Carrie Underwood: Being Grateful
As we get into Thanksgiving, Carrie Underwood tells us she has a lot to be grateful for this year, and it all starts at home.
Carrie told us, “I am grateful for so many things this Thanksgiving. I think the thing I’m most grateful for, though, is family. I mean, that’s what it’s all about, and that’s what this life is all about. I’m blessed to have two incredible boys that I get to take care of and that love on me daily, and they’re just giant blessings in my life, and, of course, my extended family, as well. That’s what this time of year’s all about – getting together and just realizing how blessed we all are.”
The country superstar also shared with us her Thanksgiving traditions… or lack of them. She said, “We don’t have too many set-in-stone Thanksgiving traditions. I find myself a lot of times working on or around Thanksgiving or unable to get home or whatever. We try to be together, but sometimes that just doesn’t work out. But yeah, I mean, I think it’s just about what we eat.”
She added, “I eat a lot every year on Thanksgiving. [laughs] I never skip that tradition. But yeah, that’s the gist of it, and I’m kind of lucky. I get two Thanksgivings, because I also get to celebrate Canadian Thanksgiving with my husband’s family, so if I don’t hit one, I’ll definitely be able to get the other one.”

Underwood will showcase her career in a concert special coming exclusively to Hulu in January. Carrie Underwood: Reflection will give audiences a front-row seat to her Vegas show.
Carrie’s show had a three-year plus run at Resorts World Theatre at Resorts World Las Vegas. Underwood recently announced that she will conclude her reign as the venue’s first and longest-running headliner on April 12, 2025.
The show captures a “one-of-a-kind production” conceived by the superstar specifically for Las Vegas to celebrate highlights of her career. The show features her greatest hits from nearly 20 years as a recording and touring artist, including 14 Number One hits and songs from eight of her studio albums.
Carrie told us of her Vegas show, “Reflection is just kind of all about we want to do our hits. We want to reflect upon all the things that we’ve been so blessed to be able to accomplish over the past few years and that I’ve been lucky enough to do this. Then, when you think about a staging standpoint, Reflection is what you can do a lot with visually.”
She added, “It just seemed like a great concept as far as what we could do with it on stage and also having that kind of personal reflection, being able to look back on all of the things that we’ve been able to do.”
