Carrie Underwood Claims She’s “Not a Sociopath”

Written by Kelly Bandas on May 14, 2013 – 12:07 pm -

Country music superstar and former American Idol winner Carrie Underwood may have a reputation in the music industry for being a bit closed off, but that doesn’t mean the Oklahoma native is devoid of basic social skills!

Or does it…

In a recent interview with Marie Claire, the 30-year-old singer revealed that her quiet persona stems from her upbringing.

I’m not a mushy person at all. We were never a huggy family. Or a ‘let’s talk it out’ family. Technically I have siblings, but they are quite a bit older than me. I was the accident, so I have the only-child syndrome going on. I’m a little more selfish, a little more independent, a little closed. I do wish I were softer. I wish I were able to form relationships better. But hey, I mean, I’m not a sociopath.

The 30-year-old even shared that winning American Idol was somewhat traumatic for her.

At the beginning of my career, I used to have panic attacks. People were touching me, screaming ­– it made me really nervous. In public, I just get nervous. It’s a physical reaction, feeling like the walls are closing in. The fans are great. It’s not their fault. I don’t ever want to come across as ungrateful. But on my end, it is hard for me to process. Because I am still just me.

Up until this point in the interview, Carrie managed to come off as somewhat normal, but then she dropped this bombshell.  When asked if she always knew what she wanted to do when she grew up, the “Blown Away” singer responded:

[In my high school yearbook] You were supposed to say what you would be doing in 10 years, and I said, ‘I will be rich, famous, and married to a hot guy. I guess I should have added a few more things!

Sheesh! We don’t think this girl could get her nose higher in the air if she tried!
