The video is for the opening of the CMT Awards. There's an article in Taylor's thread.
I'm sure the announcement will be about the new album!

It was a union of country music superstars as Taylor Swift and Shania Twain recreated a scene from Thelma & Louise for the upcoming CMT Music Awards at Thompson’s Station in Tennessee on Monday (June 6). While Shania channeled her inner Louise (the role first made famous by Susan Sarandon) behind the wheel of a Thunderbird Convertible, Taylor played the role of fumbling sidekick Thelma (Geena Davis). The 2011 CMT Music Awards is set to air on Wednesday (June 8 ) at 8pm EST on CMT Country Music TV. Shania, whose last appearance at the annual Country Music Television bash came seven years ago, will also present an award at the star-studded ceremony. www.fadedyouthblog.com/234675/shania-twain-and-taylor-swift-recreate-thelma-louise-for-cmt-music-awards

I know it's been said a million times, but I just feel the need to point out how amazing she looks for her age. She could still pass for late thirties easily.

im feeling 100% the press conference is about Las Vegas....why else would she have one....Album news wouldn't be at a press conference....I'm Preettyyy dang sure its for Las Vegas. Press conferences are usually held for a big reason, not to announce being a judge, an album info, or about a reality show. The thing that worries me is, does that mean we won't get an album until after her las vegas show :(

Maybe, maybe not. Maybe they are announcing her induction into the Hall of Fame?

She will be doing a 2-year residency in Vegas starting December 1st, 2012. 60 shows a year. The show will be called "Still the One".
Still enough time for an album though. :)

Shocking. Shania Twain just fell hard at the CMT Awards. As she was walking out of the entrance, her right foot seemed to just slip and she went right down. She seemed to handle it ok. She got right back up and presented the Male Video of the Year award. (Male Video Winner was Blake Shelton.) On a positive note: She'll now have something to talk about with fans at CMA Fest. :)

June 8, 2011, 5:00 PM ET Shania Twain on Her Las Vegas Deal, Taylor Swift and the CMTsAfter a long period of dealing with personal and professional problems, country superstar Shania Twain is stepping back into the spotlight. Today she announced that she will start a two-year residency at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas on Dec. 1, 2012. Her reality series on OWN called “Why Not? with Shania Twain” airs its season finale on June 12. And on tonight’s 2011 CMT Music Awards, she’ll kick off the show with Taylor Swift in a segment that pays tribute to the movie “Thelma and Louise.” In recent years, Twain has gone through a divorce with her former producer Robert “Mutt” Lange (who had an affair with Twain’s best friend, Marie-Anne Thiebaud), and earlier this year she married Swiss business executive Frederic Thiebaud (Marie-Anne’s ex-husband). Twain’s show on OWN dealt with her coming to terms with her past, and dealing with vocal problems. Speakeasy talked to Twain a few minutes ago. What made you decide to take up residency in Las Vegas?Shania Twain: It was kind of a long drawn-out process. The idea came about through my manager, Jason Owen. He said “How would you feel about that?” My first reaction was similar to a lot of reactions I’ve had in the last few years, which is “No I can’t do that.” Just sort of an anxious response….I decided I was getting tired of turning things away because I wasn’t feeling good about my voice and it was time to address it. Once I started that rolling, the decision to play at the Colosseum at Cassars began to evolve into a yes. Can you tell me how much this deal is worth?Of course not! I can’t tell you that. There are always various numbers anyways, and there’s no one number to these things. There’s productions numbers and artist numbers. It’s very difficult to pinpoint one number that people would even appreciate. It’s expensive to put on these shows, it’s expensive to get a top artist, and the whole thing is a big costly venture. That I can say. Tonight you’re going to kick off the CMT Music Awards with Taylor Swift in a segment that pays tribute to “Thelma and Louise.” What was that like to work with Taylor?She’s such a sweet person. Just very cool and I enjoyed the whole experience. No pressure. I barely do anything but drive and make a few faces. It was really nice being with her. It made me reflect a lot on how it felt for me when I was at her stage. I think there’s something like 25 years difference between us [Twain is 45 and Swift is 21] so you can imagine how that took me back being with her. It was almost surreal. Did she ask you for any advice?We were focusing on all the difficult lines we had and all the challenging acting! We didn’t get a chance to get to really talk. But we’d both really like to do that. We had some bathroom chat when nobody else was around. That was just girl talk. If she ever needs me, though, I’m there. Speakeasy will be live-blogging the 2011 CMT Music Awards starting at 8 p.m. ET on June 8.Source

She got right back up and presented the Male Video of the Year award. (Male Video Winner was Blake Shelton.) On a positive note: She'll now have something to talk about with fans at CMA Fest. :) That was a rough fall. I felt so bad for her, she had such a shocked expression on her face. Luckily it was when she was entering from the crowd and it was sort of below the audience, so not too many people in the audience saw it, but everyone watching at home did. At least it wasn't on stage though. I'm glad she took it like a champ, laughed it off, and did her part in presenting the award. EDIT: Shania's video response to her fall: www.sayomg.com/omg-shania-twain-responses-to-the-fall/I also find it funny how if you go to Google and type in "Shania Twain" the first 2 suggested searches are related to her fall lol.

Shania Twain falls onstage at CMT AwardsCountry superstar laughs off the tumble as she presented a trophy By Natalie Finn E!online updated 2 hours 14 minutes ago Shania Twain laughs off a fall during the CMT Music Awards on Wednesday, June 8 in Nashville.Don't worry, Shania Twain, you still impress us much. She may a major country superstar, but there's always room for a mortal faux pas, as the Vegas-bound singer proved by falling flat on her cute butt on her way to the stage tonight at the 2011 CMT Music Awards in Nashville. MORE: Five Worst Concert Spills Twain was understandably a little flustered—and probably more than a tad mortified—afterward. Story: Huh? Justin Bieber wins at the CMT AwardsBeing the consummate professional that she is, the Canadian beauty laughed it off (the supportive roar of the crowd probably helped) and went on to present male video of the year award to an absentee Blake Shelton. And, it being a congenial country-music ceremony (there were none of those harsh Hollywood jibes here), Kid Rock did not make one single joke at Twain's expense. You know, because he's a "Cowboy."

The following article is from The Boot:Shania Twain Responds to CMT Music Awards FallPosted Jun 9th 2011 12:00AM by Erin Duvall"I don't need a stunt double," Shania Twain joked a mere minutes after taking a nasty fall on her way to the stage to present Blake Shelton with the 2011 CMT Music Award for Male Video of the Year. Luckily, the singer didn't hurt herself in what she calls "one of life's most embarrassing moments" -- tumbling on live television on what appeared to be a recently waxed floor. Watch below Shania's video response to the accident, which she posted on her Twitter page just after the show. The Boot

I managed to see the fall on youtube and I'm glad she took things in stride and laughed it off.
At first I wasn't really sure how I felt about Shania's Las Vegas deal but after reading her reasons and motivations for doing it, I can definitely respect her decision. Plus, there is plenty of time for her to make an album and promote before her gig starts if she chooses.

Shania's trip edited out of replaysPublished on Thursday 9 June 2011 18:28Shania Twain's stumble during the CMT Music Awards show is being edited out of replays to save her from more embarrassment. The singer slipped and fell on her way to the stage during a live broadcast. The channel cut the trip out of a replay following the show and during another replay on Thursday. John Hamlin, the show's executive producer, said the last thing the channel wanted to do was embarrass anyone, particularly someone as gracious as Twain. While CMT edited out the fall, footage of it aired on cable news channels and was available on the internet. Twain said via her Twitter account that she was not hurt, except for a sore thumb.
