Carrie Underwood doesn’t consider herself sexy

Carrie Underwood may have won American Idol and a Grammy — but she hasn’t let it go to her head.

“I don’t consider myself sexy … I’m kind of a nervous person in general,” Underwood, 25, admits in the July issue of Cosmopolitan.

“I’m socially awkward,” she adds. “I’m not tall and sensuous. I usually wear sweats everywhere I go. Oh, and I burp a lot.”

Underwood, an Us Weight Winner, has dated her share of good-looking guys, including Gossip Girl’s Chace Crawford and current Jessica Simpson beau Tony Romo.

Carrie also claims that she manages to scare guys off – but doesn’t really elaborate as to how. I almost – almost – feel badly for her. Okay not at all. Carrie Underwood has the best career, the most hits, the most talent, and is probably the most attractive – of any American Idol contestant. It’s hard to believe that she wouldn’t have been famous without the show.

Those articles about how normal/quasi-gross a celebrity can be are kind of cute, but after a while the novelty wears down. Yes, we get that you’re real people and you don’t jet around your home on a flying dragon or anything. But you’re still pretty damn lucky, and I’m guessing the whole down-to-earth thing only goes so far.
