Carrie Underwood's fans are accustomed to seeing her in full glam, whether she's on stage for her Las Vegas residency or sitting behind the judge's table on American Idol. But the country music star just shared a selfie from her own Idol watch party, and fans can't stop commenting on her natural look.
Fans who follow the "Before He Cheats" singer on social media know that when Carrie is not on stage, she's probably digging in her garden, tending to her chickens, or baking in her kitchen. For the latest episode of American Idol, she treated herself to a glass of wine and a loaf of sourdough bread (homemade, we assume!).
Carrie smiles into the camera in the fresh-faced selfie. She captioned the post, "Fresh boule and a glass of vino. Ready for the next episode of @americanidol tonight! #CUonIDOL"
Fans ran to the comments section to comment on Carrie's photo:
- "I think natural Carey [sic] is my favorite 🤍🤍"
- "Whoa! I had to do a double-take. Yes, she’s a natural beauty."
- "Carrie you look so naturally beautiful!"
- "You are such a beautiful lady inside and out! ❤️ 🍞"
- "You are so pretty Carrie even without much makeup"
- "So fresh faced and glowing , love the simple look beauteous!"
We have to agree—while we love seeing Carrie in head-to-toe sequins, we love to see this casual side too! (Plus, we need that bread recipe!) After a short break, she'll be heading back to Las Vegas on April 2 for the final shows of her residency.
