Three-time Grammy winner and reigning ACM and CMA Female Vocalist of the Year Carrie Underwood launched her headline tour, the “Carnival Ride Tour,” on February 18 and enjoyed sell-outs on the first week of shows. Carrie and special guest Josh Turner performed for over 40,000 fans.

The “Carnival Ride Tour” will continue into 2008 coinciding with Carrie’s co-headline dates with Keith Urban on the “Love, Pain & the whole crazy Carnival Ride Tour,” which kicked off January 31.

Between the Pittsburgh concert on February 22 and the Providence concert on February 24, Carrie and her band headed to New York City to perform on “Saturday Night Live” for their first live show since the writer’s strike. The show pulled in their best ratings of the past two years.

Carrie’s current album CARNIVAL RIDE, which contains the smash hits “So Small” and “All-American Girl,” was certified double-platinum within 2 months of its release. Her debut album, SOME HEARTS, was recently certified 7x-Platinum, becoming the best-selling solo female country debut in RIAA history. With this certification, SOME HEARTS now also surpasses all other releases as the all-time U.S. top-selling album by any American Idol contestant.

Watch Carrie as she "tries on" different careers in her latest video for "All American Girl," right here on americanidol.com.

One chilly afternoon in mid-January, as American Idol Season 7 was about to get underway, a small group of young girls along with American Idol season 5 finalist Lisa Tucker gathered in Hollywood for a photo shoot. With Lisa as inspiration and mentor, the girls were modeling the first items in a new clothing line–LYRIX by Lyric Culture—that celebrates the music and style of the fresh faced, wide eyed hopefuls belting it out for Paula, Randy, Simon and America.

The brainchild of singer/songwriter turned clothing designer Hanna Rochelle Schmieder, LYRIX is rock n’ roll clothing line for girls, and an offshoot of the premium adult contemporary apparel line Lyric Culture. The LYRIX/American Idol collection features everything from T-shirts, denim skirts, jackets, and vests to the ever popular velour hoodies and track outfits.

The first LYRIX tees feature American Idol imagery and feature classic pop and R&B hits performed on American Idol such as "RESPECT," "Bad Day," and "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun." The line also features contemporary hits like "A Moment Like This," made famous by Kelly Clarkson, who just so happens to be a huge fan of Lyric Culture’s adult line. In fact, Idol alums Carrie Underwood and Chris Daughtry are fans as well.

That line, founded in 2006, features designs inspired by the songs of legendary artists like the Beatles, Marvin Gaye, David Bowie and Janis Joplin to name a few.

“Connecting fans to their music through apparel is what LYRIX is all about, and since American Idol has become synonymous with great music and great fashion, it just seemed like the perfect fit.” She continued, “now girls worldwide can dress like an Idol and express themselves through their favorite songs with LYRIX.”

For those wondering how they too can wear the LYRIX of their favorite Idols, visit LYRIX  online to find out more.
