Shania inducted to Music Hall of Fame
All-time best-selling female artiste Shania Twain was inducted to the Canadian Music Hall of Fame recently.
According to the Canadian Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences (CARAS), the country-pop singer will be formally inducted to the Hall of Fame at the Juno Awards in
Toronto March 27. The Juno Awards are Canada’s equivalent of the Grammy awards. “Shania Twain revolutionised the look and sound of country music, and truly is one of the most accomplished and celebrated music artists of her era,” said Melanie Berry, president and CEO of CARAS, in a statement. We’re so proud to honour her at home in the Canadian Music Hall of Fame,” she said.
The top-selling female artiste in history has sold more than 45 million album worldwide and won 12 Juno awards.
Twain has just married Swiss businessman Frederic Thiebaud. Last year, Hello magazine had adjudged Shania as the “Most Beautiful Canadian”. Born at Timmins, up north from Toronto, Twain is also set to have her own show Why Not? With Shania Twain on Oprah Winfrey’s OWN cable channel.
