Carrie Underwood “liquored up in Vegas”

In her new video, anyway.

Underwood, the fourth season "American Idol" winner who has gone onto country music superstardom, recently released a music video for the twangy rocker “Last Name”, from her second album, "Carnival Ride."

According to gossip site JustJared, the song was composed and co-written by Underwood, and the video starts with a flashback to Underwood's baseball bat-wielding "Before He Cheats" days, then fast-forwards to her meeting a guy on the dancefloor and eloping in Las Vegas "after getting liquored up." She wakes up the next morning to discover that she doesn’t even know her last name. And her "mama would be so ashamed."

An allegory of the Britney saga? A cautionary tale, in any event.

Watch the video here.
