It’s a Girl
Shania Twain was brought into the world on August 28th, 1965, as Eilleen Regina Edwards in Windsor, Ontario, Canada. But her birth wasn’t so simple either. When she was born, there was a complication, and the doctors almost pronounced her dead.

As we know, babies are typically born crying, which is a sign of breathing. Shania wasn’t crying, and her skin turned blue. The doctor was so nervous about the situation that he actually gave Shania’s mom a lit cigarette before breaking the bad news. Thankfully, it quickly became evident that the baby girl was alive.
