Question on an example

Vous pensez qu'elle chante bien.You think (that) she sings well.Can I understand why bien above is not feminine. I thought it would be given that both the girl singing and the word song in french are female?

This question relates to:French lesson "Penser que/Croire que = To think that/To believe that in French"

bien is an adverb and doesn't change with gender.

bon, bonne, bons, bonnes -- good (the adjective, which changes accordingly)
bien -- well (the adverb, which is immutable)

Elle chante bien. -- She sings well.
Elle est bonne chanteuse. -- She is a good singer.
