Just moments before, Carrie Underwood tweeted something that sparked the rumor mill. The country superstar posted a picture of herself with worship artist Brandon Lake after their time on the set of American Idol, leaving thoughts on the internet. Underwood stated, ‘Great to meet @brandonlake last night! Still thinking about last night’s @AmericanIdol while getting ready for tonight’s show!’

The comments? Boy, they were all over the place! Some were hype, some were skeptical, but others just wanted to talk about Jesus. Classic Twitter.
Note the very first comment, Elizabeth, who said, ‘Let’s see who was more star struck Carrie or Brandon.’ That’s a valid question here because Underwood’s a legend, but Lake’s got this worship music energy that just hits different. Followed by Elonment swinging with ‘Psyop angel studios. Manipulated votes’ and then dumped some random links. Like… what?
But there was nothing but love for most of the answers. “Carrie, I honestly can’t believe how incredible your performance was last night. It was absolutely UNBELIEVABLE and a gift from God!” shouted Gary Amers in caps. ”I love when you sing that. I bought one of your cd’s just for that one song. It was like an Angel singing,” said Robin Cope.
Not everyone’s favorites, though. BlindingSight8 took aim with some heavy ordnance: “The show is terrible, devoid of any sincere and constructive criticism. Simon was the heart and soul of American Idol; now you folks are just sitting there, clapping like cheerleaders at the Special Olympics.” Ouch. Someone must have got up on the wrong side of the internet this day.
And then there were the fans calling for a collaboration. Grant Mathis said, ‘I demand a collab.’ Even MrsFish78 piped up to say, ‘Can we PLEASE get a collab???!!!!!’ It’s like chill boys. Let these guys breathe.
Yes, that is so much of those replies which was oriented religious in nature! This would be ‘God Bless both of you. Christ is King! ✝️🙏’ by Y john and ShandraX✝️🇺🇲 saying ‘Thanks a bunch for that beautiful show on Resurrection Day. May God richly bless you!’ & Neathery Elliott went, ‘You were great as always !! Thanks for bringing Jesus into the show !!’
But where had this performance been said? BeccaHarp asked: ‘I missed that and would love to see it in its entirety. Where can I find it??’ An extremely valid question, actually, Becca. Maybe try for Youtube before this goes down.
Underwood definitely left a lasting impression after performing ‘How Great Thou Art.’ Raquel tweeted, “Girl, you made me cry with that rendition of #HowGreatThouArt 😭😭 #AmericanIdol,” while Joe Cody called it “anointed.” According to Roachie, “It was the best show in history.” Wow, amazing praise there.

But the real thing—takeaway? Underwood and Lake brought phenomenal vocals, the internet brought the drama, and American Idol buzzed the talk. Whether you liked it, hated it, or were just down on the floor praising Jesus, last night’s show was dramatic. Now, can we get the collab already?
