Shania Twain is taking us on a walk down memory lane in regards to who inspired her hit song "That Don't Impress Me Much."

The song is off the album Come On Over -- released in 1997.

Let's travel back to the year 1997 for a moment, shall we?

Enters Brad Pitt.

Yes, there's actually a reason Twain name-dropped the actor in the song.

In 1997, Pitt was involved in a naked photo scandal with then-girlfriend Gwyneth Paltrow. The photos were taken without the actor's permission and were later published in Playgirl magazine.

During a recent interview with Billboard, Twain was asked why she chose to mention Pitt rather than another actor. The country music star recalled hearing of the scandal and telling a friend, "That don't impress me much."

Twain went on to explain that we see naked people all the time and she didn't understand what all the fuss was about.
