#Cobra Kai Season 4 Landed That Major Cameo Due To Some Fangirl Tweets

Huh? I hear you. The head of the tournament/dentist-by-day wanted to bump things up a bit by bringing in one of his celebrity clients to get the crowd hyped up. No one thought he could pull it off, but apparently, he’s Underwood’s dentist. What really happened was that Carrie Underwood tweeted about her love for the series back in August of 2020.

Just started watching #kobraKai on Netflix. Ummmm…it’s kinda awesome! 🐍👍

Right away stars Ralph Macchio and William Zabka tweeted back at her to thank her: 

Thanks for the shout! We love doing the show. Enjoy!! 🥋

Hey, anything that gets this show more seasons is a good thing. “Cobra Kai” creators Jon Hurwitz, Josh Heald, and Hayden Schlossberg apparently thought so as well. They told EW that they quickly approached Underwood about being in the series. Schlossberg added, “Be careful what you tweet about ‘Cobra Kai’ if you’re a celebrity … because we immediately log it and think about the possibilities.” 

He continued by saying:

“We knew that we wanted this year’s All Valley to be, like, the biggest All Valley ever, and we joked about the idea of there being that kind of Super Bowl halftime performer … [Underwood] happens to sing the Sunday Night Football song, so it made a lot of sense. We didn’t know if it was going to come together, but she really loved the show and it was a match made in heaven.”
