Carrie Underwood addresses Nikki Glaser feud rumours following 'American Idol' criticism

Carrie Underwood assures everyone there are no issues between her and Nikki Glaser.

Recently, chatter began after the comedian joined "American Idol" as a guest judge, leading fans to believe there was some friction between Underwood and Glaser.

A viewer posted on Facebook, “It’s so noticeable. Especially from Carrie. We see two different sides of women here. Carrie, undeniably talented, but since her time on American Idol, I've always sensed a chilly demeanor,” according to the Daily Mail, and another tweeted: “The awkwardness between Carrie and Nikki is too much lol.”

Carrie Underwood spoke out about rumors of a conflict with Nikki Glaser after the comedian's appearance on “American Idol” in April.

Glaser stepped in as a guest judge on the show's first-ever Taylor Swift-themed evening on April 27.

Fans speculated that Underwood was unhappy sitting next to Glaser, an avid Swift fan, thinking Underwood frowned whenever Glaser spoke.

The 43-year-old country star debunked these rumors earlier this week on Sirius XM’s “Highway Mornings with Cody Alan”, clarifying that there was no issue with Glaser, who is 41.

Alan commented on fans' reactions, suggesting some people enjoy sparking drama.

“I’m like, ‘Do you really think Carrie Underwood would do that?’ She’s not someone who would act mean,” he stated. “They want to start a fight over the tiniest thing.”

The “Before He Cheats” singer remarked that she’s “used to it” and praised Glaser.

“I think she did amazingly well because joining that table and trying to come up with helpful feedback isn’t easy,” she mentioned. “I thought she handled it beautifully. There’s definitely no animosity from me.”

Underwood has learned to embrace criticism as a judge on the show.

She responded to being booed by the “American Idol” crowd during an episode last March.

“Go ahead and boo. I’m unfazed,” the country star posted on X as the show aired.
