Shania Twain apologizes for saying she would have voted for Donald Trump

Shania Twain apologized for her comments and clarified she does "not hold any common moral beliefs with the current President":

I would like to apologise to anybody I have offended in a recent interview with the Guardian relating to the American President. The question caught me off guard. As a Canadian, I regret answering this unexpected question without giving my response more context

I am passionately against discrimination of any kind and hope it’s clear from the choices I have made, and the people I stand with, that I do not hold any common moral beliefs with the current President

I was trying to explain, in response to a question about the election, that my limited understanding was that the President talked to a portion of America like an accessible person they could relate to

My answer was awkward, but certainly should not be taken as representative of my values nor does it mean I endorse him. I make music to bring people together. My path will always be one of inclusivity, as my history shows.

Country star, Canadian citizen and Swiss resident Shania Twain did not vote in the 2016 U.S. presidential election, but she has indicated that she would have voted for Donald Trump if she had the opportunity to do so.

The singer discussed her long absence from recording and performing in the 2000s and an abrupt shift to American politics when she mentioned her vote would've gone to Trump.

"I would have voted for him because, even though he was offensive, he seemed honest," she says of Trump. "Do you want straight or polite? Not that you shouldn’t be able to have both. If I were voting, I just don’t want bulls---. I would have voted for a feeling that it was transparent."

I’d think that most of her American fans are Trump supporters. Nice way to piss off your fan base. What a putz.

WTF is she apoligizing? She isn't a Hollywood Star!

Lefties demand that you apologize for your own existence.

Walk on road. Walk right side, safe. Walk left side, safe. Walk middle, sooner or later, get squish, just like grape.

I saw a video of her recently and she’s turned into a clone of MaDonna, singing trashy rock songs and dressing like a prostitute. Her country music days are over.

Her new anti-Trump image sure (like her song) don’t impress me much.

When you are a Star & support TRUMP or Conservatism, you get massive backlash. I don't think there is anyone that didn't apologize! LOL

I remember Kelly Clarkson saying she supported Ron Paul or how about Spice Girl Geri Halliwell when she praised Margaret Thatcher? None of them held strong on their beliefs

Maybe the only person is Kanye West when he tweeted he liked the way Candace Owens thinks & didn't back off! LOL

Shania’s hey-day has been over for at least 10 years.
Otherwise I would say she just ‘Dixie-Chicked’ herself.

She's no Raquel Welch. Dressing like a teenager doesn't make middle aged women younger looking. It's distasteful and age inappropriate.

>> she does “not hold any common moral beliefs with the current President”:

Any common beliefs with the POS that Trump ran against?

The irony is if she said I’m an American and I’ll vote for whomever I want and I will vote Donald Trump she’d be top of the charts. It’s a very scary and dangerous time we live in.
