Carrie Underwood Cleans Up

May 23, 2008 — Carrie Underwood has been highly visible the last week, winning the Top Female Vocalist trophy at the American Music Awards and performing "Last Name" on the "American Idol" finale. But TV is not the only place she’s been cleaning up.

One of the by-products of life on tour is that things go unattended at home. So when she gets back to her house in Nashville, Carrie finds time for a vacuum cleaner and a duster.

"When I go home, I don’t do anything," she told Dial-Global. "I clean my house. I’m a cleaner. And when I get home, there is like a thick layer of dust over everything, so I get home and I blow off some steam by cleaning, which my mom never would have thought would have ever happened, ‘cause I was the messiest child in the world."

That makes Carrie’s upcoming appearances at the CMA Music Festival a special deal, since she’ll be working but also sleeping at home. Carrie will perform June 3 on a Tuesday night edition of Opry Live, she’ll sign autographs at the exhibit hall, and she’ll also appear at Nashville’s LP Field on Friday, June 6, along with Faith Hill, Josh Turner, Miranda Lambert and Lady Antebellum.
