Fans lucky enough to catch Shania Twain at Glastonbury this weekend are in for a treat, as the singer hopes to ride a horse to the stage.
"I love horses. I love animals. I’m going to see if there’s a horse around, I can borrow,” the Canadian singer-songwriter, 58, told BBC Breakfast when asked if she had any special plans for her festival performance.
"I’d love to ride a horse to the stage. I’ll have to find out if it’s allowed."
Twain incorporated horses into her 2012 Las Vegas residency at the Ceasars Palace Colosseum. This featured her singing her hit You’re Still the One while sitting on a white horse.
Her video for the 2005 single Don’t! also featured Twain riding a horse through a yucca plantation. In April 2020, Twain sent a video recording into This Morning of her singing Man! I Feel Like a Woman — joined by her horse and dog.
She often appears on social media with her horses, including three Tennessee Walking Horses and two Saddlebreds.
