Carrie Underwood: fame is for the adults, let the kids be kids | Music City Minute

Mar 27, 2026, 11:26 AM

Carrie Underwood has opened up about her personal life, specifically whether or not she would encourage her young sons Isaiah and Jacob to audition for a show such as “American Idol.” While Underwood believes both of our sons are naturally talented singers, even pointing out how Isaiah is a mini her in so many ways, she is certainly not eager to become a stage mom. The season four “American Idol” winner admits neither of our sons are ready for the stage. Furthermore, she would only give her blessing to compete on a reality show such as “American Idol” when her boys are older and more established. In the meantime, Carrie Underwood and her husband Mike Fisher are perfectly content with their kids being kids and maintaining a very strict separation between home and work. Sounds like the proud Mama and Papa are doing what they can to raise their boys right.
