Why Shania Twain Replaced Her Famous Brad Pitt Lyric (& How He Reacted To It)

"That Don't Impress Me Much" is one of Shania Twain's most popular songs. Not only is it super-catchy, but it also features Brad Pitt's name in one of the verses. "OK, so you're Brad Pitt / That don't impress me much," she famously sings. However, in 2022 Twain swapped out Pitt's name in favor of Ryan Reynolds, another Hollywood A-lister. The singer surprised fans while performing at the 2022 People's Choice Awards, where she also received the Music Icon Award. As Twain sang the verse, the camera panned to Reynolds, who seemed very surprised, yet flattered, by the switch. Not going to lie — it would be pretty cool to have your name in a song, so we don't blame Reynolds for his reaction.

But what did Pitt think about having his name axed from the song (even just for a short while)? In an interview with The Movie Dweeb's Daniel Merrifield, Pitt spilled the tea after Merrifield told him to tell Reynolds "how you think he stole your thunder." Pitt replied, "He didn't steal. I think we can share the wealth there." The "Fight Club" actor added, "Ryan's a good egg, too. He deserves some love." Furthermore, Pitt even suggested that Twain change the lyrics again at some point. "I think they ought to pass it on down, and next time she ought to sing it to Austin Butler. Maybe Leo (DiCaprio) in between and then Austin Butler," Pitt added. What a guy!
