AceShowbiz - Carrie Underwood is no longer hiding her face. After a nasty fall that left her with over 40 stitches on her face, the country pop singer shared yet another close-up photo of her face, showing her scars around her lips for the first time.
The 35-year-old singer took the picture while supporting her husband Mike Fisher and his hockey team the Nashville Predators, wearing a white and orange Predators hat and making a pair of fangs with her fingers. The scars are visible on her upper lip and chin.
"Ready to cheer on the boys tonight! Especially that #12! I hear he's alright! @mfisher1212 @predsnhl #LetsGoPreds," she captioned the snap.
Carrie recently detailed the accident that happened in November 2017. She told "The Bobby Bones Show" during a radio chat on April 19, "I was taking out the dogs to go pee-pee one last time. I didn't let go of the leashes. Priorities! So that's why my left hand's fine. I reached to catch myself and I just missed a step... If I had fallen anywhere else, I would've been perfectly fine."
The "American Idol" alum admitted she wasn't sure how long it would take her to heal from the facial injury. "I've been very fortunate in the healing process," she shared. "I was at a point where I didn't know how things were gonna end up. I didn't know what it was gonna heal like... I was worried (my son) might be scared of me." She added, "But now if I put makeup on, he's like, 'Mummy, your boo-boo's all gone!' "
Carrie has been back to work. She released her new track "Cry Pretty" on April 11 and made her first performance onstage since the accident at the 53rd Academy of Country Music Awards on April 15, during which she sang the new song.
