Shania Twain’s “Let’s Go!”: The Las Vegas Residency has come to an end and the singer revealed she’s feeling a bit sentimental about the closing of this chapter.
“Ending a tour or a residency is always so heartbreaking. The journey you go on with your team is always unique and bonding and the access you have to your beautiful fans is so special and exciting – so it’s very hard to say goodbye,” Twain shared on Twitter.
Luckily, with the power of social media, she’s able to keep the connection alive between her and her listeners until the next tour comes around. Twain recently used her platform to show her appreciation for her fans who attended the shows and the crew who made it all run smoothly each night.
“It was worse in the 90’s when I didn’t have social media to at least be able to say to those paying attention here – thank you to all the people who make the show possible, those on stage with me kicking butt and those behind the scenes also kicking butt…”
She added, “Thank you to my fans, thank you for choosing to spend your time with me, for the support, for your uplifting energy and love 🙏 Twain Town is a special place where we all choose to love one another and accept one another – we come together to PARTY – and I will miss you all 🥹❤️”
It’s no secret that the “Any Man Of Mine” singer has had a great impact on the music industry and the artists that follow her. According to a recent press release, she serves as one of “Las Vegas’ first female and country music headliners who has paved the way for other superstar residencies across the city.” These shows featured a high-energy production that added to the overall party experience for fans who got to celebrate the five-time Grammy winner’s successful career with her hits including “Man! I Feel Like A Woman!,” “You’re Still The One,” and “That Don’t Impress Me Much.”
Twain’s Vegas residency first opened in 2019 when she found her home in Zappos Theater at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino. Throughout this stint of shows, the singer made it a point to support her Shania Kids Can (SKC) Foundation by donating $1 of every purchased ticket to the non-profit organization. As a way to honor the end of her run in Vegas, Twain has teamed with Live Nation Las Vegas and Caesars Entertainment to present SKC with one final donation of $150,000.
This organization was founded by the singer in 2010 in an effort to lend a helping hand to kids facing poverty and crisis at a time when they should be living a stress-free life. Through the offered programs and support services that give them the proper coping skills needed to exceed in life, SKC lets kids know they are not alone.
“I promised myself in my own childhood that someday I would help kids just like myself cope with their disadvantages and prosper in spite of those challenges. By supporting SKC Clubhouses, Shania Kids Can is fulfilling that promise,” Twain says in quote displayed on the organization’s website.
With more than 90 million albums sold worldwide, fans everywhere are anxiously awaiting to see what Shania Twain does next. Fans can stay tuned to her social media pages for updates.
