omg, can u believe shania twain just used her award acceptance speech to call out country music for being super exclusive i mean, she literally said we're all family, but in reality, it feels like they're only including artists who fit the mainstream mold . anyhoo, i'm so here for shania's new tour lineup, featuring artists from underrepresented backgrounds! it's about time country music gets a little more diverse, u feel?

I'm so down with Shania on this one ! It's about time someone in country music speaks up for those who are getting left behind. I mean, have you seen the lineup for her tour? It's like a dream team of talented women and artists from underrepresented backgrounds . I love how she's using her platform to create change and pave the way for a more inclusive industry. And can we talk about that acceptance speech? Twain is truly a legend and an inspiration to so many people around the world . It's time for country music to step up its game and become the vibrant, diverse industry that it should be !
