Carrie Underwood has addressed recent reports claiming she makes $1 million every week off of ‘Sunday Night Football.’

the voice of the NBC broadcast, and her song “I’ve been waiting all day for Sunday Night” introduces the featured game every weekend.

Of course, she deserves top dollar for her voice, especially as it pulls up the curtains before a primetime clash. But fans were absolutely shocked to find out how much she makes every time NBC plays her song.

Underwood was recently rumored to be making a cool million every week, which would mean $18 million a season.  However, she’s revealed that it’s false and isn’t even close to what she makes, which is actually nothing.

“I wish, that’d be great. That would be awesome,” she told Howard Stern in a recent interview. “It’s pretty pro-bono.” 

Fans Weren’t Sure What To Believe After Carrie Underwood Denied The Reports

Fans weren’t quite sure what to believe following Carrie’s denial.

“Welp, that was pretty quickly squashed haha,” someone laughed.

“She’s lying in this clip. Listen how her voice goes up? Sign of deception,” another user claimed.

“Never a good idea to tell the world you make millions a day. The IRS would love to investigate you,” someone noted.

“NFL doesn’t even pay for Halftime entertainers. Never ever.  It is NFL exposure!” a fan pointed out.

This is just as surprising as the million-dollar rumor. Underwood is A-list and certainly deserves more than a pro-bono deal. But, while she wishes she got a big cheque every week, it appears she’s happy with the current arrangement.

Meanwhile, the New York Giants and Cincinnati Bengals, two struggling teams, will be featured on ‘SNF’ this week.
