0311.02-"My roots are country" [48
Hours]:
 The
media hype surrounding this weeks CMA's started tonight on CBS. On their
news show "48 Hours", they focused on "Big Country", profiling: Brooks and
Dunn, Reba McIntire, Kenny Chesney, LeAnn Rimes, and Shania Twain. A
very interesting choice, considering that Shania was snubbed for this
years CMAs. Shania also features prominently on CBS's advertising for the
award show. Shania is billed as "Country's Hottest Superstar" Shania
talked about her video image :“Often sexy...playful
at the same time,” says Shania. “Videos are just something I step into, a
role that you're playing. It's like dress-up time.” But in real
life, Shania says she covers her midsection: “I never walk around with my
midriff open, ‘cause I just couldn't be bothered with worrying if my gut
was hanging over or not.” Shania was
also asked if she was country or pop. Her answer:
“I would definitely be considered a pop
artist,” says Shania. “My roots are country, that’s for sure … As long as
Dolly Parton always likes my music, then I think I’m safe.”
