Carrie Underwoods Net Worth: How Much Does The Country Star Earn?

Country superstar and Oklahoma native Carrie Underwood rose to fame after being crowned the winner of American Idol’s fourth season in 2005.

Since her win, she has released some of the biggest country hits to date, including “Before He Cheats” and “All-American Girl,” with the former earning her a Grammy Award for Best Country Song.

Although she may have limited herself to one musical genre, Underwood is undoubtedly a pivotal figure in the modern American consciousness.

Underwood is one of the leading figures in the country music scene, having received a record-making 23 CMT Awards over her career as a singer.

What Is Carrie Underwood’s Net Worth?

According to Celebrity Net Worth, the 38-year-old is reported to have a net worth of approximately $140 million.

Reportedly, those who won the first couple of seasons of American Idol were rewarded with million-dollar recording contracts.

In Underwood’s case, she also received a Ford Mustang and is rumored to have been given access to a private jet.

Following her win, she signed with Sony Music Nashville and has since released eight studio albums. 

The singer-songwriter moved on to a contract with Capitol Records Nashville after five albums, and the remaining three sold over 65 million records across the globe across her 16-year career. 

A large percentage of her wealth comes from her many tours over the years. In 2016, her Storyteller Tour grossed $58.1 million, and this was just one of many that contributed significantly to her overall income.

Aside from her music career, her net worth shot up as the result of endorsement deals.

She earned millions from working with companies such as Target, Nintendo, Sketchers, Hershey’s, Olay, and Almay. 

In 2014 she worked closely with Nicole by OPI to launch her own nail lacquer collection. The next year she collaborated with Dick’s sporting goods and released her own fitness brand, called CALIA by Carrie Underwood. 

The Smoking Gun revealed that Underwood had sought $500,000 for every concert she performs, adding to her skyrocketing net worth.

Underwood replaced Faith Hill as the newest artist to perform the Sunday Night Football theme song in 2013. 

Since major cable networks charge millions to run ads containing the song during NFL games and the Super Bowl, her musical contribution has only added to her overall earnings. 

She even released a best-selling book, entitled Find Your Path: Honor Your Body, Fuel Your Soul, that made her a New York Times best-selling author last year. 

It sold over 10,000 copies within the first month of being released. 

Carrie Underwood’s Marriage And Family:

Underwood met NHL player Mike Fisher at one of her concerts in 2008. After a year of dating, they became engaged and were married on July 10, 2010. 

Her yellow diamond engagement ring was reportedly valued at $150,000.

The couple announced the birth of their first son, Isaiah Michael Fisher, in 2015. Their second child, Jacob Bryan, was born four years later. 

After their wedding, the couple purchased an eleven-acre mansion near Ottawa, Canada, in the Spruce Ridge district. They later sold it at a $2.2 million asking price. 

A decade later, Underwood and Fisher sold their 7,000 square foot Brentwood, Tennessee home for $1.41 million just before the pandemic.

In 2018, Underwood revealed she had suffered three miscarriages between the birth of her two sons. She revealed she channeled the pain she experienced in her album Cry Pretty, telling CBSNews:

“And throughout the whole process, you know, I’m writing and, like, literally right after finding out that I would lose a baby, I’d have a writing session, I’d be like, ‘Let’s go. You know, I can’t just sit around thinking about this. Like, I wanna work, I wanna do this.’”

Although Underwood had an incredible support system around her, she felt pressure to hide the truth from the public, saying,

“I would literally have these horrible things going on in my life, and then have to go smile and, like, do some interviews or, like, do a photo shoot or something, you know? So it was just kind of, like, therapeutic, I guess.”

In November 2017, she fell while taking her dogs to the bathroom. She broke her wrist and smashed up her face during the fall, requiring between forty to fifty stitches, as well as plastic surgery, to repair her looks. 

She warned fans that her face might look considerably different after these procedures but was supported throughout the recovery process.

Underwood has since made many public appearances, and fans have praised her makeup and design team for making her look flawless. 

Her Beliefs and Interests

Underwood is a devout Evangelical Christian, and she claims her belief was solidified following her third miscarriage.

She recalled in her CBSNews interview:

“And for the first time, I feel like I actually told God how I felt. And I feel, like, we’re supposed to do that. That was like a Saturday – and the Monday I went to the doctor to, like, confirm another miscarriage. And they told me everything was great!”

Underwood believed that was the first time she felt connected to her faith, adding, 

“And I was like, ‘You heard me.’ Not that He hasn’t in the past. But maybe, I don’t know, He heard me.”

She has been vocal about her love for animals, even becoming vegetarian at the age of 13 after not being able to stomach the thought of eating an animal. She has since stated she is now vegan.

PETA voted her the World’s Sexiest Vegetarian in 2005 and 2007.

Underwood began her residency in Las Vegas earlier this month, calling the concert series REFLECTION.

Based on her recent Instagram posts detailing some of her looks in Sin City, fans are ecstatic to see Underwood break away from the safe country look for a bit.

“It’s gonna be all about the rhinestones, all about the fringe,” she tells Entertainment Weekly. “I do change wardrobe throughout shows and whatnot anyway, so I feel like this is just gonna be a great opportunity to be able to do that. And we just want to have fun, we want the audience to have fun.”
