American Idol Carrie Underwood received six Academy of Country Music nominations this morning, including Entertainer of the Year! Carrie is the reigning Entertainer of the Year, and if she wins that category again, she will be the first female in Academy history to capture two Entertainer of the Year trophies.
Carrie is also nominated as an artist and composer for Song of the Year for Cowboy Casanova, as well as Vocal Event of the Year for I Told You So with Randy Travis. In addition, she is nominated for Top Female Vocalist and Album of the Year for Play On. If she wins Top Female Vocalist, it will be the fourth consecutive year she has won the category. Carrie also won the 2006 Album of the Year for Some Hearts.
Just a month ago, Carrie took home her fifth Grammy Award for Best Country Collaboration with Vocals for I Told You So. Her Play On Tour kicks off next week in Pennsylvania. Find a tour near you.
Congratulations, Carrie!
