Carrie Underwood's mega successful career is obviously a byproduct of winning Season 4 of 'American Idol.' While the 'Two Black Cadillacs' singer could have a fleet of private jets at her disposal at this point in her career, such was not the case when she first won the show. She was offered access to a private jet -for free!- but she nixed it for practical reasons.
March 14, 2013 Getting ready for Carrie Underwood's upcoming appearance on Taste of Country Nights on Friday got me to reminiscing about the times I've spent with her over the years.
Carrie Underwood turned 30 on Sunday (March 10), but she likes to say it's the one year anniversary of her 29th birthday. Age doesn't bother the 'Two Black Cadillacs' singer -- she just can't wrap her mind around being 30 quite yet. But that isn't going to keep the superstar from celebrating all week long.
For just the second time since the Taste of Country Top 10 Video Countdown began, a new video sits at No. 1. Carrie Underwood's 'Two Black Cadillacs' and the Henningsens' 'American Beautiful' fought a very close battle for the top spot; it was the most contested video Top 10 of all time, with the narrowest margin of victory.
'American Idol' winner and country music starlet Carrie Underwood knows what it's like to sing your heart out and then wait for judges to decide your musical fate, and she's willing to do it... if she can be the bearer of good news.

Carrie Underwood was in rare form on Wednesday night (Feb. 27), stripped down for a bare bones and relaxed version of not only her hit songs, but herself -- just Carrie. The superstar traded designer gowns for a more casual black pants, light jacket look to join top country songwriters Luke Laird, Hillary Lindsey and Josh Kear for a swap of songs, performed acoustically on a small Nashville stage in front of an intimate Country Radio Seminar (CRS) audience.
Rural living is often a theme in country music videos, so it's rather reasonable to expect a farm animal to make a cameo in a clip from country music's biggest names. With that said, we don't think creative fan-made "goat versions" of 'I Knew You Were Trouble' and 'Blown Away' are what Taylor Swift and Carrie Underwood had in mind when they released their blockbuster videos. Both were victims of a new internet craze called "goating."
Carrie Underwood's hugely-successful Blown Away Tour will be memorialized with a Country Music Hall of Fame exhibit entitled Carrie Underwood: The Blown Away Tour, which will launch on June 5 and run live through Nov. 10, 2013.
Carrie Underwood made sure any of the buzz surrounding other dresses at the 2013 Grammy Awards was 'Blown Away' by wearing a light-up dress that literally lit up the Staples Center.
Last week, tabloids circulated rumors that Carrie Underwood and Taylor Swift had to be kept separate at the 2013 Grammys because of a feud between the two country superstars. Anonymous "sources" said the two "hate each other" and executives at the awards show had to make sure they didn't cross paths. As you could probably guess, none of it's true, according to Underwood herself.
Carrie Underwood's 'Blown Away' picked up an early 2013 Grammy Award for Best Country Song during Sunday's pre-telecast ceremony, where 70 Grammys were handed out and songwriters Josh Kear and Chris Tompkins were on hand to accept for their country smash.
