Carrie Underwood was allegedly left "furious" after being faced with technical issues and a less thrilling venue at Donald Trump's Inauguration.

The singer, who was hit by technical glitches that forced her to perform an acapella, was allegedly not thrilled about the issue, as well as how she was forced to perform, after initially sparking backlash over the performance and allegedly not “caring” about the hate.

The 41-year-old allegedly felt slighted because past performers at inaugurations for Joe Biden and Barack Obama, like Beyonce and Lady Gaga, have been afforded such luxuries.

“Carrie was dissatisfied with her performance at the event, primarily due to the limited space she was given, which left her feeling cramped and uncomfortable,” the source told the publication.

    Do you live under a rock? She’s possibly the most popular female country singer (after Dolly Parton) and the 2nd most well-known American Idol winner (after Kelly Clarkson).

    I mean, she’s dead to me along with Snoop Dogg after all of this but by no means is she a nobody.

      Ehhhh, American Idol winners are famous for falling off the face of the earth (do you know any other winners offhand besides Carrie and Kelly?), so I don’t blame people for not knowing her from that.

      I think it’s also a stretch to say she’s the most (or second most) popular female country singer. Country as a genre is becoming less and less popular, being replaced by pop/hip-hop/rap for young people. I feel like Carrie Underwood was most popular amongst the subset of elder millennials that still listened to country or who happened to catch her hits on pop radio, but Gen Xers and Boomers are probably more familiar with Reba McIntire, Patsy Cline, Loretta Lynn, etc, and zoomers and Gen alpha are too busy listening to literally any other genre than country to know who any of those people are.
