“Her appearance is beginning to change. She’s attractive. One viewer said, “Stop before you ruin yourself.” “She doesn’t even look like herself anymore!” said another. She has undoubtedly had her lips “plumped.” The individual even questioned why stars are unable to preserve the beauty of nature.
Similar sentiments were expressed by others. “I didn’t recognize her either,” one person commented. Indeed, she had those large lips [sic] and looked so natural. Someone else said, “Stop that Botox lip injections.” Another person just said, “Her lips are huge.”

Someone else added that they believed they had observed a “bump.” There was yet more conjecture. “I love her, but I don’t understand why she had to mess up with fillers and Botox but is she pregnant, [sic]?” muttered another fan.

Despite the criticism, Underwood’s loyal followers were eager to defend her and give her a lot of praise.One ardent admirer commented, “Love her outfit!” in praise of the singer’s western-inspired attire. Someone another said, “She’s beautiful and always wears the most amazing outfits.”
