CARRIE UNDERWOOD SURPRISES YOUNG FAN WITH NEWS SHE'S PERFORMING AT CMA MUSIC FESTIVAL IN JUNE

NASHVILLE - A trembling 15-year-old fan was the first to find out: Carrie Underwood will be among the stars performing at this year's CMA Music Festival Thursday through Sunday, June 10-13 in Nashville.

Underwood took time out of her packed Super Bowl rehearsal schedule, where she is singing the National Anthem on Sunday, to call 15-year-old Riley Ahlstrand with the news. Ahlstrand, an ardent fan of the Festival, was being interviewed by a news crew from the Nashville ABC affiliate (WKRN) when reporter Brad Schmitt's phone rang and he handed it to the wide-eyed teen.

On the line was Underwood to tell the nearly speechless girl that she would be performing at the Festival this year; and Ahlstrand heard it first.

"I always look forward to the excitement of CMA Music Festival," said Underwood after the call. "Its fans like Riley that make the week so much fun."

"This is the best thing that has ever happened, said Ahlstrand, with tears still streaming down her face. "I couldn't have dreamed anything cooler than this!"

Ahlstrand came to WKRN's attention after she sent an email to CMA: "My dream is to meet Carrie Underwood, and the CMA Music Festival is my absolute favorite thing.I want more than anything for Carrie Underwood to appear at CMA Music Festival this year. Thank you so much for everything that you do, and for putting on such a spectacular week June 10-13! This truly is the ultimate fan experience."

3-D Grammy Tribute to Michael Jackson to Feature Performance by Carrie Underwood


SANTA MONICA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--GRAMMY® winners Celine Dion, Jennifer Hudson, Smokey Robinson, Carrie Underwood, and Usher will join together, along with the voice of Michael Jackson, in a moving tribute to Jackson at the 52nd Annual GRAMMY Awards on Sun. Jan. 31, 8 – 11:30 p.m. ET/PT. This very special GRAMMY Moment will feature the never-before-seen 3-D mini-movie for "Earth Song" that was created by Jackson as the centerpiece of his much anticipated "This Is It" tour, but was never seen by the public prior to this GRAMMY performance.

The 3-D film was created to support the performance of "Earth Song," an original composition and a No. 1 hit for Jackson. The song has a strong theme about the future of the planet, and Jackson saw it as a unique opportunity to deliver a message to millions of people who would have seen him on tour.

"It was one of the most important portions of the concert tour to Michael and when Michael saw the film for the first time at his last rehearsal, there were tears in his eyes," according to Ken Ehrlich, GRAMMY co-Executive Producer and longtime Jackson associate, who was also at the rehearsal that night.

"This very special GRAMMY Moment will feature some of our most respected GRAMMY recipients, all of whom have a great love for Michael," added Neil Portnow, President/CEO of The Recording Academy. "This segment promises to be an emotional highlight of this year's show, and is sure to join the unique list of amazing performances for which the GRAMMY Awards have become renowned."

This special segment also represents another GRAMMY technical breakthrough in that it will be the first time a major awards show broadcasts in 3-D. The GRAMMY Awards also were the first awards show to broadcast in high definition and 5.1 surround sound (2003).

So that viewers can enjoy this unique 3-D TV experience at home, CBS and Target have partnered to provide millions of free 3-D GRAMMY Glasses. From Sunday, Jan. 24, through Sunday, Jan. 31, Target stores nationwide will exclusively offer these 3-D GRAMMY Glasses so that fans have the opportunity to see the film that was very personal to Jackson. Additionally, the audience at STAPLES Center will share the 3-D experience, wearing the same glasses as those being worn by viewers at home.

Carrie Underwood is up for two awards this year: Best Female Country Vocal Performance for "Just A Dream," and Best Country Collaboration With Vocals for "I Told You So" (with Randy Travis).

The music industry's premier event will take place live on Sunday, Jan. 31, at STAPLES Center in Los Angeles and will be broadcast in HDTV and 5.1 Surround Sound on the CBS Television Network from 8 – 11:30 p.m. (ET/PT). The show also will be supported on radio via Westwood One worldwide, and covered online at GRAMMY.com and CBS.com, and on YouTube at www.youtube.com/thegrammys.

Carrie Has Top Country Album of the Decade


Carrie Underwood’s Some Hearts Scores Billboard’s Top Country Album of the Decade

Carrie’s TV Appearances This Week Include Encore Airing of
“Carrie Underwood: An All-American Holiday Special” (Fox, December 22) and
“A Home For The Holidays” (CBS, December 23)


Nashville, TN – Six weeks since the release of country superstar Carrie Underwood’s new album Play On, which has yielded the #1 hit, “Cowboy Casanova,” and brand-new heart-wrenching single, “Temporary Home,” the reigning ACM Entertainer of the Year received an early holiday surprise. Billboard announces that Carrie’s Some Hearts is the Top Country Album of the Decade.

Also included in Billboard’s year-end special double issue is the acknowledgement that her feisty smash, “Before He Cheats” (#8), is the only female showing in the Top 20 Hot Country Songs of the Decade.

