A parody account on X apparently tried to take advantage of the people who are somehow still mad about that performance, and posted a fake quote from the \u201cJesus Take the Wheel\u201d singer aimed at Michelle Obama.<\/p>\n
In the wake of comedian Druski releasing a skit of himself in whiteface mocking Erika Kirk, wife of late Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, the parody account claimed that Underwood proposed dressing up in blackface to mock the former First Lady:<\/p>\n
The only problem is that it\u2019s clearly a fake quote. Just completely fabricated. And the account that posted it even notes in its biography that it\u2019s a parody account of the popular \u201cPop Crave\u201d account.<\/p>\n

Despite the fact that it\u2019s clearly (a pretty poor attempt at) parody, the tweet still managed to rack up 11k likes so far and nearly 2,000 replies, most of whom appeared to believe that it was an actual quote from Carrie.<\/p>\n
Well the country superstar recently appeared at a Nashville Predators game alongside her husband, former Preds captain Mike Fisher, for a promotional night in which fans were given bobbleheads of the celebrity couple. Because everybody loves a good bobblehead, am I right?<\/p>\n
But anyway, the Preds posted a photo of the power couple from the game to their Instagram account, which apparently caught the attention of the same idiots who believed the fake quote. And as a result, the Preds were flooded with troll comments from people outraged at the fake quote and threateningly urging Carrie to go through with her plan to wear blackface:<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
The post currently has around 1,200 comments, most from people who don\u2019t seem to realize that the quote was completely fake and made up.<\/p>\n
That\u2019s just how the internet works these days I guess. Get outraged first and verify later.<\/p>\n
Of course it\u2019s the second time in the past week that the Preds have had to deal with a social media backlash, after the team went viral for hosting a \u201cPride Night\u201d last week that drew criticism from some high-profile voices on the right:<\/p>\n
The outrage was so loud that the Preds issued a statement standing by their decision to host the theme night, which featured a national anthem performance from a group called The Cowgays as well as performances from LGBT artist Brady Riley during the period breaks:<\/p>\n
\u201cWe understand that initiatives like Pride Night, Faith and Family night, Recovery Night, Women of Smashville Night, Ford Military Week and celebrations for Black History, API and others can be meaningful and affirming for many, while others may see them differently. We respect that our fan base is diverse not only in identity, but in viewpoint. That diversity is part of what makes our community strong.<\/p>\n
We believe that hockey is for everyone. As an organization, we remain committed to fostering an environment rooted in respect, inclusion, and a shared passion for hockey. We will continue listening to our fans, supporting one another, and focusing on what unites us: the energy of the game, the spirit of competition, and the shared connection that we have in our team and our city.\u201d<\/p>\n
However, OutKick pointed out that the team left their \u201cFaith and Family Night\u201d promotion off their calendar, which the team blamed on an oversight:<\/p>\n
When I asked the Predators why “Faith & Family Night” AKA Christian Night was not only omitted from their Theme Night promotional calendar, but why is it not an arena-wide event like Pride Night, the team said:<\/p>\n
