The single was ranked at the top 2 and became her first top ten hits on Billboard’s all-genre Hot 100. The Queen of Country Pop made headlines with a concert residency The Colosseum at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas. The concert was named Shania: Still the One. In that concert residency, there are times when she enters the stage on horseback!
Meet El Alcazar, the singer-songwriter’s elegant white horse.
In her Still the One: Las Vegas concert in 2014, Shania Twain made a fairy tale come true. The country singer made an unexpected entrance on-stage, riding the back of a beautiful white horse that she named El Alcazar.
Before then, the backup musicians set up the fantasy-like mood along with the stunning forest graphics as Shania Twain prepares for her entrance. As “Still the One” started playing, the unexpected duo casually waltzed in, surprising her thousands of fans in the arena.
Wait until you see the horse do some neat tricks.
Just before the verses started, Shania and her trusty steed proudly showcased their routine.
El Alcazar stopped right at the center and elegantly bowed twice in front of the audience. The horse was well-behaved and did not walk anywhere unless signaled to. When Shania came down from her horse, she would rub her horses’ neck while serenading him with the chorus.
El Alcazar looks like he really loved the treatment that when her owner walks slightly in front, she would also follow suit. The audience couldn’t help but give their loudest applause even though their performance isn’t finished.
This just shows how much Shania Twain loves horses.
Shania Twain has been a fan of horses for a long time. Sometimes you could see horses in her music videos, and even on stage just like her concert residency in Las Vegas. At one point, she paraded up the Las Vegas Strip with a large herd of 40 horses.
Even during the pandemic, she still has horses appearing on each of her recent home video performances. Sometimes, these horses are just there to steal the show from her, but Shania doesn’t mind at all. That’s just how she loves her adorable steeds.
This Las Vegas concert residency is one of Shania’s most successful concerts
Among all the live concerts that Country legend, Shania Twain has done over the course of her career, this by far is one of the most successful. According to Billboard, “Shania Twain scores her highest rank in more than a decade on Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart, as Shania: Still the One: Live From Las Vegas rockets 31-2 in its second chart week.”
Before that, Shania’s 1997 album, which the song Still the One was first featured on, has earned over 15.6 million in album sales, coming second next to Metallica’s 1991 self-titled album.
