Carrie Underwood sat down with her husband, Nashville Predators center Mike Fisher, and Oprah Winfrey for a great in-depth interview on Oprah’s Next Chapter on OWN, followed by a short but sweet Dateline NBC interview with Hoda Kotb on life since Carrie won American Idol in 2005. Check out video after the jump!

Carrie & Mike invited Oprah Winfrey to their cabin retreat outside of Nashville for their 1st television interview together. Oprah first sat down to talk with Carrie about what that cabin means to her, how she has adjusted to the scrutiny that came with winning American Idol, how she separates her persona as a performer from her regular self, how she is adjusting to married life, and what else she is aiming for in life. Mike joins Carrie & Oprah to talk about marriage, family plans, and the role of religion in his relationship with Carrie. There’s also an adorable segment in which Mike and Carrie take the ice at the Bridgestone Arena! But that’s not all, they also take Oprah to the land where they will one day build their dream home. The interview closes with all of them singing together. It’s a great interview with more than the usual character insight into Carrie.

The MSNBC interview covers Carrie’s growth in confidence since winning Idol but the highlights from the interview involve Carrie singing karaoke (including the Flo Rida song “Low”), Carrie helping hoist Hoda Kotb onto a mechanical bull, and Carrie riding a mechanical bull herself.

    I watched the Oprah interview with Mike and Carrie when it first aired on Sunday. Those two honestly seem like the real deal who basically walk the talk so to speak.  That interview basically gave me a great sense of not only who Carrie is but also who Carrie and Mike are as a couple.  It made me have even more respect for them.  Their home was just gorgeous!

    Carrie has really grown as a person and as a performer over the last seven years.  It’s been really awesome to watch her growth as an artist as the years have gone by.  She has truly come along way.

    I never thought in a million years that Carrie would know the words to “Low” but I guess she truly is the human karaoke machine.  That was just too cute.  Heh

    Thanks wimdmills!  :)

    Carrie has always been the real deal. And she shows just how much her roots are so planted to the ground. What a great upbringing this gal had….
