Carrie Underwood and Luke Bryan at 'odds' after butting heads during 'American Idol' auditions
Though the latest season of "American Idol" is only in its third week, judges Carrie Underwood and Luke Bryan are already butting heads.
During Sunday's episode of the singing competition show, Underwood and Bryan faced multiple hurdles after disagreeing on whether certain contestants deserved to advance to the next round.
"Carrie, I know this has damaged our judging relationship just a wee bit," Bryan told Underwood at one point after putting a contestant through despite Underwood's opposition.

"Are we going to beef?" she later asked Bryan while on set.
"It's too late. You're going to have some flat tires," he joked.
