She continued,
“I am a woman in my late 50s, and I don’t need to hide behind the clothes. I can’t even tell you how good it felt to do n*de shooting.”

The singer had gone through a troubled childhood as she would try to flatten her chest to avoid or lessen getting abused by her stepfather Jerry Twain.
“I hid myself, and I would flatten my b**bs. I would wear bras that were too small for me, and I’d wear two, play it down until there was nothing girl about me. Make it easier to go unnoticed.”
She told the outlet about her childhood which made her self-conscious about her body image however she is “comfortable” with her skin now.
Her photo shoot comes days after singer Madonna went topless on Instagram to surprise her fans. She showed off her b**bs, censored with emoticons while keeping her hands up.
