Carrie Underwood is dishing about her career highlights and wishes in a recent Carrie’s Country clip shared to her Instagram. Carrie’s Country is the “Before He Cheats” singer’s personal SiriusXM channel.

In the video, Underwood is asked about her top three career moments. The first two she shares are probably pretty obvious: “Winning American Idol” and “becoming a Grand Ole Opry member.”

The third career highlight, though, is a little less obvious. “Being at Stage Coach and getting to call Axl Rose out on stage because it was something that I’d been hoping for forever,” she says.

In the comments of the post, one fan reflected on the moment, “That encore at Stagecoach with Axel is still one of my favorite concert moments. It was so fun, even all the way in the back of the crowd they killed it! 🎶 when are you putting out a 80s rock album? 🤘🤔😎”

“I’ve gotten to sing with them, but I would love to record something with Guns N’ Roses,” she said. “That would be really cool.”
