Shania Twain Explains Why Brad Pitt is Mentioned in ‘That Don’t Impress Me Much’

Shania Twain has finally opened up about why she mentions Brad Pitt in her 1997 hit song “That Don’t Impress Me Much.” The singer explained the story in an interview.

“You want to know the truth about this story? I’ve never told this before. I’m going to say it now. I remember I had a girlfriend visiting me and it was near Christmas and we were baking cookies. I was writing this album and there was a scandal of [Pitt] and Gwyneth [Paltrow] where there was naked photos of him ‘Playgirl’ magazine, which Pitt later successfully sued for publishing the paparazzi photos].

“And this was like all the rage. I just thought ‘I don’t know what all the fuss is about,'” she continued. “I’m like, ‘Well that don’t impress me much. I mean what is all the fuss. We see people naked every day.’ That’s really what I thought. I wasn’t picking on Brad Pitt. But that was just the association in that moment and things we make fusses about and whatever. Of course, it could have been any gorgeous guy.”
