  Is Shania Twain secretly gay and hiding in the closet?

Shania Twain is celebrating her 61st birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, she is one of the most acclaimed singers of her generation.

Popular singer Shania Twain (Man! I Feel Like a Woman!, That Don't Impress Me Much, You're Still the One, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of herself hidden from view. At 61st birthday, she remains a woman of many facets.

Twain, a cultural icon

Born Eilleen Regina Edwards in Windsor on August 28, 1965, her career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in Canadian history. Twain's not just a great singer, she's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business woman. At this point in her career, there seems to be little Shania hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Shania Twain as she promises more to come. After all, she's only 61.

Happy Birthday, Shania, you're the best!
