From one girl boss to another! Carrie Underwood made her debut as Katy Perry‘s replacement on American Idol during the Season 23 premiere on Sunday, March 9, prompting fans to debate about who’s the better judge for the singing competition.

Megan Michaels Wolflick also pointed out that Carrie Underwood “handled very well” the technical difficulties her inauguration performance faced.
