Carrie Underwood, Mike Fisher: Hockey and Holidays Throw Marriage Curveballs

Carrie Underwood's husband, NHL player Mike Fisher, is currently on lockout and sticking closer to home, while Carrie is spending most of her time away on her Blown Away trek, checking in with him frequently on the road. But any thoughts of leaving her hubby a "honey-do" list seem to have gone right out the window!

"I wish that would happen, to be honest," the singer tells WYCD radio in Detroit. "I find myself getting angry, not for real, but getting annoyed because I was like, 'OK, I'll make my tour when you are going to be pretty much gone anyway during the season,' and now he's at home. We'll have these crazy days where there's all kinds of ... a photo shoot, this show, then we travel here and I've got to get on a plane and fly to some awards show. I'll call him and [say], 'What did you do today?' He'll say, 'I worked out and then I played golf.' I'm like, 'Oh, must be nice.'" (Watch the interview below.)

Carrie says during a previous NHL lockout, Mike played hockey in Europe. But she fears he may be getting a little long in the tooth for that option.
"He's kind of an older player," she notes. "He's not an old guy, but he's 31. So, in hockey years, that's like 50-something."

Carrie also reveals details of her Thanksgiving, which was spent with family in Oklahoma, since she had a show in Tulsa last week. She also had a Turkey Day dinner in Nashville with several friends who don't have family in the area. "We were a bunch of loners hanging out together," she says.

Although the superstar tweeted that she was going to have tofu turkey, she says they ended up not making that. But since she's a vegetarian and doesn't eat turkey, they also served "a lot of good side dishes that were sans meat."

Looking ahead to Christmas, Carrie says her husband told her not to get him anything this year.

"Because what do either one of us get each other?" she explains. He says, 'Nothing unless it has a motor.' But I've already done that. I bought the man a tractor. I've gotten him a four-wheeler, got him a car for our wedding present. So I'm out of things. I wouldn't know what else to get him with a motor, anyway."

On the subject of other things with motors, Carrie also talked about her new single, "Two Black Cadillacs." Side note to the singer: If Mike finds himself locked out of games for the rest of the season, maybe you could get him his very own zamboni? He's probably missing that.

This marriage is over. If they were in love, this NHL lockout would be a blessing to her. Mike would be on tour with his wife in every city, they'd take in the sites together, and he'd be holding way more than her purse. But he's not with her on tour, he's home, or in Nashville anyway, her kept man. When you do see them together she looks uncomfortable, awkward, and yes, unhappy. These tweets and comments speak volumes. When a women start bitching and making below-the-belt jokes at their husband's expense, questioning their manhood, calling them a purse-holder, gold digger, and a washed-up, unemployed loser, basically.... on twitter no less.... you have to KNOW there's trouble in paradise.

wow, people should get over themselves.
People are a hoot! People should reread Carrie’s and Mike’s tweets. Mike jokingly said, he stole money and Carrie commented back. It’s how they flirt and they’re perfectly happy. This pic is just one of many pictures taken at the CMAs, one of the bad ones, I’ve seen the others and they look perfectly happy. Oh, has anyone seen their AMA pictures. they looked pretty cozy and their interview? Oh yeah, you didn’t so stop judging!

She doesn't look very happy in the opening picture.
I hope life gets better for them.

I am willing to bet this marriage isn't going to last.

Yeah, a good woman doesn't make below the belt jokes at her husband's expense, generally speaking. No man wants to be publicly emasculated. It's not funny. The poor guys out of work too. WTH?

Wow. Lay off our Mike ! Last week Carrie Underwood went on Twitter and called her gorgeous Canadian hockey hubby, Mike Fisher, an award-winning "purse holder" a "gold digger" and an "unemployed trophy" husband!

But that wasn't bad enough! Now she's making him out to be a lazy, no account, washed up, freeloadin' skater... while she's forced to go out and do all that horrible hard work in order to keep her loser husband in luxury and big ticket gifts items.

Way to kick a guy when he's down! A professional NHL hockey player should NOT have to take public pot shots from his own wife! What a ball buster. Imagine what she says to him in private! I'm sure he'd rather be playing hockey, but why isn't Mike on tour with his wife, if he's got nothing better to do? Sounds like he's locked out in more ways than one.
