Country music powerhouses Carrie Underwood and Keith Urban are no strangers to the "American Idol" stage. Underwood, the winner of season four, is returning as a judge for the show's 23rd season, and Urban, a former judge himself, has nothing but praise for his fellow country star. While fellow judge Luke Bryan joked about Underwood needing extra therapy to handle him and Lionel Richie, Urban disagrees, confidently stating, "She can handle Luke, trust me.

Luke Bryan's "Therapy" Advice
The news of Underwood's return to "American Idol" sent shockwaves through the music world, with many excited to see the country superstar back in the judge's chair. Luke Bryan, who will be returning for his eighth season alongside Lionel Richie, took a lighthearted approach to the announcement, suggesting that Underwood might need to double her therapy sessions to deal with him and Richie.
He even jokingly offered to gift her therapist a voucher.
Keith Urban's Confident Response
Urban, who judged "American Idol" for four seasons, saw the humor in Bryan's statement but quickly shut down any notion of Underwood needing extra help. Speaking at the ACM Honors, he confidently declared that Underwood is more than capable of handling Bryan's antics, stating, "She can handle Luke, trust me."
