If Shania Twain is making one thing clear, it's that "Life's About to Get Good" in your 50s.
The 58-year-old music icon is showing off her toned legs and colorful hair on the cover of Haute Living magazine, where she says she is in her "Making the Most of Life" era.
The "Man! I Feel Like A Woman!" legend donned pink, blonde, and brunette wigs as she graced the magazine cover. In the new photos, Twain sports chic bodysuits and high heels while posing inside what appears to be a high-end restaurant.
The bold fashion statement comes as Twain prepares for the launch of her new Las Vegas residency. Those who enjoy her stunning new looks throughout the new magazine spread can see them come to life in her Come On Over! shows, which are set to deliver the same amount of glamorous fashion like you've never seen it before.
"I'm definitely going to focus on fashion for the upcoming shows," she told the publication. "It will be a different wardrobe than anyone has ever seen, but it's also an entirely different show from anything I've done before. It's going to be more athletic, more dynamic in terms of the talent on stage. It's going to feel more energized than ever."
Starting up another rigorous performance slate on the Strip is not how many people see themselves approaching 60, but Twain hopes that her drive to constantly outdo herself is an inspiration. She tells the magazine that she feels better than ever at her current age, adding that she would much rather be where she is now than any other age.
"I always think that the worst thing in life is to be a baby. Ever since I had a child, I always thought that it must be so difficult because you're trapped in this little body, and you can't express yourself. It's like being a prisoner," she continued. "So, I've always thought that the only freedom you have when you're trapped is your mind. That's where a baby's imagination must develop the most. The happiest babies are the babies that self-soothe, because they're entertaining their own escapism as they're developing; their minds are already [figuring out] how to escape. That has always fascinated me."
She looks back on her storied career, Twain's impact on the music industry has been seismic. However, she says that she never "intended on being a trailblazer" for artists like Taylor Swift, Maren Morris, Kacey Musgraves, or Carrie Underwood. It was just a result of her ability to authentically express herself.
"I was just trying to be original, my authentic self, and to do it with conviction. I'm an expressive person, and I put that into my music. I was saying it with attitude and with confidence because I meant it. Yes, I see it as a great compliment when someone calls me a trailblazer, but it's not like I set out to do so. I was just being myself, and I think that's served me very well."
Specifically zoning in on Swift, Twain says that the Tortured Poets Department artist's success is a result of her intense work ethic and passion. Twain says that she still reaps the rewards of owning her passion to carry out the goals she set for herself early on in life. Throughout her perseverance, she is proud to have never wasted her talents by slowing down. Before Swift was inspiring worldwide audiences with each of her "eras," Twain was doing it herself.
"I was telling a story, then, of a woman who decides to put her masculine foot forward, and at the same time, in tandem, a feminine foot. It was me saying 'I have esthetics and a brain, and they are both here at the same time.' It was a statement period, the Shania era, but I didn't realize it at the time."
With an opening night at Planet Hollywood scheduled for May 10, Twain is looking forward to getting back to what she does best. But if you're in the audience, don't expect anything you've seen from her before.
"I could easily be doing the same thing, spending my time the same way, never stopping for a minute, but I think that now, I have more to give than I ever have before."
