Carrie

Biography

Carrie Underwood, a country girl from Checotah Oklahoma, won American Idol in 2005. She delivered a number of brilliant performances that made Simon Cowell predict that she would not only win the competition, but would outsell all other previous Idol winners.

Carrie started singing at a very young age. At the age of three she sang with her local church choir. This love for singing stayed with her through high school and university. It was while she was completing her studies in Mass Communication at Northeastern State University that she travelled to St. Louis, Missouri to audition for American Idol.

Carrie’s post Idol career has so far seen her albums sales go multi-platinum around the world. It seems Simon Cowell may be able to predict the future after all.
