So You Think You Can Dance Executive Producer Nigel Lythgoe and Dance judge Adam Shankman are co-Producing the Carrie Underwood: An All-Star Holiday Special, with Lythgoe taking on the directing duties.

According to Lythgoe, Underwood will poke a bit of fun at her rise from American Idol season four winner to the top of Country Music.  And while both men agree that Underwood is a genuine superstar now (hardly surprising), they were shocked by what terrific comedy timing the Country Music star has.
