Country superstar Carrie Underwood performed “America the Beautiful” at the inauguration of President Donald Trump on Monday. But there was a problem.
A new camera angle shows that Carrie Underwood wasn't asked to sing "America the Beautiful" a cappella. She made the call herself.
Underwood was one of many artists slated to perform at Donald Trump’s presidential inauguration following his victory in the 2024 U.S. presidential election last November. Trump and his running mate, former Sen. JD Vance of Ohio, each took their oaths of office during a swearing-in ceremony in Washington, D.C., on Monday, Jan. 20.
Carrie Underwood ‘s decision to sing at the inauguration on Jan. 20 came as a surprise to many of her country music fans. The 41-year-old artist steered clear of politics for most of her career, so the announcement was jarring to some of her followers because of Donald Trump ‘s divisive policies. She felt the backlash immediately.
Country artists including Reba McEntire, Faith Hill, Charley Pride, and many more have performed the national anthem at the Super Bowl.
