Carrie Underwood

Sign in to edit

Carrie Marie Underwood-Fisher, better known as Carrie Underwood, (born March 10, 1983) is an American country music singer, songwriter, and occasional actress. She is the main antagonist of the 2015 crossover film MYCUN and its upcoming 2023 sequel, in which she is voiced by Kristin Chenoweth.

Gabriel Garza's opinion is Carrie Underwood is being one of the worst singers along with Justin Bieber and he hates her so much (despite her being beautiful and popular), because she made beautiful, but way too horrible songs such as "Blown Away", "Good Girl", "Something in the Water", "Before He Cheats", "Little Toy Guns", "Two Black Cadillacs", "Jesus, Take the Wheel" and more.

In the movie, Carrie Underwood hired Miranda Lambert, Brad Paisley, Kelly Clarkson, Johnny Test, Barney the Purple Tyrannosaurus Rex, Dora the Explorer, Boots the Monkey, Caillou, Chae Cook, Arthur Read, the cast of Mother Goose Club, and the cast of Hoopla Kidz, along with her boyfriend Justin Bieber, as her henchmen/minions to take over any worlds, including the Hoodwinked! universe, the Despicable Me universe, The Legend of Zelda universe, the Ico universe, the Coralineuniverse, the ParaNorman universe, the Big Hero 6 universe, and worst of all, Gabriel's imaginary world, and also build her secret lair/building called Wooden Underwood Enterprises at the desert.

History[]

Early Life[]

Underwood was born March 10, 1983 in Muskogee, Oklahoma, the daughter of Carole (Shatswell) and Stephen Underwood.[1] She was raised on her parents' farm in the nearby rural town of Checotah.[2] Her father worked in a sawmill, while her mother taught elementary school.[3] She has two older sisters, Shanna and Stephanie.[4][5] During her childhood, Underwood performed at Robbins Memorial Talent Show, and sang at her local church, First Free Will Baptist Church.[6] She later sang for local events in Checotah, including Old Settler's Day and the Lion's Club.[7]

A local admirer arranged for her to go to Nashville when she was 14 to audition for Capitol Records.[6] In 1996, Capitol Records was preparing a contract for Underwood but cancelled it when company management changed. Underwood said of the event, "I honestly think it's a lot better that nothing came out of it now, because I wouldn't have been ready then. Everything has a way of working out."[8] While at Checotah High School, she was an Honor Society member, a cheerleader, and played basketball and softball.[9] Underwood graduated from Checotah High School in 2001 as salutatorian.[7] She chose not to pursue singing after graduation. She said, "After high school, I pretty much gave up on the dream of singing. I had reached a point in my life where I had to be practical and prepare for my future in the 'real world'".[9] She attended Northeastern State University in Tahlequah, Oklahoma, graduating magna cum laude in 2006 with a bachelor's degree in mass communication and an emphasis in journalism.[10] She spent part of one of her summers as a page for Oklahoma State Representative Bobby Frame.[11] She also waited tables at a pizzeria, worked at a zoo, and at a veterinary clinic.[9] Underwood is an alumna of the Alpha Iota chapter of Sigma Sigma Sigma sorority.[12] For two years during the summer, she performed in Northeastern State University's Downtown Country show in Tahlequah. She also competed in numerous beauty pageants at the university and was selected as Miss NSU runner-up in 2004.[13]

During the final, she sang with Rascal Flatts their song "Bless the Broken Road".[19] On May 25, 2005, Underwood became the season four winner.