The 19 Recordings/Arista Nashville hit-maker’s TV appearances this week include an encore airing of, “Carrie Underwood: An All-American Holiday Special” on Fox, Tuesday, December 22, 8-10 pm/7-9 pm Central and “A Home For The Holidays” on CBS, Wednesday, December 23, 8-9 pm/7-9 pm Central. On both shows, she will perform her current single, “Temporary Home,” which she co-penned with Luke Laird and Zac Maloy.

A four-time GRAMMY Award winner, ACM Entertainer of the Year, and reigning, three-time CMA and ACM Female Vocalist winner, Carrie’s Play On re-teams her with producer Mark Bright, who helmed her Carnival Ride collection as well as seven tracks from her 2005 album debut, Some Hearts. To date, Underwood has amassed more than 11 million in U.S. album sales with Some Hearts, 2007’s Carnival Ride and 2009’s Play On. Along the way, she has consistently broken new ground and earlier this year became the first country artist in history and the only American Idol winner ever to achieve ten #1 singles from their first two albums. When “Cowboy Casanova,” the debut single from Play On, recently achieved #1, Carrie’s string of uninterrupted #1s increased to 11.

New Carrie Underwood Interview


Carrie Underwood: What I've Learned



From Esquire.com...

The 26-year-old country star's lessons from Simon Cowell, Tony Romo, American Idol, and the dirty basements of stardom

I was so nervous when I was on my way to L. A. I'd never been on a plane, and I was going alone. I kind of got teary-eyed. My dad was driving, and he said, "If you want to go home, we can go home, and you never have to think about this again." And I thought, If I don't go, I'm choosing for this not to happen. It will be my choice. So I figured it would be easier for me to get kicked off American Idol than to have it be my own decision.

I've learned the most throughout my life from age twenty-two till now.

As you step off that stage, you're pretty much alone.

My cell phone is my best friend. It's my lifeline to the outside world.

There's no handbook.

People can take your words and make them into something awful and something you never meant it to be.

CARRIE UNDERWOOD AND FRIENDS CELEBRATE THE SEASON

ON “CARRIE UNDERWOOD: AN ALL-STAR HOLIDAY SPECIAL”

MONDAY, DECEMBER 7, ON FOX


Brad Paisley, Dolly Parton, David Cook,
Kristin Chenoweth, Christina Applegate, and Sons of Sylvia

Join Carrie on Her Holiday Special

Multi-platinum recording artist and Grammy Award winner Carrie Underwood headlines a two-hour variety special in which she will perform new music from her upcoming album as well as previous hits and holiday classics. Underwood will be joined on stage by special musical guests and chart-topping artists, including Dolly Parton, Brad Paisley, David Cook, Kristin Chenoweth, Christina Applegate and Sons of Sylvia, on CARRIE UNDERWOOD: AN ALL-STAR HOLIDAY SPECIAL airing Monday, Dec. 7 (8:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX.

From Zap2it...

Carrie Underwood may not have this holiday season covered as much as Santa, but she's close.

The award-winning singer and past "American Idol" is all over the home screen these days, partially in service of promoting her newest CD, "Play On." After co-hosting last month's CMA Awards on ABC with Brad Paisley and starring in a Country Music Television "Invitation Only" concert -- among other stops -- she headlines "Carrie Underwood: An All-Star Holiday Special" Monday, Dec. 7, on Fox.

Paisley, Dolly Parton, Kristin Chenoweth and fellow "Idol" David Cook are guests on the two-hour show, sure to feature Underwood's current hit "Casanova Cowboy" among more traditional sounds of December.

"It was good," Underwood says of recording the show. "We had to fit everything into a couple of days, so that all the performers could come together. Those were crazy days that meant getting up at 5, going to rehearsal, taping something, then changing my clothes and rehearsing and taping something else. It was nuts, but I think it ended up really good.

"It's almost like an award show," adds Underwood in citing prior experience she could draw upon. "There are lots of performances, I announce people and I talk to people ... but here, I'm doing everything. It was a little bit of overload for me, but it was also exciting and a lot of fun. If I could get through that, I could get through anything, so everything else seems easier now."

Having two hours made Underwood comfortable with showcasing her hits while also serving a Christmas motif.

"Everything has its place," she says, "so I don't think it was difficult to fit in everything I wanted. We ended up with something like six new songs from the album, a few favorites from my other two albums and other people performing some of their own stuff. It's a variety show, so people expect to tune in and see lots of different things."

CN: Don't miss this fantastic opportunity to catch this unique presentation. "Carrie Underwood: An All-Star Holiday Special" airs tonight (December 7) on FOX. 8pm ET/PT.

Carrie Underwood performs in The Bahamas

Here are some really cool pics of Carrie's performance in The Bahamas on Saturday night.


This one's my favorite...

Paradise Island, Bahamas - American country singer and songwriter, Carrie Underwood performed in The Bahamas at Atlantis on December 5th in a sold out concert with an audience ranging from pre-teen to senior citizens.

