Quotable: Carrie Underwood’s preferred method of makeup application? The “bigger is better” pile
Country singer and American Idol winner Carrie Underwood is one of those stars whose red carpet look is often compared to that of Kim Kardashian—in that she tends to practice the art of “more is more” when it comes to makeup. While we’ve often wondered why the presumably fresh-faced singer has a makeup artist who piles it on, it turns out the only one to blame is Underwood herself. When asked about her hair and makeup people, Underwood revealed:
“That’s two people I don’t have [on tour]. When you’re on stage, it’s a little bit different than real life. You can kind of pile it on—and you need to for things to show up. It’s kind of whatever, you can play. You can do things you wouldn’t really do. You can put glitter on your eyes. Big hair. The bigger, the better. It’s fun. It’s a nice relaxing time, a calm before the storm, if you will.”
