Carrie Underwood: 'Being a vegetarian is easy'

Carrie Underwood finds being a vegetarian easy.

While many vegetarians complain it is difficult to find restaurants which will will cater to their needs, Carrie says she never has a problem when eating out.

She told Stylist magazine: ''I am 100 per cent vegetarian but I try my best to be vegan. It's getting better. There are so many restaurants that will work with you - even steakhouses. My husband [ice hockey player Mike Fisher]loves to eat meat and there's a place called King Prime that we like to go to. They're always really nice to me and give me veggies if I ask for them. There's loads of newer restaurants in [Nashville districts] East Nashville and The Gulch that will cater for you too...''

Meanwhile, despite reports Hayden Panettiere's feisty 'Nashville' character is based on her, Carrie insists she and her other singer friends are nothing like her.

She explained: ''Noooo! There are so few women in country music versus the men. But the TV shows are always about them and how drama-rific it all is, how they all hit each other.

''I have a lot of girlfriends in the scene and none of us are like any of the characters on the show!''
