All is not well in the Fisher-Underwood household!

During a Thursday appearance on the Ellen DeGeneres Show, Carrie Underwood joked that married life with Mike Fisher is "great" but "comes with its own wonderfulness and challenges."

Especially since Fisher, 30, moved from his native Canada to Underwood's adopted hometown of Nashville, Tenn. (The hockey player was traded from the Ottawa Senators to the Nashville Predators in February, thus ending the long-distance aspect of their marriage.)

Underwood's complaint about the sudden cohabitation? "He came and he brought all of his crap with him," the singer, 28, complained. "Our house became...he's not a hoarder but he's close, maybe."

The Grammy winner explained that Fisher kept his "hoarding" tendencies under wraps at his home. "He had it in all the guest bedrooms and he had it boxed up and stuff. He's like, 'Babe, I need more space in the closet and my heart just sinks.'"

What does her man hoard? "Shirts and stuff...He loves to shop. He's going to kill me. He has stuff come in, and I'm like, 'It's not going out fast enough. If you bring stuff in, stuff needs to go out. Do we need this shirt? It has a giant stain on the sleeve. Are we going to wear this again? No, then do something with it.' It's still hanging up there!"

She added of her man, whom she wed last summer: "I know he would say [that] I'm too controlling and I nag at him to get his stuff put up."

    Maybe you guys didn't listen to the interview because Carrie was laughing and joking the whole time. She and Mike and very happy, this article is just twisting the way she was telling a funny story.

    hmmm.... as the other posters here have pointed out,getting him a room for his things and making stained shirts into rags to clean with should solve the problem.hmmm... I also heard she's not too plesed that he likes to watch fights on TV w/his friends more than once,and she has to remind him to change the lightbulbs and take out the trash and stuff....hmmm... could the "rose -colored glasses" be starting to come off?? Stay tunded folks... this could get interesting....

    If it's causing a problem, build a room or give him a room of his own for his stuff and close the door. Make the stained shirts useful rags. Give clothes to charity. This is just a part of his makeup. Figure out a way to work with it, not control it. It's not worth letting it turn into a "tension" monster. I get it though. I like having things neat and orderly. I go through my closet once a year. If I haven't worn it during that time, it goes. Pick a day or few hours that you BOTH go through your stuff. That way he doesn't feel like he's the only one adhereing to this "rule". Tell him how good he'll feel giving to people that have alot less.

Pick a day or a few hours that BOTH of you can go through your stuff. That way he doesn't feel like he's the only one having to do this. It's not worth creating tension in the relationship. I'm totally get it. I like having things neat and orderly also. I go through my closet once a year. If I haven't worn it during that time, it goes. This is just in his makeup. You have to figure out a way to work with it, not control it.

It's not worth causing tension in the relationship. I'm the same way. I like things neat and orderly. I go through my closet at least once a year and if I haven't worn it during that time, it goes.
