Miranda Lambert on Carrie Underwood Supporting Her Vegas Residency Miranda Lambert spoke to ET about her Velvet Rodeo event, which will run until April 2024, and the support she’s been getting from Carrie Underwood.

“I don’t think Carrie and I have seen each other’s shows maybe ever,” Lambert said. “Which is insane to even say because her and I started at the same time.”

Lambert said she and Underwood have had “very parallel careers and paths” in country music. “She’s from a small town in Oklahoma; I’m from a small town in Texas. She started on Idol, I was on National Star, and I think she was like, a year behind me, but we were the same age, and we were, you know, on the same label for a decade,” Lambert explained.

Lambert praised Underwood as “one of the hardest working women in the business” and expressed her respect for the way “she’s done everything, and she’s done it with such grace.”
