Definitely surprised to see her on this show lol! Anyway, this is just a random story, but I used to have a manager at another job back in 2019 that was in his 50's, and an amazing manager. We were talking about music, and he's this heavy metal/classic rock kind of guy, but I somehow managed to mention Carrie Underwood in the conversation. I was surprised when he told me either him or his wife voted for her back in American Idol. He always carried his speaker around and was always listening to the Howard Stern show. Seeing her on there for the first time made me think of him and that job, and I hope her performances there gained the respect of some of those listeners like my old manager.
