Carrie Underwood always has time to support a friend!
Days after singing the national anthem at her husband Mike Fisher’s playoff hockey game, the 35-year-old country star stepped out in New York City on Wednesday to watch her pal — and fellow American Idol winner — David Cook perform in the hit Broadway musical Kinky Boots.
Before returning to the public eye in April at the Academy of Country Music Awards, Underwood had kept a relatively low profile as she recovered from a frightening fall in November, which left the singer with a broken wrist and facial injuries that required her to get over 40 stitches.
While spending time together backstage, Underwood and Cook, who is playing Charlie Price in the musical through Saturday, posed together and shared a silly moment where Cook appeared to be preparing to jump into Underwood’s arms.

Earlier today, David took a moment to thank Carrie on social media, along with Maddie Ziegler, who also came out to see the show Wednesday night and visit with David backstage.
