As Carrie Underwood gets ready to kick off the 2023 leg of her "Denim and Rhinestones Tour" on Thursday (2/2) in Miami, she told us how much she enjoyed her holiday break and Christmas 2022 with her husband and young sons, Isaiah and Jacob.
Carrie explains that now at Christmastime, her youngest gets what it's all about. "I feel like this year was kind of the first year that Jake understood Christmas and all its magic," she said. "He was three around Christmas; he just turned four in January, and it's just a lot of fun to have two kids that are kind of in the thick of just believing in Christmas magic." She added, "We did a lot of traveling with family, and we got to spend some time up in Canada, and they got to play in the snow, and it's a lot of fun. It's fun right now in our world with our boys."
On her Instagram, Underwood posted a video clip showing one of her show gadgets (called an orb) that flies her through the air while she sings her "Crazy Angels" song in her concerts. She captioned the post, "Leg two of the #DenimAndRhinestonesTour is ready for lift-off… First stop: FLORIDA! *sun (emoji) MIA (arrow emoji)TPA (arrow emoji) JAX carrieunderwoodofficial.com/tour."
Fans were excited about the post, with many commenting. One fan said, "Cannot wait to see you in Atlanta! My kids love you, and this will be their first concert!" Another fan observed of her tour toy, "The Molecule Orb deal looks like a 3-dimensional cross to me... Definitely inspirational to watch you perform in it." One more fan gushed, "My daughter is so excited to see you in Nashville. You are her idol. She loves to sing your songs. We got her tickets for her 15th birthday. She just can't wait."
In 2003 Shania Twain played the Halftime show at the Super Bowl, and since then, country music has not been part of the Super Bowl halftime show. While many country stars, including Carrie Underwood, Faith Hill, Eric Church, and Luke Bryan, have performed the National Anthem at the Super Bowl, the Halftime show has excluded country stars for the most part.
So here's a look at the country superstars that would be amazing at Halftime in the future.
10 - Jason Aldean

9 - Luke Bryan
Frazer Harrison/Getty ImagesLuke is a standout act that keeps his soldout crowds on their feet and even dazzles his capacity Las Vegas crowd. Thanks to his role on 'American Idol,' he's a household name to even non-country fans.
8 - Blake Shelton
Christopher Polk/Getty ImagesOne of country music's biggest stars and personalities, Blake would be great at the Super Bowl halftime show, especially with his special guest wife, Gwen Stefani, taking the stage with her man. And like Luke Bryan, thanks to being a judge on a music competition show, all of America knows who Blake is.
7 - Kenny Chesney

6 - Carrie Underwood

5 - Keith Urban

4 - Luke Combs
Jason Kempin/Getty ImagesJust a handful of years into his massive career, Luke is already playing stadiums all over the country, and his show can get wild and rowdy with the party country atmosphere.
3 - Morgan Wallen

2 - Taylor Swift
Kevin Winter/Getty ImagesShe's a pop star now, but she started in Nashville as a country music superstar. Surprisingly, she has not done a halftime Super Bowl show yet. She has the fanbase, for sure. If only Ticketmaster could handle it.
1 - Garth Brooks
John Medina/Getty ImagesHe says he is done playing stadiums after his recent three-year stadium tour, but with his high-energy show and legendary status, it's shocking that Garth has not done Halftime yet.
