“I would go to work after hours and everyone was drunk. It was a horrible environment for a kid. But I was very professional and took it very seriously,” she said, adding that Jerry would beat her mother if she didn’t make enough money for the family.
She tried her best to protect and defend herself from the physical and sexual abuse, but Shania got to the point where she had to push her chest down to make it go unnoticed.
“Because, oh my god, it’s horrible — you don’t want to be a girl in my house,” the “Any Man of Mine” singer shared. “You go into society and you’re a girl and you get all the other normal nasty stuff, and it just reinforces it. So you’re like, ‘Oh, I guess being a girl is a bitch. Oh, it’s bad to have boobs.’ I’m ashamed of being a girl.”
