Shania Twain and Dolly Parton (Photo by Scott Suchman/WireImage) WireImage In 2003, Dolly Parton and Shania Twain graced the stage of the Oprah Winfrey Show. It was a moment that marked a dream come true for the Canadian singer-songwriter from Timmins, Ontario.
Like Parton, Twain began singing in bars at a young age and championed female empowerment while navigating a heavily male-dominated music industry. “What more can I say than that this is my hero, musical, and personal hero of all time. Beautiful person inside and out, and the person that I always wanted to grow up to be,” Twain said as Parton joined her onstage in a glittering sunset dress. The two launched into an unforgettable duet of Parton’s 1971 hit, “Coat of Many Colors.”
