“She looks different…but always fit,” wrote one user.

The musician famously suffered a freak injury back in November 2017.

“On Friday, Carrie Underwood took a hard fall on some steps outside her home,” her representative wrote in a statement provided to Today on Sunday, November 12, 2017.

“While there were no life-threatening injuries, she was taken to the hospital to be treated.”

“She sustained multiple injuries including a broken wrist and some cuts and abrasions from the fall.”

“Her husband, Mike Fisher, was able to make it back into town that night to be with her and she was released from the hospital.”

“Her recovery will take some time and she appreciates all prayers and well wishes,” her representative added.

Carrie opened up about her injuries in a May 2018 interview with People.

“It’s crazy how a freak random accident can change your life,” she said.

“In addition to breaking my wrist, I somehow managed to injure my face as well.”

“I’ll spare you the gruesome details, but when I came out of surgery the night of my fall, the doctor told Mike that he had put between 40 and 50 stitches in.”

Carrie confessed that she didn’t look the same and was not sure she would ever look like her old self again.

SURGERY SPECULATION

In June, Carrie attended the Songwriters Hall of Fame 2024 Induction and Awards Gala.

She hit the red carpet at the event in a stunning silver mini-dress that showed off her toned figure.

Carrie had her blond hair styled in a middle part and loose waves and wore a full face of glam makeup.

Some fans felt her face looked dramatically different than it had in the past and asked if she had any procedures done.

“Carrie just went to far . She is unrecognizable. Pretty but something seems odd,” one person critiqued.

“She has hair ruined everything that was beautiful about her.
She’s just a mess…,” a second bashed.

“She’s a great singer but her outfit is hideous! And stop with the plastic surgery,” wrote a third.

“She looks very different,” a fourth person pointed out.

Many supporters defended her, with one writing, “Who cares if she’s had work done? She looks beautiful. She can do whatever she wants to herself. People are so judgmental and annoying.”
