The Oklahoma native rocked a simple grey sleeveless dress as she walked toward the stage to perform at the political event.
She quickly began to grimace as it was made apparent there was an issue with the music and she waited on the background melody to begin for an awkward several seconds.
Carrie, 41, began to look around the indoor inauguration room as others present looked around as well, appearing to not know what to do.
At one point, a burst of music played for a split second but quickly stopped.
Despite the several moments of awkward silence, Carrie continued on to sing completely acapella as her voice echoed through the room.
Fans were impressed the American Idol judge was able to pull off the move so impressively.
“Carrie Underwood owned the moment after the glitch in the music for America the Beautiful by singing a cappella. It took an embarrassing moment and made it magnificent as Republicans and Democrats helped sing with her,” one person said.
“Carrie Underwood said we’ll do it LIVE and NAILED it like a DIVA! Absolutely iconic moment,” another wrote.
“Heroic moment by Carrie Underwood in the face of adversity. This is America,” a third praised.
“What a trooper Carrie was. She said to heck with the music. I’m here to sing and that she did,” another clapped along.
“Carrie Underwood singing America The Beautiful acappella because they didn’t have her music was a boss move,” one more gushed.
