CARRIE Underwood has rocked a denim look from head to toe as she performed on Good Morning America on Friday.
The country singer performed in Central Park just one day after she was announced as the new American Idol judge, and fans are gawking over her performance and outfit.
Carrie , 41, wore small denim shorts with a bejeweled belt and matching denim cowboy boots.
She added a white shirt and a sequin jacket with flowers on it on top.
Her blonde hair was down and curly, and she had on a bunch of rings and dangly earrings.
The singer performed My Last Name, Before He Cheats, and Out of That Truck.
She also gave away a pair of tickets for her Las Vegas Residency show, Reflection, to a fan in the crowd.
Fans think the country singer looked and sounded amazing.
“Oooooo I just came into my living room & caught @carrieunderwood on @GMA. Woohoooooo She is such a great entertainer & her vocals can’t be beat. Thanks for making my day GMA!” one fan said.
“Can we take a second to appreciate this outfit?” one fan asked, posting a picture of her to their X account.
“What a beauty,” a fan replied.
“@carrieunderwood looking and sounding amazing on @GMA today,” said another.
“Carrie does not look 41,” said another.
“Amazing performance and interview. Watched and danced along,” wrote one fan.

Before performing her last song, Out of That Truck, Carrie talked with Lara, 55, and Sam, 62, about joining American Idol as a judge.

Carrie won the competition show on Season 4 against Bo Bice and is the first Idol alum to be a judge.
Lara asked her what it felt like to go back to American Idol after 20 years.
“It feels like home,” she said.
“There’s so many people that still work on the show that were there when I was a contestant.”
She said being on both sides of the coin will help her with insight and help for the next season’s contestants.
Carrie said that she can’t lie, so she said she will be an honest judge, but also hopefully, constructive and encouraging.
Carrie is replacing Katy Perry , who decided to leave the singing show after seven seasons to focus on her new album and touring.
The announcement was made on GMA live and American Idol’s Instagram page on Thursday.
“I went from no one knowing my name to tens of millions of people watching ,e,” Carrie said in a voiceover.
“I was proud of everything I’ve accomplished on the show, and I’m proud of everything I have accomplished so far.”
As Carrie talked, throwback videos of her on her farm in Oklahoma and American Idol played on the screen, including host Ryan Seacrest announcing her as the winner.
Katy told Jimmy Kimmel in February that she would not be returning for Season 8.
Carrie has the gift of a great voice that's about as real as it can get! Many years ago, I saw a competition where she was pitted against Miranda Lambert in Nashville. Those two just kept getting better and better! I remember thinking just let them have it as a tie! But the competition took Miranda out. Both those women are excellent! You never really see Carrie play guitar like you do Miranda. Plus, they look like they could be sisters! I think they're both awesome women!
