Carrie Marie Underwood (born March 10, 1983) is an American pop country music singer who won the fourth season of American Idol. Since then, she has become a multi-platinum selling recording artist. Her debut album, Some Hearts, was certified 6x platinum and is the fastest selling debut country album in Nielsen SoundScan history. Underwood is the first American Idol winner to sweep up honors at all three major music awards in the same awards show season (06-07), including a grand total of four American Music Awards, thirteen Billboard Music Awards, and two Grammy Awards, including Best New Artist.
Her debut album, Some Hearts, has yielded five #1 hits to date on various charts in the United States and Canada: "Inside Your Heaven," "Jesus, Take the Wheel", "Don't Forget to Remember Me", "Wasted," and her biggest hit to date, "Before He Cheats." In addition, Underwood scored another Top 10 Billboard hit with her charity single, "I'll Stand by You."
Her second album, Carnival Ride (which is certified 2x Platinum by the RIAA) was released on October 23, 2007. It became Underwood's first #1 album and has so far sold over 2 million copies in the US alone and has already produced a #1 country hit, "So Small." The second single from the album, "All-American Girl", is already steadily climbing the charts, and actually charted even before its official release due to its popularity. The single is currently sitting at #17 on the Billboard Country chart. Carrie's Christmas single, "Do You Hear What I Hear?" peaked at #2 on the Billboard Adult Contemporary charts.
Aside from her vocals, Underwood's success is attributed to what many fans recognize as her wholesome image. In general, many of her songs also present inspirational and uplifting themes and messages.To date, Underwood has sold over 11 million copies worldwide in the last two years.
