      I loved Carrie Underwood early in her career but after all of her plastic surgery and performing at the felon's inauguration, I am good. Love Lionel and Luke though! I miss Katy Perry on Idol. I stopped watching it years ago but used to catch an episode here and there. NO MORE!

      I stopped watching American Idol when Carrie won. It felt set up for her to win. I did watch when Mariah was on it. But to have MAGA Carrie 😝as a judge is definitely a hard pass for me. Since MAGA hypocrites who don't like celebs but puts one in the WH, don't like Disney or the Kennedy Center but seeks to take over, they can have American Idol.

      As long as Underwood remain a judge, this also apply to when Perry was on the table as a judge, American Idol will never be on my TV. Just as Perry who have ruined it, Underwood will continue to ruin the show for me.

      Ever since Carrie Underwood turn MAGA I don’t support anything she’s in she can have her opinions but she will not have my money.

      Carrie Underwood is a Trump supporter. She thinks it’s funny to joke about healthcare that people desperately need. Will never be willing to watch anything with her again.

      Everyone here hyperpolarized and hating each other should be given baseball bats with nails driven through them and put in football sized arenas to "discuss" their hatred. Use that energy constructively instead of yammering in a comment thread.

      Actually I think Carrie Underwood is a great entertainer, and a great human being , the fact that she was granted the opportunity the preform at inauguration, is a honor That is Not negative by any means, a True American!

      People still watch American Idol? Wow!
      Anyway to stop the gossip rags from making up controversy tell the audience why certain host are not at the table. Anyone with a half a brain knew it was because there was not enough room. Da!

      Carrie Underwood is a disgrace to this country I agree with Joy libras ♎️ have to stick together ♎️🙏💕⚖️🕊️ since she voted for Donald Trump. And sang at his inauguration. I don’t have the same respect for her like I did before. Carrie Underwood.

      Hard no for me too about carrie! She probably freezes when she sees her winning on that show it looks so much better without all the plastic surgery and tightening and cutting and snipping and fake hair and dark hair and blonde hair and bleach hair and die and collagen injections and fake teeth you could really see that she was truly more shinier when she won, if she really did win because I really think Simon rigged that show for her in 2005 the other contestant was way more talented more likeable more genuine so on and so forth and naturally beautifully gorgeous
