Carrie Underwood Had Her Freckles Removed, Owns 250 Pairs of Heels . . . And Can Bench Press Close to 100 Pounds

You’ve probably never noticed CARRIE UNDERWOOD’s freckles, and there’s a good reason for that.  She had them removed a long time ago. She tells “People”, quote, “I had freckles on my face and they were in the exact same spot on both of my cheeks, so I got teased at school.  I remember asking my mom if we could get rid of them.  Well, I did get rid of them.” There’s also an interesting story behind that million-dollar smile.  Quote, “I had bad teeth, too.  I had to get braces more than once.  I actually had them on the bottom for three months while doing red carpets, but no one knew, so I felt like I had a secret.” In a different interview, Carrie played a game of “29 Questions” and there were some great answers.  Her first job was at a gas station . . . she sleeps better when she’s in Oklahoma . . . and she admitted to owning 250 pairs of heels.