Breaking away from her country roots during the last quarter of the show with an electrifying cover of 'Paradise City' by Guns 'n Roses at which point half the audience, already a little miffed by Atlantis' heavily enforced "you have to stay seated at all times" policy rushed to the front of the stage to let loose and finally really enjoy the rest of the performance.

Carrie also took some time out to catch some rays, as reported by USMagazine...

Carrie Underwood showed off her bikini body Monday during a vacation at the Cove Atlantis resort in the Bahamas.

"Just thought I'd write and make you all jealous by telling you about the wonderful time I'm having in the Bahamas!" she wrote on her official fan club site this weekend. "It was a breezy 80 something outside and the sun was shining bright...I managed to get a nice little bronzy color today. I'm actually a wee bit burned, but it doesn't hurt. I'll have to break out the SPF tomorrow ... This is the best vacation I have been on in a long time."

Carrie Underwood Was 'That Girl' Meeting Randy Travis



It's hard to imagine that Carrie Underwood, who's co-hosted the CMA Awards and has her own holiday TV special airing next week, would ever get tongue-tied when meeting a fellow country superstar. But she admits that's exactly what happened when she met the man who would be her future duet partner.

"When I first met Randy Travis, it was a definite moment," Carrie revealed to Jeff Foxworthy on his radio show. "I felt so bad because I went up, and I met him, and you know that's somebody I've known since birth, so to get to meet him and to get to hang out with him and stuff like that, I just started telling him how important he was -- as if he didn't know -- to so many people. And I got all teary-eyed, and [said], 'I'm so sorry I'm that girl now!' He was so good with me."

Carrie adds that having the opportunity to duet with Randy on a version of his hit, 'I Told You So; had its advantages.

"I definitely consider him a friend now. He really is everything I thought he would be, which is so awesome when you meet somebody that you've always looked up to and they're just as cool as you think they should be."

Carrie's All-Star Holiday Special airs Monday, Dec. 7 on FOX.

Cover girl Carrie




Who’s on the cover of the World Almanac and Book of Facts 2010 ($12.99) alongside President Barack and Michelle Obama? It’s Oklahoma native, “American Idol” winner and all-around country superstar Carrie Underwood.

Underwood, originally from Checotah, is joined on the cover by the Obamas in an inauguration day photo and Mark Buehrle, the White Sox baseball player who pitched a perfect game this past year, just the 18th in Major League Baseball history.

What makes this Oklahoman beauty worthy of such company? Well, the World Almanac picks the most memorable people and events from the previous year and as one of the most successful winners of one of the most watched shows on television—it is only fitting that Underwood graces the cover, according to a media release.

Carrie Underwood: I'm More Than Just Blonde Hair and a Pretty Dress



The country singer insists there is more to her than meets the eye.

Carrie Underwood definitely didn't let us down when she put on quite a sassy, sexy performance of "Casanova Cowboy" at the American Music Awards on Sunday (and showed off her lush legs in a short get-up) -- but the country crooner insisted that there is much more to her than meets the eye.

"I get to sing from the heart and I don't feel like I've ever really done that before. Its therapeutic , not in a way like 'me and my best friend had a fight and I write about it.' Its therapeutic in a way that I'm a private person and one thing people say constantly about me is she doesn't say much," Underwood told us with regards to her latest album, "Play On."

"I'm a quiet person, I'm a private person and I feel like this is something that even in the songs that I picked that I didn't write, I feel like I do more then just scratch the surface and it is more than just blonde hair and a pretty dress. It's kind of in here (points to her heart). So it makes me feel really good .... that I feel like I've accomplished something more with this album that I haven't done in the past."

On the note of the past, it is hard to believe that it has been five years since the now 26-year-old won our hearts on "American Idol," and while she doesn't have kids of her own (yet) she feels just as grown-up as her childhood school pals.

"I feel like this is the time in life designed for maturity and most of the people I went to school with are married and have kids.... This is just a time for growth anyway and I feel like I definitely experienced a lot of growth from then to now. Maybe in a different way but I still feel sane and which is important and I feel like I've grown up a lot."

And even though music is no doubt Miss Underwood's "thing," could we be seeing her on the big screen sometime soon?

"I don't have an acting "bug." It's not something that is on my bucket list," Underwood said. "But if the right thing came up and we were approached and told 'hey, this would be something cool for you, something small.' I'm not looking to do any Shakespeare or anything major. Something small, something fun and it sounds like it would be a good time then I'd be in."

And apparently we're going to be seeing a totally new side of the "Idol" alum, having just taped a two-hour Variety Christmas Special (to air on FOX on Monday December 7th) in which she pretty much mocks herself and stars alongside the likes of Brad Paisley, Dolly Parton, Ryan Seacrest and David Cook.

"Kristin Chenoweth and Christina Applegate, we do a fun thing together. Three blondes get together and do something really cool," Underwood added. "We just took a lot of things from my life and incorporated them. My mom gets to have fun on the show. She actually is showing everybody where I get 'it' from ... if you will. It was just a lot of fun. We definitely wanted to show a different side of me and I definitely make fun of myself."
