Fans React: Is Carrie Underwood’s Looks Overdone Before New Year’s Eve?
As the talented Carrie Underwood gears up to take the stage at Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve alongside Ryan Seacrest in the heart of Times Square, the buzz on social media is palpable. But amidst the excitement, some eagle-eyed fans are raising eyebrows over her evolving appearance.
The 41-year-old country superstar took to Instagram, sharing an electrifying video with her 13.2 million followers, announcing her performance just minutes before the iconic ball drop. However, this announcement sparked a flurry of comments questioning her looks, with accusations of plastic surgery flying in like confetti.
‘Quit the plastic surgery already. Sold soul,’ one particularly harsh critic remarked, showcasing the darker side of fame.
In a nostalgic post, the songstress reflected on her previous New Year’s Eve performances from 2007 and 2015, writing, ‘Looking back on some memories before I bring in 2025 with a live performance right before midnight in Times Square – tune in New Year’s Eve at 8/7c on @ABC!’
‘How much surgery has she had since then?’ questioned one commenter, while another chimed in with, ‘way too much.’
But not all the comments were negative. Carrie’s loyal fans quickly jumped to her defense, one declaring, ‘What does that have to do with any of this? Why even mention that? It’s rude and unnecessary.’
‘She looks amazing! Some people are just naturally beautiful,’ praised another supporter, showing that love and admiration still reign strong among her fanbase.
