Carrie Underwood News (Page 2)

Carrie Underwood and Chace Crawford appear to be much more than a fling.

"His whole family loves her," a friend of the couple told Us Weekly. "They are really perfect for each other."

Just how close is this couple? After the American Idol winner spent Thanksgiving with the Gossip Girl star at his parents' home in Dallas, she joined his relatives on part of her Christmas vacation, too.

"They spent Christmas together and had a wonderful time," a source reported.

Underwood, meanwhile, has no regrets about her July split from Tony Romo, the tabloid also said.

"She thanks her lucky stars she isn't with Tony anymore!" said a source. "She thinks it's a joke he's with Jessica Simpson and sees him as a player. Carrie and Chace call him 'the player' and Jessica 'the ditz.'"

It's hard to argue with those assessments, isn't it?

Carrie Underwood and Hannah Montana star Miley Cyrus will help celebrate the new year on December 31 by joining an American tradition:

They'll perform live from Times Square as part of Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve.

The Jonas Brothers will also be on hand for the event that's hosted by Dick Clark and Ryan Seacrest.

Fergie, Akon, Natasha Bedingfield and others will beam in from Hollywood.

Is she looking for her next professional athlete crush?

A few months after Carrie Underwood was rumored to be dating Tony Romo, the American Idol champion shows up for an NHL contest.

Guess she's officially one of the 16 remaining hockey fans in the country.

Carrie Underwood may have natural singing ability, but it takes a bit of OCD for her to keep in such great shape.

"I'm slightly obsessive-compulsive about what I eat, more than I should be. I write down everything I eat," the American Idol champ dishes in Glamour magazine's January issue. "I started doing it last year. And in the last year is when I've gotten more healthy and lost weight."

When it comes to make up, the lovely, talented singer also takes great pains to look good:

"I have a giant makeup case, more makeup than any girl should have in her lifetime," she said.

What do you think of the Carrie Underwood remake, "Do You Hear What I Hear?"

American Idol fever was boiling at the 35th Annual American Music Awards last night.

While the striking writers left four-time host Jimmy Kimmel to make up his own jokes, American Idol alum Carrie Underwood, coming off her wins at the Country Music Association Awards earlier this month, picked up three more trophies.

"This is one heck of a night," she gushed, accepting the award for favorite country album. She also won favorite country female artist and an audience text-in award for favorite artist.

Chris Daughtry, the other nominated American Idol, joined his eponymous band, Daughtry, at the podium three times as they won favorite pop-rock album for Daughtry, as well as breakthrough artist and adult contemporary artist.

"Wow. I can't believe we're in the category with Justin Timberlake and Linkin Park. It's pretty awesome," Daughtry said.

We agree. Congrats to both these amazing artists!

Another week, another cute picture of Carrie Underwood and Chace Crawford.

Looks like this American Idol champion and Gossip Girl star are still acting like a cute couple, as they take Carrie's puppy for a stroll. Good for them!

Here's news on what ought to be the highest grossing music tour of 2008:

Carrie Underwood will join another country superstar, Keith Urban, on a co-headlining, 24-city tour, starting January. 31.

The tour, named for a combination of the titles of the two artists' latest albums, is called the “Love, Pain & the whole crazy Carnival Ride Tour.”

Tickets go on sale December 1.

Another awards ceremony, another haul for Carrie Underwood.

The American Idol champion won a pair of trophies for her single, "Before He Cheats." It took home the Country Music award for Single of the Year, while Underwood also won Female Vocalist of the Year.

Underwood was humbled, telling the press:

“God has blessed me with so many wonderful things. If you told me a few years ago I had been nominated with the people I’m nominated with, I would have called you absolutely insane.”

Carrie Underwood rules.

Carnival Ride is the number-one album in the country, having sold a staggering 527,000 copies during its debut week.

This is the American Idol winner’s first top-ranked album. We're guessing it won't be her last, however.

Carrie's new disc bests her previous effort, 2005’s Some Hearts, which debuted to 315,000 copies sold in its first week. Chace Crawford must be so proud!
