She's recently celebrated her 59th lap around the sun.
Remarkable to think the 'Queen of Country Pop' Shania Twain is nearing her 60th birthday.
But at a recent concert during her Las Vegas residency, the 'Man! I Feel Like A Woman' singer offered out the birthday surprises to her fans.
That's because - despite being a day after her actual birthday on 28th August - Shania brought out a very special guest.

Well, a group of special guests in fact, who just happen to be one of the most iconic vocal groups in R&B history.
In a video shared on Shania's official Twitter/X account, she revealed that Boyz II Men joined her for an incredibly unique couple of duets.
Shania's swathes of fans can be heard screaming their lungs out as Shawn Stockman, Nate Morris and Wanya Morris stepped onto the stage.
They accompanied Twain on a duet of her gorgeous 1997 country ballad 'You're Still The One', as well as Boyz II Men's timeless ode to love in 'I'll Make Love To You'.
That wasn't the only surprise in store, however - before leaving the stage, they gifted Shania a cake and sang an impromptu rendition of 'Happy Birthday' to her.
Naturally, they encouraged the crowd to sing along as the gobsmacked singer blew out her candles whilst looking overwhelmed.
"Happy birthday," the trio all said to Shania. "We truly appreciate you inviting us onto your beautiful stage."
