  1. Wait what? A musician who sang the national anthem is now a concern? I don’t believe it’s contestants at all or even behind the scenes people. It’s either Lionel Richie or a producer. Stop making drama where there isn’t any or if there is actual drama they can get over it..

  2. Here we go again. If your opinion is different than theirs, they want to ban you. The party of inclusion and diversity, won’t allow anyone different than them. Very close minded

  3. Donald Trump won the election in a LANDSLIDE. Carrie Underwood sang at his Inauguration. And these losers are worried that their show will take a hit because she is there. Maybe they should be concerned that all those that elected him in the LANDSLIDE will tune American Idol out because you are a bunch of knotheaded liberals.

  4. Get over yourself American Idol, Carrie Underwood is a great patriot🇺🇸🇺🇸If she quits this show, goodbye American Idol. The DEI show is over! Go Carrie🇺🇸🇺🇸

  5. Democrats are the party of division!
    Thankfully, the last election prove that you are the minority!!!

    Why don’t you change the show instead of American Idol lets call it Libtard idol!

  6. Really?! Over nonsense. Listen if the left can’t get over themselves and there disagreement with others then that’s on them. No one should put their lives on hold just because it will offend another. Jesus offended a lot of people just read the Bible mainly those who were religious. I hope Carrie tells them to zip it and get on it with. People need to learn to agree to disagree. The spirit of offense is running crazy among the left. 🤦🏻‍♀️

  7. That mentality is why we will NEVER truly unite!! 🤦🏻‍♀️ He doesn’t have to support Trump. Also, Carrie has every right to support him like the rest of us 80+ million Americans!!! Now would be a good time to acknowledge that it’s okay to agree to disagree and remember that the majority has spoken loud and clear. Also, her career will soar now!!

  8. If I was her I’d resign. It’s not worth it. What a shame. It’s ok to be a flaming progressive liberal Democrat who follows all the weird crap that goes on but woe be to a person who dares to be a patriotic down to earth common sense conservative. I’d tell them to take their job and shove it.

  9. American Idol needs Carrie Underwood more than she needs them. If I were she, I would tell AI to pound sand ! In this whole made up crisis AI doesn’t seem to care about over 50% of the Country’s citizens. Seems awful nearsighted.

  10. I couldn’t care in the least if a show like that went belly up. But I must give a big kudos to Carrie for pulling off that song without music to back her up, in fact, it was awesome!

  11. This is why DEI needs to be abolished and exposed for what it is. Judging should be based on talent not their sad sack of a life!

  12. More Patriots tuned in. They can give her a hard time and cancel her, they will then be cancelled. Do they want their show to succeed or fail??
    If she sang for Biden they would be all in. Lionel needs a come to Jesus meeting! Liked him, there s a long list of performers that have drawn a line in the sand. They are out of my vocabulary and Will I not give them a dime of my money. Stop the BS, we are one nation, under God, with liberty and justice for all.

  13. So the racist pig Richie is going to tell we the people who we can support in order to watch his sorry ass judge the “diverse” contestants? Seriously you commie po💩 and we the people should boycott lame ass show to show support of our republic. These f’n libTARDS are out of control it’s time to push back and tell them to F off for a change.

  14. What HYPOCRITES!!! Their values are for Inclusivity and Diversity!! By turning their backs on Carrie Underwood proves they do Not adhere to their precious values. Do they Not understand what those words mean? inclusivity ~means included no matter who they are !!! Diversity ~ different opinions, ethnicity, social backgrounds. Democrats are possibly the worst people in the world.

    I will NEVER watch American Idol ever again. If anyone is going to boycott it should be all of us, they can take their show and shove it.

  15. Change the name from American Idol to American Communist. I don’t recall any concerns over all the extreme left liberals that have less in common with the American public than a conservative. God Bless Carrie Underwood. I hope people boycott because of Ritchie. I will not be watching. More Carrie less Lionel. He’s a has been anyway.

  16. Isn’t this what they EXPECT Americans citizens to do?? Be inclusive, be kind, don’t “judge” people and yet, here’s “American Idol” whining over an American Idol winner from the past singing “America the Beautiful” at (of all things) a Presidential Inauguration?!?! Do the judges ask “who did you vote for in the election”? NO!!

    These people still need safe rooms and fidget spinners. Should the people at Scott Paper Products ban her for using Charmin?!? Get a life! If American Idol can’t handle this, they need to shut down for not being “inclusive”.

  17. I loved AI up until it temporarily ended. One of my favorites. I never watched the reboot mainly because of Katie Perry. Just had a gut feeling about her. She just made me cringe. Carrie should not be demonized for her political stance. The mere fact that she sang acapella in the Capitol proves she is a consummate professional. And how do Luke Bryan and Ryan Seacrest feel?? This is what ruins shows. The wokeness ruined DWTS and Bachelor for me also. Lionel is so ignorant He needs to step down if he can’t handle this. I hope he does. Sick of this crap!! It’s gotta stop. Lost all respect for Richie. 💩

  18. How asinine! I’m sure the judges won’t discuss politics or religion. She is also a Christian, will they criticize her for that?
    These snowflakes all need to grow the hell up & stop crying about your feelings!
    Get over your damned self.
    Get over your TDS, he is the President so suck it up buttercup & deal with it.
    I’m so over these cry babies.

  19. lionel richie needs to go to his safe space. Just who gives a crap what lionel richie thinks. He doesn’t own American Idol, but the SOB sure likes that $10M a year he makes in being a judge on that show. What happened about accepting others viewpoints. lionel, suck it, you are a has been.

  20. Did not know that about Lionel Ritchie. Thought he was smarter than that. There goes all my Lionel Ritchie music into the garbage now. Lost all respect for him.

  21. Hold up, American Idol is concerned about Carrie Underwood? If they remove her as a judge, I won’t watch them anymore. They’re boring anyways. Since Simon left the show it’s crashed and burned. Carrie would have been a breath of fresh air. Watch their rating crash if they remove her. That’s what they need to worry about.

  22. If they remove her, it’s more likely to create a drop in ratings than if all the people who “worry” about her presence left in mass to protest her inclusion. I also question the accuracy of the sources who have made the claim that people involved with the show are concerned. It’s a common tactic for one or two people, often not even part of the group being accused, to start rumors to create a false narrative of people being offended in order to further the left agenda.
