According to my DirecTV on-screen program guide, Shania will be a guest on "TODAY with Jenna & Sheinelle" on Friday, May 1 in New York City probably to talk about hosting the ACM Awards on May 17 and the new music she has been working on. It only says "singer-songwriter Shania Twain", nothing about performing. "TODAY with Jenna & Sheinelle" airs at 10:00-11:00am ET on NBC.
She might talk about music but I'm not sure an official announcement will come Friday. Maybe talk about the ACM awards and where she's at with new music. I also don't think she will perform a new song at an awards show. If it was like the last two albums maybe some TV interviews and some promotion. Wouldn't it be great if Shania released a new duet with Harry Styles? I know a dream however it's a good dream to have
I wonder when the lead single will be released? In the past she has announced singles at least a few days in advance. "Waking Up Dreaming" was announced 9/19/22 for 9/23/22 release. QOM album was announced 10/28/22 for 2/3/23 release.

She’s working with T Bone Burnett so the new music will probably sound more bluegrass/folkish than Queen of Me (I hope so…).
A duet with a current artist (Harry Styles? Taylor Swift?) would be a good promotional move and the only way to get a hit on the Billboard Hot 100…Madonna is releasing the lead single from the upcoming album with Sabrina Carpenter..clearly a strategy to target top streaming and sales chart.
I think she'll be quite vague; maybe she'll sing her new song and say it's coming out soon. But she'll probably announce the date on her social media and leave it to others to guess. I see it coming out in mid-May, just before the ACM Awards, or mid-June, just before the concerts with Harry Styles (which she'll have performed live beforehand at the ACMs). In 2017, she sang "Life's About to Get Good" in April, followed by a June release and a music video in July. She seems to have completely forgotten about TikTok too.
At the end of today's show, Jenna said "Tomorrow country music superstar Shania Twain will be here" with the picture used in the ACM Awards promo up on the screen.

I'm so confused as to what her plan is. If she doesn't announce an album and single date tomorrow then what is the promotion plan? I'm still not convinced she will be singing a new song at the awards show. So anyone want to take a jab of what the plan will likely be? She's so silent and it usually means something on the horizon right?
I hope this appearance is more promotional and not a repeat of when she appeared on James Corden in April 2017, tweeted “Looking forward to talking new music on the Late Late Show tomorrow” and then didn’t 😂

The show was taped yesterday. I'm not sure what she's doing here. Singing? Playing a game? There's no band so I don't think she's singing.
I was hoping Shania would perform a new song but you are probably right she doesn't
How would she sing without a band? Especially a new song. That would look very weird and fake. I think the hosts might be playing some kind of game with her where she sings lyrics to songs.

Before we saw this picture I was hoping Shania would perform. She needs to sing new songs, not hang fans. Know about Now and QOM
I would have no problem with her just announcing the album and maybe singing a bit from an older song for a game. This is 2026. She isn’t competing with Sabrina carpenter or other young artists. She is putting out songs for her own joy and the fun of fans who want to stick around
The background graphic with her logo (the same one used since QoM that’s based on her debut album cover) is suspect to me. Makes me think she will be announcing something. I don’t think they would put up her logo and graphics just for a normal interview.
She talked about her childhood and music, the ACM Awards and Harry Styles in London. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ABOUT THE ALBUM. All they said is we know you're working on new music and showed an Instagram post from last year. What a joke! Then they played a game where you have to finish the lyrics to a Shania song.

Yes, I was a little disappointed about the interview, I was hoping for more information about the new album.
Shania Twain on Academy of Country Music Awards, Harry Styles
Shania Twain joins TODAY’s Jenna Bush Hager and Sheinelle Jones to talk about hosting the Academy of Country Music Awards. She also reflects on her iconic “Come on Over” album turning 30 years old this year, opens up about releasing new music and discusses coordinating outfits with Harry Styles for their performance in London.

Yes just like the last two albums... crappy promotion! She's definitely releasing no single this month and like I said there will be no performance at the ACM awards. As a fan it is becoming ridiculous when it comes to music. The worst management team she has ever had.
Ever wonder how the #JennaandSheinelle team tests out games for the show? Here’s a sneak peek at planning "When the Beat Stops" for the amazing Shania Twain! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f9L3XGxfXIQ
