Carrie Underwood shared a 30-year-old photo to mark a full circle transformation.
Underwood set a TikTok on Friday (October 31) to “Little Girl Don’t Grow Up Too Fast,” a heartfelt song she released as a bonus track to her Storyteller record in 2015. That album also included “Church Bells,” “Smoke Break” and more. The first photo Underwood shared in her TikTok is “from 1995(ish),” she said. She would’ve been about 12 years old at the time. Underwood stood in front of a Grand Ole Opry microphone at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum in Nashville, Tennessee.
“From 1995(ish) at the Country Music Hall Of Fame and Museum… to 2025 at the Grand Ole Opry! 👧🏼🙋🏼♀️🎤”
Now an eight-time Grammy winner, Underwood, 42, shared a recent photo of herself standing in front of a Grand Ole Opry microphone. This time, it’s decorated for the Opry’s 100th anniversary, which has been celebrated throughout 2025. The legendary Opry, hailed the show that made country music famous, made its historic debut on November 28, 1925. Underwood received her surprise invitation to become a member of the Grand Ole Opry from Randy Travis. Fellow Oklahoma-born country star Garth Brooks inducted Underwood into the Opry in 2008.
