Michael Phelps and Carrie Underwood ?

World record-setting Olympic swimmer Michael Phelps recently talked about Carrie Underwood in a candid interview with Extra. He was told that Carrie had a slight crush on him. "That's the first I've heard of that," he said. "That's pretty cool."
Now, there's a rumor floating around that the two are frequently texting each other and planning a "quiet first date" together near Carrie's home in Nashville, Tennessee.
A source told The National Enquirer that Michael doesn't want their first date to involve any eating. He apparently wrote to Carrie, "I'm not so sure you'd want to see me eat! It might not make a great first impression."
The source also said that Carrie is a little hesitant to start dating again. "Carrie needs someone who is going to stick by her. She was devastated when her relationship with Tony Romo broke. The last thing she needs is a relationship with another high-profile celebrity who's going to end up loving and leaving her."
