Carrie, 41, wore small denim shorts with a bejeweled belt and matching denim cowboy boots.

She added a white shirt and a sequin jacket with flowers on it on top.

Her blonde hair was down and curly, and she had on a bunch of rings and dangly earrings.

The singer performed My Last Name, Before He Cheats, and Out of That Truck.

She also gave away a pair of tickets for her Las Vegas Residency show, Reflection, to a fan in the crowd.

During an interview with GMA hosts Sam Champion and Lara Spencer, Carrie admitted she was sweating through her sequins in the New York heat.

CARRIED BACK

Carrie was named the official new judge of American Idol on July 31.

Carrie is replacing Katy Perry, who decided to leave the singing show after seven seasons to focus on her new album and touring.

The announcement was made on GMA live and American Idol’s Instagram page on Thursday.

“I went from no one knowing my name to tens of millions of people watching ,e,” Carrie said in a voiceover.

“I was proud of everything I’ve accomplished on the show, and I’m proud of everything I have accomplished so far.”

As Carrie talked, throwback videos of her on her farm in Oklahoma and American Idol played on the screen, including host Ryan Seacrest announcing her as the winner.

Katy told Jimmy Kimmel in February that she would not be returning for Season 8.
