What’s bigger, Carrie Underwood’s voice or her backyard harvest? The answer might surprise you! The voice behind hits like “Jesus, Take the Wheel,” Carrie Underwood stunned fans this week with a hilarious and jaw-dropping Instagram reel. She proudly held up a tomato from her garden that is almost the size of her head! Weighing in at 2.6 pounds, this giant tomato is proof that Carrie’s green thumb is as impressive as her golden pipes. While she didn’t reveal whether it’s destined for salsa, pasta sauce, or a giant BLT, fans couldn’t stop gushing over the homegrown beauty.
Carrie’s love for gardening isn’t new. Over the years, she’s shared photos of her massive melons, bright limes, fresh herbs, and even homegrown loofahs that her family uses in the bath. When she’s not dazzling audiences with her Reflection Vegas residency (which wrapped in spring 2025) or mentoring hopefuls on American Idol, you can find her in her backyard, digging in the dirt and enjoying the simple joys of growing her food.

Her garden updates always feel like a peek into her peaceful, everyday life which is a side of Carrie that fans adore just as much as her superstar stage persona. She proves that she is not only a music icon with every post but also someone who finds joy in life’s smallest (and sometimes biggest!) natural wonders.
Switching from gardening to guitars, Carrie took fans on a completely different journey with her live performance of “Mama, I’m Coming Home” (originally by Ozzy Osbourne) at SiriusXM. The performance is raw, powerful and emotional, showcasing a side of her voice that blends country soul with rock intensity. As she sang, “Mama, I’m coming home,” the depth of emotion in every note was palpable.
