Carrie Underwood Makes Rare Showing of Flesh in ‘Cry Pretty’ Video (See!)

Keith Girard
Carrie Underwood beats herself up, figuratively at least, in a new video for “Cry Pretty,” her ballad about the emotional ups and downs of a country musicians life. It’s her first since her accidental fall that left her with a broken wrist and nearly 50 stitches in her face. It could be called a comeback of sorts. Carrie has been keeping a low profile since her accident. Last night, though, she returned to her roots to release the video on the latest episode of “American Idol.”...

On her new show, she plays opposite Connie Britton, the seasoned country star that Hayden’s character is gunning to replace. ...
