Well last night, Billy appeared on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen to promote his new queer romcom Bros and was asked by a fan about the ordeal.

"Did you ever find out why Carrie Underwood blocked you on Twitter?" the fan asked.
Bravo
"Carrie Underwood blocked me from Twitter, which I consider a great honor. It was one of the great thrills of my life," Billy said.
Bravo
"Jesus, follow me back on Twitter," Billy said, referencing Carrie's hit "Jesus Take The Wheel."
Bravo
"During the height of COVID, she retweeted a speech about how kids shouldn't have to wear masks in schools, letting her political views be known for the first time," he said.
Bravo
Billy was probably referring to Carrie liking (not retweeting) this anti-mask tweet, which drew backlash at the time.

"I guess I made some jokes about that that went viral on Twitter, and she didn't like that."
Bravo
Welp. Well, besides, you know, the block, Carrie has not responded to Billy, but we'll update you if she does. And you can watch more of Billy's WWHL appearance here.
