Sunday’s Glastonbury saw the highly-anticipated moment iconic singer-songwriter Shania Twain took to the stage for the coveted Legend Slot.
The country pop sensation got the crowd going but unfortunately some were left concerned as to whether she was facing difficulties on stage.
The 58-year-old kept urging the audience to sing along, occasionally reminding them of the lyrics.
“Well, before I move on – I want to say hats off to you, Glastonbury,” she enthused between songs.
“I mean, I just have to say thank you for sharing the experience – this is wild. I’ve been walking around since last night, driving around and getting through the crowds and through the tents and villages and this really is a city and it’s a community, and I do feel the privilege of being here, thank you very much for having me.”
Unfortunately, some of her vocals seemed off to listeners and festival-goers and they questioned if she was struggling with the live performance.

Many from the crowd as well as those watching on the BBC expressed their concerns, with one asking on X: “Is Shania having trouble with her ear pieces? #Glastonbury.”
“Why does Shania sound so bad? She can legitimately sing?? #Glastonbury,” another questioned.
“Is Shania Twain doing a tribute to Norman Collier’s faulty mic sketch?! Sound is well off. #Glastonbury,” another complained.
“I’m seeing Shania Twain next week at BST next week. Hoping she’s better than this…. eek. #Glastonbury,” one fan admitted.
“Shania Twain don’t impress me much. Is she OK? #Glastonbury,” another concerned fan asked as someone else shared: “Omg! Just turned on #Glastonbury and #ShaniaTwain sounds dreadful!”
Despite performing all her most popular tracks, including You’re Still the One, That Don’t Impress Me Much and Any Man of Mine, the singer appeared to struggle to keep up with many of the lyrics.
However, the crowd seemed keen to sing along, with the audience erupting into applause after each song.
Some suggested she could have been facing tech issues, and the concerns come just a day after 1980s legend Cyndi Lauper faced similar criticisms.