Underwood confirmed that she began planning a new album in August 2013 and would start prep work sometime in 2014.[191] Underwood told Billboard, "After The Sound of Music, I feel like I can really buckle down and start working on the next album." Underwood also stated she has been planning another tour, which might be toned down from her earlier ones, stating, "I haven't thought about it much because I don't know what the next album is going to sound like, but I like just standing there and singing, too. I may take a different approach, a more simple approach on the next one. I loved the energy that rock concerts had," Underwood told Billboard.[192] Underwood is featured on Miranda Lambert's album Platinum, on a song called "Somethin' Bad".[193] Released as a single, "Somethin' Bad" reached No. 1 on the Hot Country Songs chart, becoming Underwood's 13th number one on the chart. The same week, the song vaulted to No. 19 on the Billboard Hot 100.[194] In early 2014, she performed on the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony, paying tribute to Linda Ronstadt.[195] Her performances were highly acclaimed by critics and even by Stevie Nicks, who performed with Underwood.[196] In September, Underwood headlined the 2014 Global Citizen Festival, alongside Jay-Z, No Doubt and other music acts.[197] Her cover of R.E.M.'s "Everybody Hurts" during her performance was highly praised.[198][199] She also headlined the 2014 Concert for Valor in November, alongside Eminem, Metallica, Foo Fighters and other music acts, where she was backed by the Singing Sergeants of the U.S. Air Force during the performance of "Something in the Water".[200] Underwood was asked by Bono himself to front U2's World AIDS Day (RED) Concert, alongside U2, Bruce Springsteen, Coldplay's Chris Martin and Kanye West, on December 1, 2014. She was joined on stage by U2 guitarist The Edge during a performance of her song "Change", which received acclaim.[201]

The Academy of Country Music awarded Underwood the Gene Weed Special Achievement Award, for her widespread exposure through NFL Sunday Night Football, the live NBC broadcast of The Sound of Music, her worldwide Blown Away Tour and her charity work with the American Red Cross and her C.A.T.S. Foundation.[202] At the 2014 Billboard Music Awards, Underwood won the Milestone Award, for which she had been nominated due to her chart success, specially her record of having the best starting run ever by a woman on the Country Airplay chart (18 top ten hits on the chart).[203][204][205] Time listed Underwood as one of the 100 most influential people in the world, placing her in the "Icons" category.[206] She won the award for Favorite Female Country Artist at the American Music Awards, marking her eighth career AMA.[207] She was named 2014's top female Christian artist by Billboard.[208] In 2015, at the 57th Grammy Awards, Underwood won Best Country Solo Performance for "Something in the Water", marking her seventh career Grammy Award.[209][210] At the 2015 Billboard Music Awards, she won the award for Top Christian Song for "Something in the Water".[211] At the 2015 CMT Music Awards, Underwood won three awards, including Video of the Year for "Something in the Water".[212] Underwood performed her single "Little Toy Guns" at the event.[213]

In September 2014, Underwood appeared on The Today Show, where she announced her first greatest hits compilation, Greatest Hits: Decade #1, which was released on December 9.[214][215] The album's lead single, "Something in the Water", became a crossover success. It reached No. 1 on the Hot Country Songs chart, becoming her fourteenth number-one hit on that chart and her second in 2014.[216] With fourteen number ones, she holds the record as the female country artist with the most number-one hits on the Hot Country Songs chart in the Nielsen SoundScan era (since 1991) in the Guinness Book.[217] The song also topped the Hot Christian Songs chart and has held the top spot for multiple consecutive weeks.[216] It debuted at No. 24 on the Hot 100 chart as well.[218] The song set and broke multiple airplay records on Country radio in its first week.[219] The compilation debuted with the biggest sales debut for a hits collection in any genre of music in more than six years and the biggest first-week sales for a female hits album in any genre in over nine years.[220][221]

Underwood returned to the studio to finish her fifth studio album in the spring of 2015.[222][223] On August 20, 2015 via live Facebook stream, Underwood announced her album would be titled Storyteller, and was scheduled to be released on October 23, 2015. The lead single, "Smoke Break," was serviced to radio immediately following the announcement.[224] Storyteller debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200, making Underwood the only country artist to have their first five studio albums debut at Nos. 1 or 2 on the Billboard 200.[225] In addition, the album debuted at No. 1 on the Top Country Albums chart, earning Underwood another record as the only artist to score six consecutive number-one albums on that chart.[226]
