0410.30-Timmins aflutter over Twain [Canada]:

STNAOFC webmaster, Francesca Vassallo is positively giddy about making her fifth trip in four years to the sleepy northern Ontario city of Timmins. he political science professor from Portland, Maine wants to be with fellow Shania Twain fans when the singer returns home Tuesday to cut the ribbon on a museum dedicated to her career. "For every Shania fan, it's a dream come true to go to Timmins," said Vassallo."Everything Shania says about the city is true. It really is the city with the heart of gold."

0410.29-"Eja was a real trouper" [Toronto Sun]:

Twain and hubby/uber-producer Robert John "Mutt" Lange may try for another child in her down-time, she said there are no plans to give three-year-old son Eja a sibling. "He's beautiful and we're having such a great time," said Twain. "If it happened, it would be an accident, let's put it that way. We're not planning another one. I'd always welcome another child, but we're not going to plan for it. And we're quite happy the way we are. We've got so much to look forward to, with the (Up!) tour ending, and Eja's going to be starting school in a year or so. I look forward to all those things. I won't want him to start school earlier than he has to. I'd like to wait until he's five if I can." Incidentally, Twain doesn't think turning 40 is a big deal: "It doesn't make any difference. You change physically, but I'm happy to do that." Twain did say that Eja surprised her by how much he enjoyed going on the road for Up! "He did great. He was a real trouper about it all. He had his bed on the bus. He loved the bus. Whenever we'd leave it to go somewhere, the bus couldn't come with us or whatever, he'd go (adopts little boy tone) 'Where's my bus? I want my bus!' "

0410.29-"a change of direction..." [Toronto Sun]:

...."Really my goal probably for the next year is just writing," said Twain, 39, relaxing on a couch in one of the hotel's ballrooms and dressed casually in a black hoodie, grey shirt and black pants with matching black boots. "I need to write again. So I don't know when the next album's going to be. I don't know when the next tour is going to be. And I think that what this album represents, for me, this greatest hits, is a period of pause." Twain said she didn't even know what musical direction she may take for her next studio album -- the official follow-up to her 2002 release Up!. "I don't know if I want to change direction," said Twain, who lives about 15 minutes outside Montreux in the exclusive neighborhood of Tour-de-Peilz. "I've entertained the idea of doing a really rootsy, country sound; it would be more on the bluegrass side. Would I want to do a straight-ahead pop record? I've entertained the thoughts of doing just duets with all my favourite artists. I've thought of maybe doing an album of covers of my favourite classics. And so what kind of album is the next album going to be? I don't know. I have to think about it a little more." ....

More information on Shania's upcoming CMT Specials:

SHANIA TWAIN: CMT INSIDER SPECIAL EDITION premieres Friday, Nov. 5 at 10:00 PM, Eastern; 9:00 PM, Central; 11:00 PM, Mountain; and 10:00 PM, Pacific. Summary: Shania comments on her first
No. 1 single (1995) written with husband Mutt Lange. "'Any Man Of Mine' was a risky song to release. At the time a lot of people were afraid of it. It was way too edgy for what was going on. It really threw a lot of people off, but I call that my career song. That's the song I think that really, really broke me in a big way, because it was so different. It became signature of what Mutt and I have continued to do. It's really a good example of what we are as a combination writing team." In addition, Shania talks to CMT INSIDER about turning 40 next year. "I think I've done so much in such a concentrated period of time that age isn't going to change me. You have to be confident in what you've achieved. I just feel comfortable moving on to whatever it is." Shania tells CMT about the attitude her mother, who died at age 42, had about age. "I remember when she turned 40 she said 'I'm just so happy to be getting older, maturing. I wouldn't change it for anything.' So many benefits come with that," Shania said.

0410.22-"Shania" the movie update [wawatay]:

This is the back-story of one of the most successful female artists of all time,” said O’Donnell of the film, which is scheduled to air in the spring of 2005 through CBC. “It will take our audience from a gangly eight-year-old with a powerful voice who was singing in northern Ontario’s bars for tips to the determined teenager dragging a Sudbury band into the limelight.” The show will then bring audiences to Nashville and an industry that wanted her voice, but not her music, and to her first encounter with renowned music producer Mutt Lange. “This is a story about one girl’s triumph over really difficult odds,” O’Donnell said...The film’s screenplay was written by Shelley Eriksen with research by Robin Eggar, author of Shania Twain. It covers the period from 1973 to 1993. Not only will Shania be broadcast on CBC in the spring of 2005, it will also be aired on W Network and CMT.

Though Currington's Walk a Little Straighter and I Got a Feelin' both peaked higher than Party for Two has (it's No. 19 on the Radio Monitor country chart), the duet has increased his profile dramatically.

Universal Music and Twain’s management are working closely with the centre to make sure everything runs smoothly, Hautanen said.....The centre is hoping to fill the parking lot, which they estimated will fit about 5,000 people. “We’re going to have live entertainment, music and refreshments,” Hautanen said. “We want to keep people in an upbeat mood until Shania takes the stage.” Although most fans traveling from out of town have have likely seen Twain in concert, Hautanen said this will be a different experience for them. “They are excited to be seeing Shania in her hometown, and to see her unveiling the building named after her,” she said.

CTV crews will be following her all day, filming a one-hour special.
