Miranda Lambert returned the favor and attended Carrie Underwood’s Las Vegas residency on Wednesday evening (Dec. 6) at Resorts World Theater. She documented her night at Underwood’s REFLECTION: The Las Vegas Residency with a series of photos and videos and shared a heartfelt message complimenting the show.
“Got to see @carrieunderwood in Vegas last night at her Reflection residency,” Lambert began. “This show is so well thought out and it is a perfect reflection of her and what a career she has built. The lights, fire, music, production, sparkles and most importantly that voice.”
“An Icon”
The Texas native then shared an empowering message directly to Underwood. “Carrie, you are an icon in every sense of the word,” she wrote. “We’ve both been on this journey for 20 years and I’m proud of both of us for staying the course and dreamin’ big.”
She closed her note of admiration by writing, “Like you said, cheers to us and I’m proud to be in your corner. Thanks for having me last night. Blown away. Literally. 😘Also y’all, last slide will take you to church! 🙌🙏”
Lambert’s post featured videos of Underwood performing songs such as “Blown Away,” “Before He Cheats,” and “How Great Thou Art.”
Female Artists Supporting One Another
On Thursday morning, Underwood shared a photo with Lambert alongside a sincere caption. “We’ve both been at this thing for a while now…Seen a lot. Done a lot. Sang a lot. Through it all, it’s nice to know you’ve got great people in your corner,” she wrote. “Thanks for coming to the show last night, Miranda! Cheers to Vegas and cheers to us for all we’ve accomplished and to whatever comes next! ❤️”
Fans flocked to the comments sections of the superstar’s various posts to praise the artists for supporting one another.
“Beautiful ladies inspiring women to live their dreams ❤️ I’m grateful that the world has such amazing role models 💪,” one Instagram user wrote, while another shared, “How cool!!! It’s so amazing to see two amazing female artists supporting each other!!! I’m a BIG fan of Miranda and Carrie!!!”
A few artists even got in on the action. Tigirlily Gold shared, “Love to see queens supporting queens!!!!” Jenna Paulette added, “THIS is so beautiful y’all.”
Underwood Attended Lambert’s Residency Earlier This Week
Underwood attended Lambert’s Las Vegas residency on Sunday evening and took fans along for the rida via Instagram stories. While at Bakkt Theater at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino, she complimented Lambert’s Velvet Rodeo The Las Vegas Residency and shared video clips of performances of “Fastest Girl In Town” and “The House That Built Me.”
“Thanks for having us tonight Miranda Lambert! Such a great show,” Underwood later shared.
Closing out the night, she shared a final photo of Lambert’s performance with the caption, “THE Miranda Lambert, people!”
Previously Collaborated Together
Both iconic artists in their own right, Miranda Lambert and Carrie Underwood hit the country music scene around the same time. Lambert’s debut single, “Me and Charlie Talking,” arrived in late 2004, while Underwood began to turn heads in 2005 following her run on season four of American Idol.
Throughout their individual careers, both female powerhouses have faced comparisons and competition, but their friendship has remained unshaken. Despite external pressures, they consistently support each other. They even collaborated on the track “Somethin’ Bad” in 2014.
Fans can catch both artists performing in Las Vegas. Lambert’s Velvet Rodeo The Las Vegas Residency at Bakkt Theater at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino runs through early next year. Meanwhile, Underwood’s REFLECTION: The Las Vegas Residency at Resorts World Theatre will also continue through 2024.
