Carrie Underwood is known for having beautiful features, which she often accentuates with soft glam makeup. However, her makeup in her latest viral Instagram selfies has rubbed a lot of people the wrong way.
The Idol judge recently posted a selfie she took behind the scenes of the singing competition show to promote a new episode, wearing intense, heavy makeup, which made her look “unrecognizable,” according to her fans. Her followers, supporters, and other internet users couldn’t get over how different she looked, with some even roping in the latest plastic surgery rumors and allegations she’s been facing.

Carrie Underwood Posts A Selfie In Heavy Makeup
The "Before He Cheats" singer has been pulling out all sorts of glamorous and elaborate looks for the current season of American Idol, where she's been making headlines as a judge once again.
Her styling and makeup team have been hard at work this season, dressing her in outfits that fit the theme of each episode. For instance, just a week ago, she stepped out in a full-blown Princess Belle ballgown. In addition to her trendy and themed looks, she also tends to wear some soft, elegant glam makeup that's not too intense but highlights her features and complements her outfits.
However, this week, to promote the latest episode of the singing show and voting for the final five contestants, Carrie shared a backstage selfie. While she's not afraid to share a selfie or two now and then on Instagram, this one stuck out, as her makeup was quite intense. She had on tan foundation, dark eyebrows, and heavy eyeliner with thick, black false lashes.
Social Media Users Slam Carrie's Makeup Look
It didn't take long for the mom-of-two's selfie to go viral, not just amongst fans and followers, but also other internet users. It was the way she looked, very different from her usual self, with the intense makeup on that ended up drawing attention from internet users of all kinds across various platforms.
Not only did people leave comments about her looking unrecognizable, but they also started commenting on how she looked so different in the selfie that it could be due to her rumored plastic surgery procedures or cosmetic treatments, which fans and plastic surgeons have been trying to analyze for a while now. Though there are some users who believe the dramatic makeup was likely stage makeup for filming, others think it emphasized the cosmetic differences on her face.
"I would not have even recognized her had the name not been on here," commented an Instagram user.
"She's been MAGA-fied," added another, as one user wrote it looked like she had on "a pound" of makeup and "fake lashes."
One user wrote that her makeup "looks caked on," as another commented, "Please stop with the plastic surgery."
"What happened to Carrie Underwood?" asked a user.
"Go back to your natural beauty," commented another.
