Shania Twain has addressed her on-stage accident that saw the country music icon fall over and land on her bum mid-performance - before recovering seamlessly.
The 57-year-old Canadian star was performing a gig on her Queen of Me Tour while on-stage at the Credit Union 1 Amphitheater in Tinley Park, Chicago on Saturday night.
During her hit, Don't Be Stupid, Shania took a tumble with her landing on her bum in front of a packed crowd. But she didn't let that stop her from putting on a glitzy show for her loyal legion of fans.
And now the country icon has addressed the tumble, with her taking to Twitter to make light of the on-stage accident. Shania shared a news article about the fall she suffered over the weekend and wrote: "I did stick the landing though," complete with a winking face emoji.
