Miranda Lambert Reciprocates, Checks Out Carrie Underwood’s Show

Author Nancy Brooks // Country Writer, Beasley Media Group

Miranda Lambert has now checked out friend Carrie Underwood’s Las Vegas show, much like Carrie did when she caught Miranda’s Vegas show last weekend.

Underwood posted a photo of the two country queens together backstage before her “Reflections” show at Resorts World’s theater. She captioned the black and white photo of the ladies dressed casually, “We’ve both been at this thing for a while now…Seen a lot. Done a lot. Sang a lot. Through it all, it’s nice to know you’ve got great people in your corner!”

She added, “Thanks for coming to the show last night, Miranda! Cheers to Vegas and cheers to us for all we’ve accomplished and to whatever comes next!”

Carrie had the chance to see Miranda’s show at Planet Hollywood last weekend. She posted to her Insta Stories about her fellow country superstar.

Underwood posted a series of photo slides. The first photo is of her and Lambert backstage, arm in arm. She wrote over the image, “Just a couple country girls hanging out in Vegas.”

The second slide shows Miranda on stage performing, and it appears Carrie is on the second or third row; she captioned the picture, “Thanks for having us @mirandalambert! Such a great show!”

In the third slide, she shows Lambert on stage with blue lighting, and she must be singing a sad song; Carrie writes, “I’m not crying, you’re crying.” The fourth and final slide again shows Miranda on stage singing, and Underwood writes, “THE @mirandalambert, people!”

Lambert announced the final dates on her “Miranda Lambert: Velvet Rodeo The Las Vegas Residency” at Bakkt Theater at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino. The final nine shows will take place in March and April of 2024.

The final nine performances going on sale include:

    Carrie is one of the biggest stars to win American Idol next to Kelly Clarkson. Underwood was 22 years old when she won the competition and later shared her diary entry from the night she won. She wrote in part, “Big moment. I took one more look at the amazing crowd and let it sink in for a few seconds. Ryan (Seacrest) said something like ‘And your 2005 American Idol is…’ My heart beat fast, and I closed my eyes. CARRIE UNDERWOOD!!!”
