Carrie Underwood snubs Kamala Harris at Donald Trump's inauguration

An X user @MrPopOfficial posted the clip and captioned it, "Carrie Underwood snubbed Kamala Harris at the inauguration today when she skipped shaking her hand as she shook others around her. A much different statement from the one she gave about coming together and unity."

Carrie Underwood was not happy with her performance at Donald Trump's inauguration
Carrie Underwood was furious after her performance at Donald Trump's inauguration as she wasn't given a "stage or platform even" like earlier performers - such as Beyonce or Lady Gaga, an insider claimed to Daily Mail.
The source said, "Carrie was dissatisfied with her performance at the event, primarily due to the limited space she was given, which left her feeling cramped and uncomfortable."
They added, "Her anxiety was high throughout the performance, and she felt that she was not afforded the same level of respect or admiration that previous performers, such as Beyoncé and Lady Gaga, had received. She felt as if she was ushered in and out and had a mini hissy fit afterwards."
The source further revealed, "She is used to playing at massive venues with a stage to herself. She was not given a stage or a platform even. She felt like she was literally just in a room with people all around her and a microphone. This threw off the acoustics."
