Carrie Underwood's ice hockey star husband Mike Fisher has hit out at radio station bosses in Canada after they blamed the country singer for prompting his move from Ottawa to Tennessee and banned her music from their airwaves.

But the snub has upset the "Before He Cheats" hitmaker and Fisher reveals his wife has been left "extremely disappointed" by the news. He tells the Vancouver Sun, "I heard about it right away and Carrie heard about it and she was extremely disappointed and frustrated - I think they meant it as a joke that really wasn't funny."
