The country star said that she may swap out Brad Pitt for Harry Styles in ‘That Don’t Impress Me Much’ during an upcoming performance
Is Shania Twain’s “That Don’t Impress Me Much” getting a redo?
During an appearance on the BBC podcast Sidetracked with Annie and Nick on June 3, the country star, 58, teased that a new celeb heartthrob may get a callout in her 1997 hit song. In the track, Twain croons, “OK, so you’re Brad Pitt / That don’t impress me much.”
In the interview, Twain was asked that if she was writing the lyrics now, would she swap out Brad Pitt for another man? She teased that she may do so while she performs the song during her upcoming set at the Glastonbury Festival in England on June 30. “I would say Harry Styles . . . and it sings good too,” said Twain.
She explained, “I sort of see Brad Pitt as a James Dean of his generation and I see Harry Styles as that as well. He’s rugged, but pretty, it’s like a charm that he has.”
Twain also confirmed that it wouldn’t be the first time that she swapped out Pitt for another person. “At a live show, I cheekily [sang] Ryan Reynolds since he was there,” Twain recalled. “It was very cute,”
In a January 2023 interview with Today.com, Twain recalled meeting Styles, 30, backstage at one of his shows when “he was just really on his way up.” Styles said that he listened to Twain’s music with his mom while growing up.
In a 2017 interview with Entertainment Tonight, Styles said that his “music and fashion [were] influenced [by] Shania Twain. I think she’s amazing.”
Styles later covered “Still the One” with his then-opening tour act Kacey Musgraves in 2018 and asked Twain to call his mom in honor of her birthday. Twain told Today.com in 2023 that the pair “stayed in touch ever since.”
Years later, Styles invited Twain to join him onstage at Coachella in 2022, where they performed “Man! I Feel Like a Woman!” and “Still the One” together.
