10/18: Carrie Underwood’s promo blitz
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Can Carrie evade the sophomore slump like Kelly Clarkson did with her upcoming “Carnival Ride”? Given how big her first CD was, it’s highly unlikely she’d be able to break 6 million in sales again. Her first single “So Small” is a top 10 country hit but it’s no “Jesus, Take the Wheel.” She does look great on the cover:

Carrie has also been recently spotted with “Gossip Girl” star Chace Crawford.
And this quote from “Seventeen” magazine:
“It bugs me that because I’m a blonde from Oklahoma who sings country music, people think I’m stupid. People don’t give us Oklahomans credit. We don’t ride around in covered wagons! We have indoor plumbing. We’re smart, good people. I won’t say I’m business savvy, exactly, but I have common sense.”
In that article, she also denied ever having a real relationship with QB Tony Romo. If you say so.
And Ken Barnes at “Idol Chatter” has a list of Carrie’s numerous TV appearances. These include “GMA” on October 23, “Regis” on the 24th, “CBS Early Show” on the 26th, Leno on the 29th, “Ellen” on Nov. 5 and Letterman on Nov. 13. Phew!
Bo Bice’s “See the Light” coincidentally hits Wal-Mart the same day as Carrie’s. He is doing a small radio tour but his spotlight has dimmed to the point he won’t be showing up on “Ellen” or “Regis & Kelly” anytime soon. Sorry, Bo fans!
