Carrie Underwood is experiencing a heartfelt full-circle moment as she returns to American Idol—the very show that launched her career 20 years ago. But this time, the emotions aren’t just about nostalgia.
In a new trailer for the upcoming season, the country superstar is seen wiping away tears during an emotional audition. As filming continues, Underwood, alongside fellow judges Luke Bryan and Lionel Richie, has been meeting hopeful contestants and handing out Golden Tickets.
The teaser gives fans a sneak peek at some of the talented singers set to compete, but one moment in particular stands out. In the clip, Underwood is visibly emotional as she listens to a contestant share a deeply personal story about their child.
“Even though this was about your son, every single person can fill in that memory,” Underwood says, her voice trembling.
While the full details of the contestant’s story remain unknown, the moment clearly struck a chord with Underwood, who is a mother of two sons with husband Mike Fisher. The raw emotion on her face shows just how much the journey of these aspiring artists—and their personal struggles—resonates with her.
With American Idol set to return soon, this sneak peek promises a season filled with powerful performances, unforgettable moments, and heartfelt connections.
