Carrie Underwood has revealed whether or not she gives up her ultra-healthy lifestyle over Thanksgiving. The “Southbound” singer might come with some of the best legs in music, but it looks like even this muscle machine is happy to gear-down over the holiday period.
Carrie recently dished how Thanksgiving pans out for her, and food definitely seemed to rank highly for the 36-year-old.
“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 I think it’s just about we eat. I eat a lot every year on Thanksgiving,” the singer admitted.
Carrie’s lucked out in terms of getting more bang for her buck, food-wise. The mother of two added that her Thanksgiving deal is a double one each year on account of husband Mike Fisher‘s family.
“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,” the star added.
We all might have the little things we’re thankful for, but Carrie’s list this year might just trump yours.
“My list of things I’m thankful for is too vast,” Carrie revealed earlier this year.
“First and foremost, my family. We had a baby earlier this year, which is crazy to think about all of the things that we’ve done and thinking about starting off this year pregnant and having a baby and all of the places that he’s already seen. I’m thankful for health and we’ve had safety along all of our travels.”
Yup, some list.
Carrie’s rock-hard body is a major talking point for just about anyone who sees those killer pins. The American Idol winner has also spent most of this year turning heads for her post-baby body.
Carrie is a workout queen, with an Instagram account that offers semi-regular hints at just how the famous blonde stays in tip-top shape.
Fans have seen Carrie rope-training, running up steps during morning workouts, and generally pushing herself to the extremes during those sweat sessions.
Fitness lines aren’t just for Khloe Kardashian. Carrie is CEO of her own Calia by Carrie range, and it’s wildly popular.
The brand held an event in The Hamptons earlier this year, offering Carrie the chance to speak about her own fitness philosophies.
“I try to make the most of my time. I have changed my focus,” Carrie said.
“Instead of just trying to get those external results that I wanted, my goals have changed. I want to be stronger, I want to live longer; those are the things that I want now other than just, ‘I want to fit into that,'” she added.
Carrie may be spending Thanksgiving chilling with her nearest and dearest, but this power figure’s career is anything but low-key these days. Just recently, Carrie walked away with two AMA Awards, although the wins were hardly surprising.
Carrie’s “Cry Pretty 360” tour has been a sell-out this year, her album sales are through the roof, and she’s just dropped the music video for her latest track “Drinking Alone.”
It’s safe to say that Carrie won’t be alone this Thanksgiving, though.
