Shania Twain is likely feeling more like a Barbie than a 'Woman!' these days after Mattel created a Twain-inspired Barbie.

In celebration of International Women's Day, which falls on March 8, 2024, Mattel released a brand new collection of Barbie Role Models of women from various parts of the world known for achievements in arts, sciences, sports and so much more.

Mattel announced a new lineup of Barbie Role Model dolls and Canada's very own Shania Twain was selected to be part of this year's collection.

"Barbie is committed to shining a light on empowering role models in an effort to inspire more girls. As a part of The Barbie Dream Gap Project, we’re introducing girls to remarkable women’s stories to show them you can be anything," Mattel wrote on its website.

Not only has the Queen of Country finally received her own Barbie, the doll is decked out in an iconic Shania Twain outfit. Upon first glance, you just might think Twain is sporting a black coat and top hot ensemble when in reality, Barbie's choice in style goes far deeper than that.

Twain is wearing none other than the signature "Man…I Feel Like A Woman!" music video outfit, which Twain first wore back in 1997 when the song first dropped.

The Mattel team got every detail down from the netted veil, pink hair and black lace choker necklace. Twain was head over heels excited for the release, calling it a dream come true.

"I am honoured to be recognized as a Barbie role model - I have my own one-of-a-kind Barbie doll!! Pinch me!! All I’ve wanted to do my whole life is tell stories of empowerment, independence and self-expression through my songwriting, getting to do that and inspire women and girls along the way is the dream," Twain wrote on Instagram.

The 2024 collection also includes new Barbies inspired by Viola Davis (USA), Helen Mirren (UK), Kylie Minogue (Australia), Lila Avilés (Mexico), Maira Gomez (Brazil), Nicole Fujita (Japan) and Enissa Amani (Germany).
