Starstruck's Shania Twain's stalker, the disease which took her voice and the famous husband who left her

Fans of singing show Starstruck were thrilled when it was announced that country star Shania Twain would be joining the glitzy line-up on the ITV1 programme's judging panel. The best-selling Canadian singer-songwriter behind hits like 'Man, I Feel Like A Woman' and 'That Don't Impress Me Much' joined the star-studded panel when the show returned for its second series on Saturday night at 8pm on ITV1.

The news that the 57-year-old pop icon would be joining the show was announced in summer 2022 as she replaces Sheridan Smith. Joining judges Queen frontman Adam Lambert, soul singer Beverly Knight and comedian Jason Manford, plus host Olly Murs, Shania has said of being part of the show: "There have been a lot of really great vocalists and there have been some great impersonations as well - there are two sides to the coin in this show. They are taking on the persona of a particular artist so their mannerisms and the way they deliver the character of the artist is part of the performance. I’ve been pleasantly surprised over and over again."
