“Who’s that blonde girl,” 🤯 asked a commenter. Photos of Carrie Underwood’s latest look that left users confused.

A surprise appearance at the Titans game had country music fans doing a double take when Carrie Underwood stepped onto the field—but it wasn’t just her presence that sparked debate.

Carrie Underwood, 41, turned heads with a surprise appearance at an NFL game in Tennessee on Sunday, November 3.

The country music icon joined fellow “American Idol” judges Luke Bryan, Lionel Richie, and host Ryan Seacrest at Nissan Stadium, where they attended the game between the New England Patriots and the Tennessee Titans.

The “American Idol” crew embraced the Titans spirit, donning team gear and rallying fans with a spirited “Titan Up!” chant right from the field. The Titans shared a video of the group on social media, and captioned, “@AmericanIdol is in the house with a special surprise! Watch it all unfold in Spring ’25 on ABC!”

The post quickly gained traction, drawing both excitement and a flurry of reactions. While fans were thrilled to see Underwood at the game, some couldn’t help but comment on her appearance.

Critics surfaced, with a few suggesting that she looked unrecognizable and speculating about possible changes to her appearance. One user was quick to point out, “She has done way too much to her face. Do t look the same [sic].”

A second user stated, “Nobody can convince me that’s Carrie Underwood.” One viewer even questioned, “Who’s that blonde girl?” as others speculated it might be a “lookalike.”

Still, loyal fans of the “Before He Cheats” singer were quick to counter the criticism. Praises flooded in, with one fan declaring, “Carrie Underwood = IDOL QUEEN 😍.” Another commented, “Carrie bringing the energy 🔥” while someone else added, “QUEEN CARRIE 👑👏🏼.”

While Underwood’s surprise appearance at the NFL game sparked some mixed reactions, the singer has been open about her journey with her looks, particularly her dental adjustments.

In a past interview with Women’s Health, Underwood shared that her journey with braces began in her teens but didn’t end there. Like many, she admitted to neglecting her retainer, which led to some shifting in her teeth over time.

Determined to address the change, Carrie Underwood eventually revisited the orthodontist as an adult. “I had one tooth that was driving me crazy,” she explained to the magazine, adding, “It’s such a little thing, but it’s only gonna get worse, so let’s fix it now.”

When it comes to self-care, Underwood prioritizes consistency. She’s mindful of what she drinks, and eats, and how she stays active, recognizing these as essential to her overall well-being.
