Vancouver 2010 Olympics!!


Go to the Vancouver olympic website and tell them that you sure hope Shania will be a big part of the Olympics.
Would Shania even show Canada respect and attend and be a big part of the Olympics because I am sure she was asked a long time ago?
Go to the webite and contact them and tell them what you think.

Hey Walter.. You are doing the flip flop again..... From everything you have said reguarding ALL the things she won't do or won't attend,I find it REALLY hard to believe,that YOU believe, she would EVER attend... Pesonally I think there is a chance she might, but based on your posts  there can be no way that you think she would unless it would be to promote an CD that we don't know anything about yet.  Bob

You are right, Shania snubbs everyone and everything because she is insecure and weak as she says. But even Shania would have to think twice about supporting her country in the biggest event in the world. She even wore the Vancouver Olympics 2010 sweater inbetween her perfume photo shoots in Spain in 2006.
I am sure they contacted her long ago and have asked her to take part in a very significant way. So if she doesn't go then she has snubbed Canada and has shown how really selfish she is.

Hey Walter... You might want to think this out.. Being a British Columbia resident(host province to the olympics) I am sure you have already submitted your volunteer to the games application.. What a bummer it would be to have your appication accepted,Shania agrees to attend, BUT you application gets overturned due to your anti Shania remarks on the net.. Remember..They are saying the security for this one will be tighter than ever... I am not saying you are as risk but THEY sure wouldn't chance it... Bob

That's two years away!  I don't know what I'm dong two weeks from now!  Seriously, you need to calm down, Walter.  What's Shania going to do at the Olympics anyway?  Twirl a baton, maybe a little figure skating?  laughing.gif

Hey Angie...Like the little edge thing you got going tonight. Anyhow, it would be wonderful if Shania did appear.. Maybe to sing during the opening ceremony. Personally I think it is a long shot but HEY, this is coming from a guy that is predicting her to get called out on stage by Elton next month. Anyhow I am going to throw in a request on their site as well .. What can it hurt... Personally I think the angle to take to sweeten the pot is to promise to let her help muck out the stalls of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police horses. Now THAT might work... Bob

That has to be the stupidest thread post ever lol!!!!
Anyone who says anything against Shania or anyone at the  Olympics can't go lol!!!!
Better round up all of those Celine bashers too since she is performing at the opening ceremonies lol!!!

It just goes to show you how much you know about the Olympices and what an honor it would be to represent your country in any way possible.
Like I said Shania was contacted a long time ago to be a big part of the Olympics because she is one of Canada's biggest stars. They prepare many  years in advance  for such a huge event like this and people who are asked to be part of it set aside the date many years in advance.
What is Shania giong to say, Oh sorry, I dont' know what I will be doing in Feb of 2010> lmao!!!!!
Its the fricken Olympics, of course those asked  will want to be part of their own countries Olympics as soon as they are asked to.
And did you you say what is Shania going to do there? lol!!!!
The same as any   other big  name for their country, either perform at the  opening or closing ceremony or light the torch.
Celine Dion is performing at the opening Ceremonies.
Angie, you need to get your act together if you are even a Shania fan or not. Your comments about the Olympics and Shania prove you are not in touch with reality just like Shania seems to be not in touch with reality.

But Walter.. AGAIN you are flipping. You state that because she MAY have been asked she will in your words be honoured..Now you know ,that I remember all of your posts that beat up on her for  being disloyal  not only to her fans but to great Government of Canada tributes.. So where does this new Walter mindset come up with that Shania is now loyal....I hope you are not putting too much into the olympic shirt thing that she was wearing.. I should remind you that on the Up tour shania wore game sweaters in every arena in North America saluting that rinks home team.. Does that mean she supports all those teams?  Of course not... ALSO... Amendment asked you to support the article which states that Shania was asked to perform.. You have yet to respond... Please don't go with that inside info junk either. We all know that if you really had inside info your source would dry up real quick once you started posting it on forums... Also please post a photo of Shania wearing the olympic shirt.. Tommy always loves new photos for the site... Unlike you Walter, I will not accuse you of being an outright liar on forums. Having said that to report that Shania is considering appearing at the largest viewed TV event in the universe with out some evidence other than your views is really not too responsible.   Bob

Bobby, once again you are being naive. First of all if you want to see the sweater than Shania wore then go look at the Spain perfume photo shoots that tommy has already posted in his picture archive.
As for Shania being asked, I sent an email to the Vancover organizing group soon after Vancouver was awarded the Olympics. They said Shania and other top Canadian stars would be asked to be a significant part of the Olympics.
There is no doubt that Celine,Shania and Bryan adams who are all known internationally were the first to be asked. Celine is part of the opening ceremony, the only question is will Shania snub Canada or will she help honor Canada at the biggest event in the world.

