at this point, has Carrie Underwood had a better post-Idol career than Kelly Clarkson?

Posted by prayformojo (aka mayhem) Apr 20 '10, 12:42

who would be next - Jordin Sparks?

Responses:

i wouldn't argue with Kelly's career thusfar ... - i'm not dead yet ! Apr 20, 12:58
also Carrie has won a gazillion awards -- nm - zork Apr 20, 12:51 11
- Plus she had her own Christmas special with retro-styling variety show elements. -- nm - Mop (222 lbs) Apr 20, 12:53 1
  - Plus she is 10x hotter -- nm - Jovian Apr 20, 12:56
- yeah, but most of them are country music awards, which isnt hard. -- nm - tRuMaN Apr 20, 12:51 8
  - Yeah, even Toby Keith wins country awards. nm - Dignan Apr 20, 12:54
  - Sure they are; country voters are often far more entrenched in their support of established acts. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 20, 12:53 5
    - which she now has become -- nm - zork Apr 20, 12:54
    - I disagree with this. Every year or two they pick a new artist and they win everything. i.e. Taylor Swift, Lady Antebellum -- nm - MDH Apr 20, 12:53 3
      - Lady A and Taylor Swift had monster years, to deny them would be absurd. Before them this year; Chesney won like 6 entertainers in a row - Will Hunting Apr 20, 12:55 2
        
        B&D kept winning because their was little competition for so long in the duo category -- nm - ty97 Apr 20, 12:59
        
        Haha point taken. 10 years in a row is just stupid. Pick someone else already! -- nm - MDH Apr 20, 12:58
  - *looks behind truman at his mantle, raises eyebrow* -- nm - zork Apr 20, 12:52
They seem to be on similar career-trajectories now, sales-wise. (Kelly needs to pull a Kylie/Madonna/Cher and put out a dance album) -- nm - ty97 Apr 20, 12:50 6
- I have heard that Kelly wants to be done. -- nm - Spawn Apr 20, 12:52 2
  - by you? -- nm - the narcissist Apr 20, 12:55 1
    - She is like a female Meat Loaf now, so no thanks. -- nm - Spawn Apr 20, 12:58
- I wouldn't mind seeing Kelly do that. Although, her last album was really solid IMO. -- nm - MDH Apr 20, 12:51 2
  - Her current sound is just played out (there were/are imitators as well, which doesn't help). - ty97 Apr 20, 12:53 1
    - Agree completely. -- nm - MDH Apr 20, 12:54
Successful? Yes. - nubby Apr 20, 12:46 7
- Word. -- nm - MDH Apr 20, 12:48
- unword. -- nm - Spawn Apr 20, 12:48 4
  - word -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 20, 12:49
  - Word. -- nm - Jim Apr 20, 12:48 2
    - You like it? - Spawn Apr 20, 12:49 1
      - I'd like ... - zork Apr 20, 12:53
- word -- nm - TFox Apr 20, 12:47
Easily. Underwood, Clarkson, Daughtry....all the rest. -- nm - Jim Apr 20, 12:45
Jordin Sparks isn't even in the Top 5. Her 2nd album was DOA. -- nm - MDH Apr 20, 12:45 2
- Jennifer Hudson is way ahead of her and probably even Fantasia -- nm - zork Apr 20, 12:52 1
  - Or you could always click the link below and see. -- nm - Spawn Apr 20, 12:53
1,000% -- nm - Spawn Apr 20, 12:45
If you base it on album sales, definitely -- (link) - ty97 Apr 20, 12:44 5
- Album sales Underwood has the edge although I give the touring edge to Kelly. -- nm - MDH Apr 20, 12:45 3
  - I don't know. They were practically giving away tickets here when she came through in the fall at a theater sized venue (not arena). - pmb Apr 20, 12:54 2
    - For Kelly Clarkson. -- nm - pmb Apr 20, 12:55 1
      - Her last tour wasn't big, but her summer tours a few years ago were massive. - MDH Apr 20, 12:59
- thank you, that's very helpful -- nm - prayformojo Apr 20, 12:45
I would say yes. -- nm - Shaun Apr 20, 12:43
I'd rank em, Underwood -- Clarkson -- Daughtry -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 20, 12:43
(considering only the winners) -- nm - prayformojo Apr 20, 12:43
