Miami’s Marine Stadium was ground zero for country music fans over the weekend.

A mixed bag of heavy hitters in the biz came out to play the two day Country Bay Music Festival.

Think Orlando “Cuban Cowboy” Mendez, from “The Voice”; the Zac Brown Band; Dustin Lynch; and DJ Diplo, going under his real name, Thomas Wesley.

But there was one performer who stole the show. That would be Carrie Underwood.

The 41-year-old headlined Saturday, rocking a high pony tail, shimmery short shorts and cowgirl ankle boots.

On Instagram, Underwood shared footage from the concert, thanking fans for coming out, despite the inclement weather.

“Miami never disappoints,” said the caption. “We had a blast…and we never mind the rain.”

In the comments, some attendees thanked her right back for putting on an awesome concert that saw her singing such classics as “Before He Cheats,” “Southbound” and “Jesus Take the Wheel.”

Other people in the responses couldn’t ignore one not detail (ahem, two): Underwood’s incredibly toned pins.

“Greatest legs on the planet.”

“This is how a queen slays.”

“I want to be Carrie Underwood’s legs when I grow up.”

When someone begged the new “American Idol” judge for her workout routine, a good Samaritan suggested pivoting over to Underwood’s other Instagram page for tutorials. It’s called Fit52, the same name as her wellness app.

Hint: Expect many, many lunges.

OK, it’s not all genes. The Oklahoma native does have a little help to look that fine.

Her longtime trainer Eve Overland told Shape over the summer that her client is very serious about fitness.

“Working out and staying healthy is just a way of life for Carrie. It is who she is, what she does,” Overland said of the mother of two. “Carrie understands that staying strong, mobile, and conditioned is so important in all aspects of her life, on and off the stage. Working out is self-care and her me time.”
