Wow! Singer Carrie Underwood was on fire at the 2023 CMT Awards in Texas on Sunday, strutting her stuff in the coolest leather outfit.

The country music singer sang her hit Hate My Heart, encapsulating the song in her heart-clad ensemble. Carrie stunned in a black leather corseted top with sparkling crystal embellishment, teamed with some glittering hotpants and matching jacket.

The star is the most-awarded artist in CMT Awards history and she certainly reminded viewers of her impressive talent on the night.

Carrie, 40, completed her striking look with some funky pointed-toe boots and wore her blonde tresses in a sassy down style. Beauty-wise, she went for a nude lip and smokey eye.

Earlier in the evening, the former American Idol winner impressed on the green carpet in a silver sequined Dolce & Gabbana two-piece which she accessorized with Oliver Blandi jewelry. Her all-silver look sparkled on the red carpet, and she let her outfit take center stage by pulling her hair back into a low ponytail. 

Carrie's incredibly toned legs were on show in the stunning ensemble – the star has undergone an amazing transformation recently and her sculpted pins looked fabulous.

The star added a matching, bejeweled jacket, a pair of silver heels, a rhinestone-embellished clutch, and some dangly diamond earrings.

This year's 2023 CMT Music Awards are the first ever to be hosted in Texas, and the special night took place at the Moody Center on April 2. It was hosted by three-time co-hosts Kelsea Ballerini – who made her red carpet debut with new beau Chase Stokes – and Kane Brown.

Away from the limelight, Carrie shares her two sons, Isaiah and Jacob, with her husband Mike Fisher. 

"I love being at home. I would literally never leave my house. I get nervous in crowds and in group settings and stuff like that," she told Today's Country Radio With Kelleigh Bannen on Apple Music Country.

She went on to share that her husband of 12 years is an extrovert who encourages her to "interact' with others, and "balances" her out.
