Country music star Luke Bryan has a new nickname for fellow American Idol judge Carrie Underwood: “country music jukebox.” In a recent interview, the 48-year-old Bryan praised Underwood’s encyclopedic knowledge of country music.
“I kinda pride myself on being a jukebox,” Bryan admitted, “but she is literally a country music jukebox.” He went on to explain that no matter what song he starts singing, whether it’s from the ’70s, ’80s, ’90s, or current, the 42-year-old Underwood can jump right in.
Underwood, who won American Idol in 2005, joined the judging panel this year alongside Bryan and Lionel Richie, replacing Katy Perry. Perry has expressed her support for Underwood, noting that Underwood “was born on that show” and understands what the contestants are going through.
American Idol airs Sundays at 8 p.m. ET on ABC.
