Our beloved legend, Shania Twain, became an official icon today at the Billboard Women In Music Awards in New York City.
Nick Jonas presented the country singer with the Icon Award, and took advantage of the situation to get a sweet hug.
A good year for Twain as she reaches 35 million albums sold and five grammy awards, among others, as noted in the video that played before her acceptance. Now 51, the singer also talked about working on her new album.
The legend also expressed her sympathy with Kesha, and her issues with mental health: "I want to thank Kesha for being so open-hearted," said Twain. "This is what songwriting is all about."
"I don't always feel brave, I don't always feel courageous and confident," the singer said. "But on a day like today, celebrating women who have come so far in the industry - we all know the only way to get here is by dreaming, working really, really hard, and being courageous."
As a great closer, the icon also wanted to thank the men who helped her throughout her career.
"I want to say behind every great woman is a great man...but then there's an even greater woman."
