On this week's American idol, Carrie Underwood went all-in, doing everything she could to help contestant Sophia Humbert improve her rendition of "Before He Cheats."
"You have a great voice. I feel like a song like that though, there has to be a little rage in there somewhere," Underwood told the budding singer after she finished. "Do you get angry? You gotta dig down deep," she asked Humbert, who seemed nervous. Fellow Idol judge Luke Bryan had an idea to help her find her rage: The whole crew would take a drive somewhere outside, where they could beat the daylights out of an old red pickup truck.
Don't worry: Everyone wore safety goggles.
Watch below as Underwood's "Before He Cheats" comes on and Underwood herself steps up and keys the biscuits out of the truck while the contestant sings.
As the part of the song about taking a Louisville Slugger to the headlights comes on, the contestant does just that while singing, taking a bat to the vehicle as the judges are cheering her on.
After the audition, Lionel Richie, Bryan, Underwood and even Ryan Seacrest got to take turns destroying the old truck with a bat — many felonies to be had, if this were not a television show.
