Country singer Carrie Underwood goes back to her roots in a Southern photo shoot with Glamour magazine. The “American Idol” alum opens up to the magazine about her new album Blown Away and what it’s like to live out her relationship in the public eye.

“A plus is, [husband Mike Fisher] knew what to expect,” she explained. “In Canada he was a big celebrity, so he knows what it’s like living under a microscope. And he travels a lot, which is good for both of us. We’re both independent people, so we can’t have somebody around 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The drawback is that we can go weeks without seeing each other. But he’s the only guy I’ve never had to worry about. Any guy I’ve ever dated, there would always be that doubt: ‘He didn’t answer his phone. What’s he doing? It’s late.’ I’m not the crazy-girlfriend type, but there was a little voice in the back of my head. I don’t have to worry about Mike. I don’t think twice. He’s going out? I don’t care; it doesn’t bother me. I don’t bat an eye.”
