Carrie Underwood Honored as Highest Certified Country Album Artist of the Century
Underwood has achieved many accomplishments throughout her career from creating multi-platinum albums to entertaining the masses on her tours.
Carrie Underwood is solidifying her current reign as queen of country music at the moment with her latest honor: the highest certified country album artist to debut this century from RIAA.
Not only is she a fan favorite in the format, Underwood also finds success in the numbers her music has earned throughout her multiple releases over her career. Her debut, Some Hearts, has hit the eight times platinum mark, with other releases following suit with their multi-platinum statuses as well. Her current record, Storyteller, was recently certified as platinum itself.
As a nominee for the CMA Entertainer of the Year category, Underwood also puts on quite the show for every tour she goes off on. Her Storyteller Tour has been seen by 800,000 fans alone, with many more to come throughout the next few weeks of her time on the road.
Her iconic voice and beloved personality also have taken Underwood far as many people adore her approach to her career and the causes that hold a special place in her heart. Working to encourage young women in sports through her athletic apparel brand, Calia by Carrie Underwood, the country star always takes time out of her busy schedule to help bring a light to the things that mean the most to her outside of her music.
Underwood is still currently touring throughout the fall, but will take a quick break soon to host the 50th Annual CMA Awards in Nashville on Wednesday, November 2, at 8 p.m. ET on ABC.
