Fans were pleasantly surprised by the return of the former "American Idol" star both in terms of her appearance and vocal performance.

She was literally wearing leather and lace.
She gave zero fucks about the show or the awards. Just the country music.
Piano ballads always win.#CMAawards pic.twitter.com/nzChDecLeu
Seriously tho @carrieunderwood and @codyjohnson are some of the only artists that ACTUALLY sing as perfect as the records sound, if not better. True true talent. #CMA #CMAs #cmaawards

Oh my Carrie Underwood looks way different. Or maybe I just haven't seen her in a while.

Underwood found herself absent from the list of CMA Award nominees for the first time. With no mention of her as a scheduled performer, fans initially speculated that she might be taking a break from the ceremony.
