It wasn't easy for Teri Hatcher to get up on stage and perform Carrie Underwood's "Before He Cheats" on Wednesday night's Idol Gives Back special.

“Singing on Idol Gives Back ... now that was nerve-wracking!” Hatcher told Usmagazine.com after taping her performance Sunday.

Her Desperate Housewives costar James Denton played the guitar.

“She’s brilliant,” he raved to Us. “She did Cabaret on Broadway — people forget that she's a great singer!”

Hatcher said Denton had a hand in picking the song.

“Jamie texted me and said, ‘I just heard this song, and I think it would be great for you,’” she told Us.

“And not 10 minutes earlier, my daughter and I had heard it on the radio, and she said to me, ‘You'd be really good at this song!’" Hatcher added. "So I told Jamie, 'It was really weird that my daughter said the same thing, so I guess that's what we should sing.'"

After her performance, Underwood came out on stage and congratulated her.

Said Hatcher, “She was very sweet. I didn't put her on the spot or anything!”
