Carrie Underwood gets personal in the June issue of Marie Claire. As the cover girl, she dazzles in a pink floral dress, but don’t let the pink fool you. The singer says she’s a lot tougher than her persona portrays.

“I’m not a mushy person at all. We were never a huggy family. Or a ‘let’s talk it out’ family. Technically I have siblings but they are quite a bit older than me — I was the accident — so I have the only-child syndrome going on,” said Underwood to the magazine. “I’m a little more selfish, a little more independent, a little closed. I do wish I was softer. I wish I was able to form relationships better. But hey, I mean …I’m not a sociopath.”

The country singer also shared that she wasn’t always a confident performer. “At the beginning of my career, I used to have panic attacks. People were touching me, screaming — it made me really nervous,” admits Carrie. “In public, I just get nervous. It’s a physical reaction, feeling like the walls are closing in.”

Underwood knew that stardom was in her future. “You were supposed to say what you would be doing in 10 years, and I said, ‘I will be rich, famous, and married to a hot guy,” reveals the singer, who is now married to hockey player Mike Fisher. When asked about children in the near future, Carrie responded: “I don’t feel old enough to have kids. I know I am mature. But being responsible for another human?”

The June issue of Marie Clair hits newsstands on May 21.
