Shania Twain is feeling the heat!!
In case you missed it, the Canadian songstress sat down for an interview with The Guardian, revealing she would have voted for Donald Trump in the 2016 election if she was able to.
Unsurprisingly, there was A LOT of backlash going her way!

The starlet released a statement on Sunday (April 22), basically explaining her previous sentiments:
“I would like to apologize to anybody I have offended in a recent interview with the Guardian relating to the American President. The question caught me off guard. As a Canadian, I regret answering this unexpected question without giving my response more context. I am passionately against discrimination of any kind and hope it’s clear from the choices I have made, and the people I stand with, that I do not hold any common moral beliefs with the current President. I was trying to explain, in response to a question about the election, that my limited understanding was that the President talked to a portion of America like an accessible person they could relate to, as he was NOT a politician. My answer was awkward, but certainly should not be taken as representative of my values nor does it mean I endorse him. I make music to bring people together. My path will always be one of inclusivity, as my history shows.”
Considering how she was dragged online, we’re not surprised to see the You’re Still the One singer backtracking!
Just see some of the savage tweets (below):