Yes, Shania wore the zipper sweater while in Spain. I do believe that is showing support for the up coming games in 2010. I've also emailed the Canadian Olympic committee several months ago as have many fans. This proposal had already been brought up around the Shania fan community but it doesn't hurt to remind them once again and a few times before 2010 yet.

My reply was that they will definitely keep Shania in mind that they would want the best in Canadian entertainment to represent in some way but that planning and ideas were still much in the air and a duration away. I'm sure if Shania can perform the Grey Cup and Super Bowl during the same season, something like the winter games in her native land of Canada must carry some prestige with her. I'm sure she'd be honored and will be involved in some way.

Well if she chooses to ,that will be great but right now my thoughts are on March 2nd... With the Elton concert quickly approaching I figure there might be a local spoting this weekend. Will update you if anything on the locals news(toronto etc). I did see a stretch limo yesterday around 3:00pm on Hwy 400 northbound. Having said that it could be many of the major Lake Rosseau players heading to their waterfront estates but personally I would rather believe it was her inside... Heading up to Lake of Bays for the weekend before off to the big show...  Ladies and gentlemen...At this point of the show I would like to call out a very very special friend of mine who just happened to grow up not too far from here.....  ANYHOW.....Hey Shania... Have to say ..You blew it on this one...I know I know...The stalls needed to be mucked....    As far as Vancouver Olympics... I will join walter with his dream on this one...Just stay on your side of the bed.....Bob

I know enough about the Olympics as I know how to SPELL it!  biggrin 
You're totally right, Walter!  I DO need to "get my act together" to see if I'm a Shania fan or not!  LOL!  What a ridiculous comment to make!  Why, because I said who makes plans over two years in advance?  Yes!  That does mean I'm not a Shania fan!  Wow!  You are so correct!  I've see the light!  thumbsup.gif  Ugh!   bleh

Walter.. IF everything you have posted on the forum is correct she WILL snub Canada and the olympics as she,according to you ,has zero loyalty. Pesonally I think you are wrong and there is a good chance she will attend IF she is asked. You have indicated that she has lost much of her fan base. I really don't think she has but if the organizers agree with you then they likely will not even ask her do to lack of fan support. If she is suffering from mental issues as you have posted she would not be able to deal with something of this magnitude. If she has no respect for her country which you have posted or her fans which you also have posted then the olympics would not mean anything to her anyway. Again I think you are wrong. I believe she loves Canada and her fans. If you believe that she is a liar as you have said many times then she might say she will attend but then change her mind. Personally I disagree with you again on this issue... Anyhow.. Time will tell but I can't feel you will be all that disappointed if she declines due to your anti Shania comments. Personally I would be thrilled...Bob

Hey Walter... I should say however this was a great posting..concept that is. Since it has already been announced that Ms Dion will open I really do not think Shania will allow herself to take a back seat and likely will not perform IF she is asked. I have little doubt that the olympic commitee who are WAY ahead of schedule will wait around for her to decide. As far as the many non canadians that view this site I can assure you of one thing... The word is that canadian Gordon Lightfoot is being asked to attend. I realize this might be hard to understand but this is a 100 percent slam dunk truthful statement... If you were to poll 1000 canadians from east to west...north to south and asked...Would you rather see Shania or Lightfoot represent us at the games my call would be 70 percent for Lightfoot... Yes..I love Shania but my vote to would go to Lightfoot... He is what Canada is and all about and canadians know it. Since all games like to reflect the character of the host nation Gordon is the obvious....  Maybe an american could vote on this one to give you an example....It is your winter games.... Who would you feel suits the setting...Willie Nelson or Beyonce??... If you answered Beyonce then you need I would suggest to figure out what olympics are all about...Bob

Its called a typo lmao!!!  This is a message board not an essay!!!
Angie, you have been dishonest with the fans and are leading them on.
I don't believe anything you say about Shania because  you have proven to know nothing and are just leading them on.
You will find out just  how much of Shania's fan base is gone because of people like you and her management.
As for the Olympics, get over it, people schedule their plans years before a special event like that.

Hate to break it to you Bob, but you are wrong again.
If  you polled only people over 50 then maybe but if you poll the whole nation it wouldn't even be close. Shania wins all polls in this nation and is by far the most popular Canada act.
It wouldn't even be a contest, the majority of Canadians love Shania Twain and many don't even know who Gordon Lightfoot is or his songs.
Anyone under 30 wouldn't even know one of his songs.

