concern over Twain’s singing. “Watching Shania Twain delivering a mediocre performance of That Don’t Impress Me Much at Glastonbury and trying to think of a witty way to tweet my feelings about it,” wrote one user.

However, other fans seemed to enjoy Shania’s performance, with one user writing: “Great set by Shania, very enjoyable.”

More on Shania Twain – she sounds like someone washing up whilst listening to the radio and occasionally joining in off key.

Though many were confused about the livestream’s sound during the singer’s set at the music festival, others were in awe of her performance. “Shania Twain looks incredible some dodgy notes here and there but what a performer! So many bangers,” wrote one user.

Another user shared that Twain sounded amazing live and BBC should look into what went on during the live stream. “Anyway in better news, Shania actually sounded amazing live for people who were actually there so bbc need to fire someone asap,” they wrote.
