CARRIE UNDERWOOD MAKES HUGE SUPER BOWL ANNOUNCEMENT

CARRIE UNDERWOOD MAKES HUGE SUPER BOWL ANNOUNCEMENT,
TALKS AMERICAN IDOL REBOOT. Carrie Underwood recently made a huge announcement
about the 2018 Super Bowl, and shes also revealing how she really feels about the return
of American Idol. Carrie, who shot to fame after winning Season
4 of the talent search in 2005, spoke out about the upcoming ABC reboot of the series,
which formally aired on Fox for 15 seasons. I love it when there are things out there
that give people like me a chance, she told Hollywood Life this week while promoting
her Dicks Sporting Goods athleisure line, CALIA by Carrie Underwood.

And even though she probably wont be joining
the judging panel, despite rumors that swirled earlier this year, the country superstar confirmed
that shes definitely going to support the series at its new home. Any shows like that that give an unknown
an opportunity, I think is a really great thing, she said of ABCs plans to bring
the show back to TV. Katy Perry is so far the confirmed judge for
the new version of the series, while Ryan Seacrest has also been officially announced
to return as host. But while the Blown Away singer wont
have a judging position on American Idol, the multiple Grammy winner recently confirmed
that she wont be away from fans screens and ears completely when the show debuts next
year.

Amid the premiere of her new opening sequence
for NBCs Sunday Night Football on September 10, executive producer Fred Gaudelli confirmed
that the superstar already has something very special lined-up for the 2018 Super Bowl. The game will air live around the world from
U.S. Bank Stadium, Minneapolis, Minnesota, on February 4. He confirmed that Carrie has actually filmed
a very special opening segment for the big game that features an unheard original song
she wrote titled The Champion.

I think its going to become a sports
anthem, he teased of the song in an interview with Variety. Its going to be one of those songs that
you see cut to highlights for the next 25 years. Carrie also revealed that the Super Bowl song
has the approval of at least one athlete, her husband and former Nashville Predators
captain Mike Fisher. My husband loved it.

He would listen to it before playoff games,
she explained of The Champion, revealing that Mike actually wanted to play the track
for his teammates in the locker-room but she had to tell him to keep it under lock and
key. He was like I want everyone to hear
it! And I had to tell him, You cant do that. You cant play it in the locker room. Im sorry,' she said.

But that was a good indicator that we were
on the right track. Carries Super Bowl announcement comes amid
much speculation over whether or not shell perform the halftime show during the big game. After Lady Gaga took to the stage for Super
Bowl 2017, a slew of fans tweeted out their support for Underwood to be the next performer
to entertain the millions of football fans tuning in from around the world Carrie has never confirmed nor denied if shes
ever been asked to take on the iconic halftime show, though Terez Owens claimed in 2014 that
she was allegedly in the running to perform during Super Bowl 2015 in Glendale, Arizona. A few inside sources revealed to us that
Underwood most likely will be doing the super bowl halftime show this year, the site
claimed at the time.

However, Carrie announced in September 2014
that she and her husband were expecting their first child, their son, Isaiah, which likely
took the star out of the running. The halftime slot then went to popstar Katy
Perry. Do you think Carrie Underwood should perform
the Super Bowl halftime show this year?.
