Carrie Underwood History
With Carrie's Pat Benatar song, "Love is a Battlefield",
such a different genre for her, an image change was
key. We went through a variety of options and came
up with this great satin top, with real South Sea
pearls. It was very open-backed, which Carrie wasn't
too comfortable with, so we just tied it in the back to
give a hint of skin, but made her more comfortable.
The jeans with a custom hand-painted design
lightened it up a bit. Carrie loves anything that
sparkles, and they had just enough to catch her eye.
She wore her own cowboy boots and the belt was
sent to her from a friend at home — she was so
excited to wear it. it really brought the whole thing
together.

Carrie Underwood, the country sweetheart who beguiled national television audiences with her strong voice and bright smile, is this year's "American Idol," defeating Southern rocker Bo Bice in the show's finale Wednesday night.
The Oklahoma native received more viewer votes than runner-up Bice, of Alabama, after Tuesday's final round, snaring the title and a record contract.
A tearful Underwood choked out a brief "thank you," then spoke with a song. She reprised "Inside Your Heaven," which both she and Bice performed in Tuesday's final round. The judges thought Bice outsang her; the voting audience obviously disagreed. A 22-year-old college senior, Underwood became the talk of her hometown of Checotah and the choice of fourth-season "Idol" voters as she delivered almost uniformly consistent performances each week |
"She has more of the star quality," said Cindy Monteleone of Chicago, who was among
hundreds of people who dropped by the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood to watch former
"American Idol" contestants arrive for the show's taping. Underwood couldn't compete with rock
'n' roller Bice on his style of music ("I'm not sure I'm loving the rocked-out Carrie," judge Randy
Jackson said after one attempt) but shone in her favorite genre, country. Friends and family
describe Underwood as a polite, quiet, small-town girl who is dedicated to music. Bo Bice of
Helena, Ala., would have been the oldest "Idol" winner. He brought an unexpected rock edge to
the show's usually mainstream pop style, shining on songs such as the 1970s hit "Vehicle."
"He's just so sincere and he projects that," fan Donna Leoni, who was pulling for Bice, said
outside the theater. The live two-hour finale was padded by clips from throughout the season,
interviews with the judges and the finalists, and concert and product plugs (the finalists
received gift cars, which were featured in a big-screen video close-up). There were also, finally,
songs. A series of duets featuring the top 12 finishers and guest artists included Anthony
Fedorov and Anwar Robinson performing with Kenny G; Scott Savol and Nikko Smith with
George Benson; and Vonzell Solomon with Billy Preston. During the season, although onstage
performances were unaffected, an offstage drama played out involving judge Paula Abdul and
former contestant Corey Clark. Clark claimed he and Abdul had an affair while he was
competing in 2003 and that she coached him on how to do better on the show. Abdul has
called the allegations "lies" and an attempt at character assassination. In a bit of hard-edged
comedy Wednesday, "Idol" fired back at ABC News' recent "Primetime Live" detailing Clark's
claims. TV newsman Steve Edwards presented a satirical report, "Bad Judgment," which
purported to reveal Cowell's "secret relationship" (the punch line: it was Cowell's love affair with
himself). "We won't let the truth get in the way of our ratings," the faux report said in an obvious
dig at ABC, although the network and the Abdul controversy weren't specifically mentioned.
"American Idol" thrives on controversy, with disgruntled fans complaining over the years about
overloaded phone lines, technical glitches and untalented contestants with amazing survival
skills.