Once again Bobby, you or I  know nothing at all about what her plans are.
We have no idea who is closing the ceremonies or  who is going to light the Olympic torch.

I think that we tend remember the good old Shania days(grey cup,superbowl etc)... At that time it was in her intrest to get out there.... To me Shania just does not seem to be showing much intrest in the...."look at me,I am Shania" events any more.. Personally I would say that the chances of a 2008 CD are even better than Shania at the olymics but will still hold my position that we will see neither of them... Really hope I am wrong but if I had to lay down a major chunk of cash and place my bets,I know which way I would go... Bob

Once again, you are forgetting the point that Shania is very selfish and only makes appearances when she is promoting or in the middle of promoting a project.
So when her album is released expect alot of high profile appearances all bunched in a 2 year period from late 2008-2010.
It has nothing to do with Shania herself who has low self esteem and is very weak. it has to do with the fact she will promote her next project with tv specials and high profile events.
It is just that Shania fans have to wait 6 years inbetween big appearances and albums. We have to accept that Shania is lazy,selfish and has low selfesteem.
I really like Shania's music but I have to be honest about Shania the person.

Sorry Walter... Throw out the blueprint they used to build the last house. But personally I think Shania is finished building houses. She likes where she is and is not moving anywhere. That includes the 2010 games... It's called symbolism folks in case you miss my point. Why so many feel that 2008 is different than 2007 I have NO idea when it comes to the CD.. I think that the chances of a 2008 CD maybe 20 percent,the 2010 games nil.. Anyhow the will she or won't she CD thing is so old that it is boring.. Guess I am just a bit bored today so thought I would throw it out there to amuse myself reading replys about when she will release knowing that they know nothing. By the way the knowing nothing includes me and my 20 percent. Having said that no does ANYONE on this site... But I will stick for my 20 percent call...Bob

Bobby, you don't understand the music industry or Shania then, despite her contradicting comments in interviews.
When there is a new project Shania and Mutt are very commercial and will promote it very well because they want it to do well. She will follow the same promoting pattern as UP which was scaled down from COO big time.
During UP she only did the big appearances and interviews like superbowl,tv specials and date line interviews.
bottom line is when there is a new album, she will want it to sell as much as possible and will do all the big promotion she has to.

Actually I understand the music industry/marketing and so on very well. I also know how to read the reality of things VERY well. I find it difficult to grasp that you can not face  facts.. "The Hay day is over" Having said that,just like most politicians,you never like to respond to direct questions but rather twist the response to your favour. Having said that, I would ask you to, without some long self serving ramble to answer one simple question... "After years of  nothing what makes 2008 different"???.. Something intelligent with BASIS PLEASE(not magazine interviews). You have gone on and on PROMISING a Nov 2008 CD.. Without rambling about what will happen if she DOESN'T release this year, please tell us all what your basis is to support your confident call it will happen. I would ask you before you start typing to remember that you have told us not to believe ANYTHING she says  so PLEASE don't quote some of her interviews. Remember your comments suggesting that she is currently suffering mental disorders, remember your comments that she is lazy,remember your comments that she is not a true artist, remember your comments that she does not care about her fans.... SO..... Just the facts.....Why will she release this Nov??. What are you basing it on, and remember the response should not include your normal ramble about "if she does it means(followed by your normal rant)....AGAIN...JUST THE FACTS...WHY WILL SHE RELEASE IN NOV 08 AND WHAT DO YOU BASE THE OVERLY CONFIDENT STATEMENT ON......Looking forward to how a totally cornered in Walter will respond to a direct question.... I would give you one word of advise before you freak out and start typing.... Sit back and think it out because if you think I am good with "evidence in chief" questioning, you should see me on the Cross exam... Slip up on your response and I will cross exam you to your knees with the assistance on your many statements that all we all have access to review... TRUST ME WALTER.... This will be no hung jury... Again...Go slow Walter... I am already sitting with baited breath and already have my cross exam in place because you are so easy to predict but that I know how my cross exam will REALLY have you studdering... In the end... Our forum members herein known as the jury will render the verdict....Either Walter is actually King Walter or a total overconfident blowhard

Wow isn't that Shania something? I wonder what Shania would have done if she was asked while working at Deerhurst in 1988 to perform at the Calgary Winter Games?

Figuring since she thinks she's so high and mighty right now that she can spit in the face of her native land and 2010. (rolling eyes)

I've just come to the conclusion that the new album will not be out until November 2009, just like November 2002 right in time for the Gray Cup and Super Bowl, she'll be right in time for the February 2010 Olympics so she can take "advantage" and "sell" her product.

* sarcasm enough? *
