January 2, 2022,
Singing on American Idol can and often does change your life.
And ours. Possibly yours. As fans.
So many of us have developed deep fan love for some of our favorite singers that got their start there.
Carrie Underwood rose to prominence after winning the fourth season of American Idol in 2005.
She has never looked back since.
Ms. Underwood's debut single, "Inside Your Heaven", made her the only country artist to debut at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and the only solo country artist in the 2000s to have a number-one song on the Hot 100.
She achieved the second best-selling release by a woman in 2012 and won a Grammy Award with her fourth album, Blown Away (2012).
Drum roll please.
Carrie has sold over 70 million records worldwide.
As busy as she is, recently she just got busier.
Anytime a Global Super Star takes up a Residency Show in Las Vegas, where her fans can drive and fly to get closer to her, she will be busy.
Like Carrie.
Who keeps selling out. Having said that, she is making room for you.
If you are a Carrie Underwood fan, there is fantastic news.
